I want to know which backup solution is better of the following three R1Soft CDP Ent Edition Symantec Backupexec Novabackup xSP

For what I've read, R1SoftCDP is the way to go and recommended in a lot of blogs, because it is fast, it is reliable, and it has a very low bandwidth consumption when backing up due to its backup algorithms. Although it is not cheap.

r1soft also is light on disk i/o for backups. I wouldn't touch anything made by symantec in general, and don't have experience with novabackup.

Backup for workgroup

Hi +1 for R1soft, have used it for years now and it just works.. have done a few Bare Metal restores, which can be slow, but at the end of the day it gets your server back should the worst ever happen. Incidently I also use "Control Panels" own backup solution as a 2nd backup just in case.

R1Soft. We have got nothing but good experience with this. Issues happen, but they are very fast in resolving them.

Can you name a few issues you have come across while using R1Soft?

Backup sometimes fail with the following message "Backup failed to cleanup from previous interruption". We need to contact them for a resolution then.

I suggest you can use R1Soft CDP Ent Edition. I used it and it high performance disk to disk backup software.
