    Avail Solutions LLC's Integrity 2.0 backup software offers flexible, multitiered storage management and dynamic resource tracking capabilities that can streamline data backup in small and midsize networks.

    Version 2.0 gains more device support and better integration with backup appliances. Its dynamic resource allocation capabilities offer robust backup flexibility as well. However, its interface was a bit confusing in eWEEK Labs' tests, and its storage module licensing could make it expensive for large distributed environments.

    Integrity 2.0 shipped this week, priced at $395 for the Enterprise version, which we tested. Smaller organizations will likely find what they need in the $199 Integrity Basic Backup version, which supports a single hard disk and tape drive vault. Unlike other vendors, Avail does not charge client licensing fees.

    Disk storage modules are priced at $189 per 100GB of storage, and tape module prices are based on media type supported, including VXA, AIT, DLT/SDLT and LTO. Integrity 2.0 also supports heterogeneous Windows, Linux and Unix environments.

    Like other backup vendors, including BakBone Software Inc. and Computer Associates International Inc., Integrity 2.0 uses a client/server model to back up and recover data.
