Tivoli Storage Manager
- Tivoli does well running file-level backups, but Exchange is clunky and restores are really hard. With no SharePoint agent, if you use SharePoint you will need another product like AvePoint DocAve. The web-based GUI console is MUCH improved over earlier versions, but you will still need to be a command-line guru to make Tivoli do everything, and local (node) config files still rule. This product was originally ported from Unix and retains may of its 'nix roots.

All-in-one backup solution
- It can be used as a disaster recovery solution when you have the right configuration (either replication or tape copies in a safe location). This way it can be a lifesaver for any company.
- It can bring back the information you need if you are hit by ransomeware.
- It is also needed if you are accounting for user error, sometimes people delete the files they need by accident and without a backup solution they are out of luck

Pricey for the feature set, but solid at what it does.
- Tivoli is not cheap. If you need it, spend the cash, but know there are less expensive alternatives.

TSM for your Enterprise Backup
- Simple, care free backups, especially if you do not use tapes and do not have to manage those.
- Very fast restores as the libraries have everything available online.
- Ease of locating the necessary data to restore

Alternatives for the assurance of information
- Because it is a support tool to improve the assurance of information, an ROI is not easily divisible.
- Data recoverability is tough to quantify. Having a reliable solution can mean EVERYTHING to your business. Tivoli provides us with that.
- It does take about one FTE to maintain all our mass storage, which includes Tivoli.
