After installing and uninstalling the software twice,and having a computer engineer assist me, the program was still unoperable with my computer. I decided to use another method for hard-drive backup.

I'm a lawyer so between the two of us you had two overeducated people who should have been able to configure this software to work for my XP workgroup (which means buying the basic program and several extra client licenses).
Noooo.
Many, many hours and attempts later, I was unable to get the software to run a weekly backup script successfully ... Read More

Folks - be very careful buying Retrospect backup software.
This stuff is not for kids!
The documentation is every compicated and the support material - help stuff is written for IT professionals, not the average user.
I am a experienced computer user with multiple computers, I can rebuild a computer, install networks, install network printers, setup outlook and have multiple computers. But the support stuff written on the Retrospect - Dantz web site is written strictly ... Read More
