I remember editing some Symantec material on this product several years ago when it first came out. Its primary purpose then was to allow an IT administrator in a networked business environment to easily create one "golden image" (operating system and applications that users will need -- or updates to same) and then "replicate" that image across the network to whatever PCs require installation/updating.

Mind you, my info is old, but I doubt that the product has changed so substantially that it is backing up your files.
