It looks to me a backup software issue.

Doing a network backup is fine, as long as the bandwidth and transfer 
rate is enough to complete it in time.

AFAIK Dantz makes software targeted at small and midsized business, 
maybe their software have issues with "large" directories with a lot of 
files and folders - Windows itself has some too. Higher level tools like 
BackupExec should be designed to handle complex and large backups.
