windows backup comes with all operating systems

<div>
Some tape drives come with single-server versions of a backup application. &nbsp;Look for this.<br />
<br />
The backup included with Windows didn't support backups over the network, to the best of my possibly poor knowledge, and its scheduling was pretty rudimentary. &nbsp;If you need a full-featured backup, you may just have to pay for it. &nbsp; In particular, you want to make sure it has agents that can successfully and reliably back up your running applications such as databases, Exchange, SharePoint, etc., backup virtual machines if you have them, maintain an accurate catalog, schedule backups from many machines, etc. <br />
<br />
Among those applications are Backup Exec, HP Data Protector, Yosemite Backup, CA ARCserve, and a host of others that aren't cheap, but which do the job you need done.

freeware backup software similar to symantec backup exec for windows 2012 server

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
