problems
[edit]I consider this article too promotional.
- The company name is used too often
- there are too many short paragraphs
- there are excessive product details , e.g. ". The enterprise license includes one backup server running on Ubuntu, up to 250GB capacity for backup to disk, " -- the size of the disk is a specification subject to frequent change, and not encyclopedic information.
- advertising phrases are used,m e.g. " comes bundled with everything needed to implement a backup solution" -- this is not encyclopedic language
- Too much use is made of quotations from reviews.

- Although the fact that its earlier products were reviewed in RSs shows permanent notability, the coverage here is still a little disproportionate, and make it more likely to be attacked by those who do not realize this principle. This is particularly true since some of the praised features may be either fairly common, or obsolete. I suggest clarifying it by reorganizing into chronological order. It's an interesting question of style to what extent to quote from reviews in the text of an article. This is a skilled job of working it into the text, but some people prefer to do it in the footnote. This might reduce the effect of the emphasis on older features. Remember that the element of notability is the fact that there was a substantial review, not that the review praised it. It would be equally notable if they had panned it. This is the difference between promotionalism and NPOV. DGG ( talk ) 06:20, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
- I made some revisions to the text. Also, to address the advert template, I removed (I believe) any unnecessary mentions of the company name, excessive product details, etc. Please let me know what you think. Thank you as always!Michael Leeman (talk) 23:53, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
