For a large corporation we images each desktop with Symantec's Ghost utility but I was curious if there was something better and less expensive. We have a small network, 30 desktops and 4 servers which will soon be upgraded. I want to backup each device and create an image of each desktop. Are there other tools anyone would recommend?

Have a look at acronis trueimage (www.acronis.com). The price for Workstations is $50.-- and for windows Server $700.--. You can download trial versions.

TrueImage is a fantastic product and faster than ghost.

In reality, it is a nearly perfect implementation of Linux and a wrapper for some of it's tools. The learning curve for Linux is steep and it is a major investment in time. If your time is worth anything to you, TrueImage is still cheaper.

When I'm running Linux, I use the linux tools. In windows I use TrueImage--I have tried them all.
