The Windows 95 client software is delivered in a professionally done InstallShield package. The average Windows user who can install his own software will be able to install it with no problem. The Windows 95 client will not back up a file while Word 6 has it open, but will get the automatic backup file if there is one. The interface for the software is a GUI using X on Linux. It was a bit disconcerting when I first saw it but is internally consistent, and I quickly learned to use it.
Tool tips make the software much easier to use.
Before you can even do a test backup, you must define a number of objects. You must define tapes to the system. Provisions are made for writing labels with bar codes for use with robot arms. Tapes are combined into tape pools. The software rotates the tapes within each pool as needed.
