"On the exchange server, you do not have the best options for adjusting your mailbox. This feature is not included. Also, disaster recovery backups can be improved. Some other solutions, such as HP Data Protector, have more features."

"As it costs $125 per workstation per year, something which is above the price of what the competition is charging, the solution is definitely too expensive."
