Xosoft versus DoubleTake

[backupguy]

Hi all,

Can any one post a comparison or advises on Xosoft and DoubleTake? What is the advantage of each of them over the other one?
I have looked on google for long, but nothing really answer the above questions.

Thanks in advance for your Help.

Great article, and thanks for posting it.
However I would like to point out a few things that need to be updated.
1. Double-Take DOES have a Linux product.
2. Double-Take has two types of full server protection. SRO and FFO - they are both included as part of the core DT install product.
3. With the SRO and FFO products, Double-Take does do real time registry replication.

Thanks for the great work, dont hesitate to email me if you have any questions!

Hi thebigshow25,

Thanks for your comment.
You are right SRO and FFO fix the replication of the registery part. I will edit our comparison to comodate for that soon, but I don't see any Double Take product for Linux any where. Can you please update us on that.

Thanks a lot again for posting.
Best Regards,

Sorry for the delay in responding, the announcement for a Linux product was actually just officially released. Its been around as a product since last year thought...
Also, a couple of comments about the 'registry protection' portion...
XOSoft only protects the registry ONCE during the initial sync.
Double-Take protects the registry with both the SRO product and the included FFO (full server failover) and its real-time registry protection just like the data on the server.
