Informal and Unscientific Backup Exec 2012/2014 poll

I know there's hundreds (maybe thousands) of unhappy BE2012 users out there.  I am one of them.  Quick recap:  Installed 2012 in 8/13.  After 6 weeks (3 of them with a Backline engineer), I still couldn't get BE2012 working consistently.  I rolled back to 2010R3 (and what a nightmare that was as there's no conversion for the relative few jobs that did finish successfully). 

My maintnenace agreement is coming up and I am trying to get my director to change vendors.  But, he states that he spoke to two of his peers at a recent convention and that "Yes, the interface is bad, but BE2012 works". And that all the post that I've been seeing is just people whining... and that I should just suck it up and learn how to use 2012... (I find out later that these two peers had a product manager come on site to get their BE2012 working, not to mention they have a big IT staff).

Now I know it's human nature to complain and seldom do we take the time to post a complement that a product works. So... are there still any BE2012 users out there that are willing to defend BE2012/2014 and give it a thumbs up?  Please vote as I am curious if I'm just another whiner...  I just want to see if there is even 25% who are willing to defend and prove my boss's point that I'm just whining.

Please only vote if your giving BE2012/2014 a thumbs up.  I think there are enough post here to prove that there are hundreds of unhappy ex-BE2012 users. 

***To all the Thumbs down voters.  Your preaching to the choir.  Thanks for voting, but I'm trying to see if there are at least 50 users willing to defend BE2012/2014.  This way I can either continue to "suck it up and learn to use 2012..." or tell my boss to spend 5G to get a product manager from Symantec to come into our office and get BE to work or go with Unitrends...
