Before you pay for Arcserve UDP
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: a single tier at $25/month. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Arcserve UDP against the tools that do have one before committing.
Arcserve UDP runs on windows, linux, and is published by Arcserve of Eden Prairie, Minnesota. The full record is on the Arcserve UDP review, and the rest of the category is under best backup tools.
