I would say it *is* the right approach! To make a fair comparison you have
to get information from all competitors. Otherwise you will make the
decision
Nearly all answers on this thread point to the TSM vs. NetBackup
comparison report from Progressive Strategies Inc. And all miss that the
documents from Progressive Strategies are somewhat shifted:
- they are made on IBM's request
- competitive products are briefly described while IBM products are widely
presented
- IBM products have only advantages over what-is-to-be-compared product
- look at copyright page for one vs. one product comparisons - "The
following terms are trademarks or registered trademarks of IBM ..." +
"Other company, product, and service names mentioned may be trademarks or
registered trademarks of their respective companies."
My opinion is derived from two (no more, no less) "reports" - IBM TSM vs.
VERITAS NetBackup and LTO vs. SDLT. I cannot comment the company itself.
It is possible Progressive Strategies Inc. is famous somewhere but is
unknown here (where I work and where our company's customers are)
TSM is a very good product and I think does not need such
mis-advertizement.

Another way to look at it can be Veritas vs TSM at Veritas web site. It
might not be the right approach, only a way to see the differences two
ways...
