Default Backup solutions for PST Files

My users all have a .PST files on their local hard disk for archiving
purposes.

I'm looking for a software that could automatically copy, once a week,
the .pst file to a network drive after outlook is shutdown.

I'm looking for something that can be used and setup without any user
intervention.

I've looked into microsoft .PST backup Add-in, but it seems to rely on
user intervention to backup the .pst and it also seems to be hard to
deploy centrally (i.e.: only works on the profile it was installed to).

So, I'm curious to see what everyone else is using out there.

Thanks

Hi Oliver,

We are using Mobiliti (www.mobiliti.com) product, continuity@work to
backup our pst files. We have setup a schedule to backup at certain
intervals. The process itself is transparent to the user. This product
also has a built in deployment feature which made it very easy for us
to deploy to all our users.

Good luck.

Default Backup solutions for PST Files

Hi Dolly,

thanks for this information but "Qafyg" ask for this back-up program, not I

We donīt use any kind of special PST backup software. We copy our PST files
from our local harddisk every night to a Windows 2003 Server and make the
backup with the default Windows 2003 backup software.

If we forget to shutdown our Outlook on our workstations to unblock the PST
files, we wrote a freeware program to close Outlook on our workstations:

Quit Outlook on :
http://www.publicshareware.de/outloo...utilities.html (sorry untill
now only in german)

My meaning: Sometimes it is easier to do it with "freeware" instead of
additional software.
