If you have not already joined the large number of organizations using Bacula today, ask yourself the following questions before deciding whether you should keep your existing Backup & Restore solution, or move to a new one. Bacula Systems is here to help you with our get a free assessment of your current Backup & Restore infrastructure offer.What are the storage costs imposed on you by your backup vendor? If you take a close look to your storage hardware investment you'll likely see that your current backup solution lacks the right features to optimize this heavy investment. With Bacula Enterprise Edition's features and plugins, you can increase your storage hardware capacity by up to 60% without additional costs! If you want to know how, just look at some of our solutions that will fit your immediate needs, including Incremental Accelerator for NetApp plugin, San Shared Storage plugin, Delta plugin or NDMP plugin. Did you consider how fast your data will grow in the coming years and its implications on your backup and restore costs? We know this is a difficult question to answer, however, unlike other vendors we are not afraid to ask and work with you to answer it. Our pricing model bans any extra charges for data volume. We will not get back to you to assess your data volume retroactively and send you unexpected invoices which can cost up to US$ 8'000 per Terabyte! Choosing Bacula Systems means choosing the Backup & Restore vendor who will not take advantage of your data growth and will not lock you in, to make huge revenues at your expense. For an example of what's possible, read the SDV Plurimédia case study. With Bacula Systems, your costs are reasonable controlled! Are you free to choose your servers? Are you deciding the type of servers you use, just because your Backup & Restore vendor charges you based on the number of CPUs? Bacula Enterprise Edition's pricing model is transparent: we do not count the number of CPUs your servers have, hence we do not charge you extra! With Bacula Systems, you are free to choose the right servers for your infrastructure. Learn more about our software compatibility. Who is the person within your organization who manages your licenses? Do you think it is normal to waste time, energy and resources just to understand your Backup & Restore vendor's price list and license terms? Are you questioning why you should pay this license per feature, and per client, and per number of CPUs... and per Terabyte? We believe IT departments should not have their precious time wasted. With Bacula Systems, we offer an annual subscription including Bacula Enterprise Edition, technical support, patches, updates and upgrades. It's as simple as that! Who manages your Account? Why do you have to contact 3 or 4 or more different people from the same vendor each time you have a sales, pre-sales or licensing question? Don't you think this is a real waste of your time? With Bacula Systems, you enjoy one contact who can centralize all your questions and answer them directly or with the help of internal resources. Don't hesitate to contact your Bacula Systems sales manager to get further information on our Centralized Account Care. What is your total cost of ownership (TCO)? Do you know how much you are spending, overall, for your solution? And, above all, do you know how much you will be paying in 1, 2 or 3 years? With Bacula Systems, you pay an annual fee for your subscription and nothing more. When you renew this subscription, you already know how much you will pay, with no surprises. In terms of Support, is your experience good? Here is a quote that says it all: “While a reputed analyst has seen material improvement over the last year, the perception of (a named vendor's) customer support is highlighted as an issue by many customers”. Bacula Systems' excellent reputation is based on a high quality, highly scalable, robust solution complemented by high quality, responsive Technical Support - all of which translates to an industry record customer renewal rate each year. What are your expectations in terms of Support? In other words, what is your vendor's response time and organization if a technical problem does not allow you to restore crucial data for the continuation of your business? Gold level subscription from Bacula Systems guarantees 1 hour response time in case of Severity 1 Level technical issues, without asking you to pay for an extra premium support access.

In a budget restricted situation, what would it mean to your organization if you could free up 50% of your Backup & Restore budget and associated storage costs? IT budgets are constrained, despite growing IT infrastructure needs. Every IT department needs to look at its ''run rate'' costs to see if it can free up money for new projects. This is not easy. Is your existing vendor willing to work with you to find a satisfying solution for both parties to help you achieve this goal? Bacula Systems does not sell a license, does not charge by number of CPU's, nor by data volume. Bacula Systems offers different levels of subscriptions that include Bacula Enterprise Edition, technical support, patches, updates and upgrades. This allows you greater financial flexibility as well as a better Backup & Restore solution; all with the knowledge that you will be supported when you need it and will be paying a fraction of your existing vendors' costs.
