Before you count on Tech Soup, be sure to check whether your non-profit is covered. We've recently found that, as a non-profit Hospice, we were not eligible for the program.

If you're a non-profit, you can sign up with Tech Soup (http://www.techsoup.org/) for donated software. I got a full (all the whistles, lights and bells) version of Backup Exec 2012 for $115.00. There's no support or upgrades, but still....

Subject: [NTSysADM] Backup software needed for schools or non-profits...

I'm looking for decent backup software for our school. I know some software companies will deeply discount sales to schools or non-profits, and I'd like to focus on them to save money.

We're running Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V, so would need to be able to back up virtual machines. We also have an Exchange 2010 server, so granular restore of Exchange would be nice. Full image restore capability to dissimilar hardware would be a plus. We currently backup to an eSATA dock which appears as a simple drive to the OS, which I think most software these days should be able to handle.

I welcome any suggestions!

Thanks,

Mike
