Sounds pretty interesting. How long have you had this software in
production? Have you seen any major/minor issue due to its use?

The original products was provided by http://www.duocor.com
The new one, which is first becoming available publicly, is from
http://leapfrogsoftware.com/ I don't know if the auto-restore on
reboot
flag is available yet in this one, I am working with early versions
right
now

To answer both questions at once:
The tool we used to use is fading away and a new one is emerging, but
the
concept is the same in both cases. The main drive partition (i.e.
C:) is configured as the admin wants it and the hidden/backup version
of it
is created. You can set the flag to restore that hidden version on
demand,
on a failure, or on every reboot.
In the case of a public library scenario, you might set it to restore
itself
at every reboot and then reboot the server after the library closes
each
night.
In terms of local data that needs to be updated, you simply update that
info
and set the flag to recreate the hidden backup on this new version.
We deployed this scenario on laptops for a major financial institution.
They
send a user home with a corporate laptop with a C: and a D: drive. The
user
can store data on D:, but every time they reboot the C: is restored to
the
clean state.
