Item level restore for SPS 2003 and MOSS 2007 from Symantec

Symantec Corporation is now offering Backup Exec Agent for Microsoft SharePoint Portal for both SPS 2003 and MOSS 2007.

This product using Backup Exec 12.5 media server allows item level backup and restore. This is not as major an issue in 2007 as it was in 2003 but the price looks good and SharePoints own story on backup and recovery remains rather weak. This product is work evaluating. Problem inpart is is low price, under $2,000 dollars, that is a great price but you want get a lot of Symantic time on it.
