In my opinion, the best software for disaster recovery of Windows servers is TBMR from Cristie & TSM Client from IBM. It allows to make full/incremental backups for SYSTEMSTATE, drive C: and other drives top TSM Server (with point-in-time disaster recovery). We were using a few versions and now we are at TBMR 6.2.1 & TSM Client 6.1.0.
