My background is mostly Linux, so I'm used to using open source stuff, and avoiding vendor lock in. That's probably part of the reason I went with something less "enterprisey" to begin with. they already had "Backup Exec" in place for other backups, which was an absolute pile of shit that failed all the time with zero info about why. Back in 2005 when I set up backup4all for some stuff for the company I was employed at. I usually didn't like them much, with their closed proprietary formats, and often very very limited/opaque interfaces or CLI tool to actually inspect archives easily. So yeah, I'd say that the vendor of Backup4All is smaller than the others you mentioned.Īnd in general from my limited experience with those "enterprise" backup systems. To me terms like that don't hold much technical weight, it just seems to be about how big the vendor company is. Probably true, but I guess you really need to define what "enterprise class" actually means. I talked to a few people and none of them think it is in the same class as Acronis, Veeam, Unitrends, or other enterprise class backup solution. But at the time I was looking for something for backing up Windows boxes, and the options were more limited back then.
So I can't really remember that much about it. Yeah I vaguely remember using it back in about 2005.
