Network Backup Software Recommendation???

We have 5 computers connected to a server. Server is running Windows Small Business Server 2003. All computers running Windows XP Pro. We would like to backup files on all computers from the server. If possible, we would like to do disc images of networked computers from the server once / month???

What software do you recommend for ease of use & integrity of backup files?

Does Acronis True Image only do image backups? is it possible to get the image without running from each individual machine? ideally we would like a program that can run routine daily backups and the image backups. i understand the amount of space that will be needed for images.

thanks!

It will allow you to backup specific directories and specific data instead of doing a full disk image, You can also install a client on the workstations and install the server on your SMB server and centralize the backups from there.

Do you know if I need to get Acronis True Image Enterprise for the server & Home for each individual computer or is the "small client software" part of the Enterprise package?
