Amanda vs legato?

[Scott Ehrlich]

I'm pricing some lto autoloaders for a RH5 server and am looking for 
ultra-reliable backup software for it.   I'm currently looking at the Sun 
C2 Autoloader with LTO3 magazines.

Amanda is a free option, but I also know many people highly recommend 
legato.   What are insights from this list?   Obviously, amanda is free 
(wrt redhat support), and legato costs a lot more, but it would be 
paid-for support from EMC.

>From the operational and support perspectives, what are the list's 
recommendations?

Thanks.

Scott
