I'd love to see some software that works. Veritas cost $900 for a small business server, and failed the one time it was needed.

Notice I mentioned three vendors and none were Veritas. Yes Symantec owns Veritas now but their LiveState Recovery is a Symantec product more similar to Ghost. Here's the best bang for the buck though, and what I'm mostly using with great success:

I first heard about it in Windows Certified magazine (which gave it a glowing review), and it is so easy I did the first full backup and restore we tried without even looking at the manual. It does allow individual file restores from inside the image as well, making it all the backup software you should need, although as a secondary precaution we do still backup to tape just in case. Check with them, they'll give you a full working copy to try out if you ask, at least they did for us, I just had to sign something saying I wouldn't illegally dupe or use long term without purchasing.
