Purchasing Question

[mrmuggyd]

New to the Backup Exec forums.  I'm looking at Backup Exec to backup my Windows 2008 R2 server.  Windows Server Backup doesn't give me the flexibility that I need.  Looking on-line at a couple of sites, NewEgg being one of them.  I found Backup Exec for under $50.  It just the media...Do I need anything else to run the software?

Thanks in advance,

Doug

You also need a serial/license for the media server and any Options you want to run (Database agents remote agents etc)

With just the media, if you install, you will be in 60 day Trial Mode.  All options and agents will be available for 60 days.  After that nothing will work unless you have entered a serial on the media server
