I've sat through the standard Veeam sales pitch so I know the angle they take it. I can't see how agents add cost. The processing hit by the agent is so miniscule, by the time you add it up to...

It seemed that way, that's why I tried to steer it back on course with my "Why I did end up picking AppAssure over Veeam" story. I figured it's decent food for thought in a review thread about...

Jenner, were you offered custom binaries? My fear is that every time I upgrade to a new build I'm going to have to call support and ask for new binaries for my system. There seems to be too much room...

I've actually got 5.3.1.60393 the day it came out. The Dev team has since created custom binaries to try and fix issues within that build. I wish it was as easy as just upgrading...

I just heard through the grapevine, that AppAssure support just brought on 20 new hires, and they're looking for 35 more! That should dramatically improve the support call wait times for those that...

I'm also curios about v5. My company is also on v4.7 & we are using all AppAssure partners. We recently converted a 2TB (mirrored) iSCSI NAS to a 6TB Raid 5. Formatted it using 64K & LACP on...
