We used Acronis and it was a nightmare as was their off-shored support model. Never again... Wouldn't touch them with a 10 foot pole. Switched to Iron Mountain LiveVault which backs everything up over the wire. It has basic reporting functions but not extremely granular. http://ironmountain.com/services/democenter/livevault/player.html
Does Iron Mountain LiveVault allow for bare metal restorations? I didn't see it after gleaning the site.
In my new job, we're using BackupExec pulling the data from ~100 servers to a SAN and then to tape. Iron Mountain comes in every day to to replace our tapes for offsite storage.
For the few boxes we have that aren't configured in HA pairs or clusters, we periodically do a snapshot with Acronis specifically for the bare metal restoration ability.
