The following is a list of issues, including those issues attributed to third-party products, known to exist at the time of release.
Farm backup and restore issues
If you use a scheduled farm backup with differential backups to back up a SharePoint component and also use another product that uses Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) to perform a backup of the same component, the Metalogix SharePoint Backup differential backups succeed, but cannot be used to perform a restore. This happens because use of the third-party product invalidates the data that VSS uses to create differential backups.
In the same way, if the other product supports differential backups and you perform a full backup with Metalogix SharePoint Backup, you may interfere with the other product.
If you use multiple products to perform backups, you should only use full-farm backups in Metalogix SharePoint Backup.

Granular backup and restore considerations
You rely on the backup and restore solution that you select to safeguard the data that is stored in your SharePoint farm. For you to trust the backup solution that you use, you need to fully understand the abilities and limits of the tool that you select. Metalogix is committed to giving you the information that you need to know about Metalogix SharePoint Backup.
Metalogix SharePoint Backup can back up both SharePoint farm components and granular SharePoint objects. Farm component backups and granular backups work differently, and have different advantages and limitations. Your needs and your SharePoint environment may call for you to use one of the backup methods and not the other. Most SharePoint 2010 farms use both methods, because they are complementary, rather than a direct replacement.
