Pros:
-- Easy to setup and operate
-- Free 60 day trial helps you test out the service and become familiar with its operation
-- Granular Recovery Technology allows easy restoration of accidentally deleted files, emails, or documents.
-- VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V virtual server data protection that is easy to manage
-- Integrated online backup for flexible off-site data protection
Cons:
--Some of the menus are a bit densely packed, such as the Job Setup screens
-- This is not a product for single server environments (there is a separate version for Microsoft’s Small Business Server that is more appropriate)
