I am currently evaluating the possibility of Offsite backups and was wondering if someone could give me some ball park figures for the following details. I dont want to speak to sales people at present until i know whether it will be a go in my environment.
We are looking to backup around 25TB of data. I am after price per GB, plus price per server if licensing exists.
The system MUST be able to do the following:
- bare-metal restores of servers as well as file level backup and restore.
- support a mixture Linux and Windows (physical and vm) environments.
- cover systems such as Hyper-V, Exchange and SQL.
- support local storage cache
We would prefer to use a single 'backup server' to carry out the backups, but an agent based solution would also be considered.
I am looking for 'average' pricing so i can build a simple pricing model for the business case. Actual decision of the software will be made on based upon the quality of system following thorough trials on a development network (including bare metal backups).
I am open to suggestions on the software.
Thanks in advance
Paul
