Efficient data management but struggles with new hardware limitations
We use it for many different purposes, including SQL, files, and other applications. We are considering a solution to replace it due to limitations with new hardware that it does not support The data application is working well, and it does manage to match data when using the data option. There…

Backup and recovery options integrate smoothly while affordability remains a challenge
My relationship with Veeam is that I am a reseller and system integrator. The support for both cloud-based and on-premises infrastructure from Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 impacts my data protection strategy because that's the reason we are using Veeam. Veeam is a platform that supports both on-prem and cloud. It's a single pane of glass that we can support both, which is one of the good reasons we are using Veeam. The key benefits my organization has experienced with Veeam's integration of SharePoint, OneDrive, Exchange, and Teams within its data protection framework are that single licensing is one of the things customers prefer to use because it's very easy for them to manage. I would rate Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 overall an eight on a scale from 1 to 10.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The data application is working well, and it does manage to match data when using the data option."
"In terms of data recovery, both the performance and reliability have been excellent."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with our Teams environment."
"It is very easy to integrate. You can do it very fast."
"One of the valuable features is the ability to restore a specific email. For example, if a user has deleted an email and they would like that particular email back we are able to restore it."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup an eight out of ten, with ten being easy."
"The support offered by both Veeam and our third party supplier is excellent."
"It’s amazing how the solution helps restore old data."
"It has got all the features. You can restore a mailbox based on an email or a calendar or based on all the emails. A user can also get access to restore the mailbox."
 

Cons

"They should include the capability to back up on-premises environments."
"There are limitations with new hardware where it does not support failover and does not support the three-star bank group."
"We have found that there is a limitation in this solution where it only takes the backup of users who are using Office 365 Enterprise email IDs. We have many users in management and approximately 50 other users who are using Office 365 of which Veeam is able to capture the backup. However, for the other users who are on the local email server at that time, the solution is not able to capture the backup."
"The solution could improve by having the ability to back up without an agent installed on the system."
"I have not really seen an ROI from Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365. On the customer side, we don't really see the ROI."
"We tried to use Veeam for our DRP. It was complicated to use and did not help us with our DRP needs due to our internet connectivity at that time."
"It's hard to predict the usage on the storage. I need to make some estimates for customers in terms of how much storage will be needed on the cloud, and this is always tricky. It would be helpful if they could help us estimate storage or simplify the estimation portion."
"If clients are backing up onto tape, Veeam's newest versions don't really deal with that."
"They need to enable the encryption of backups so that nobody can gain access unless they have encryption details."
"We use a yearly subscription. However, I believe the price could be lower."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The SaaS platform offers many benefits; the licensing structure is suitable for monitoring and controlling users' storage space."
"We are talking about a third party solution, so there is a licensing fee."
"Its cost is pretty high. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing."
"We decided on Altaro because, from the point of view of the total cost, Altaro looks cheaper than Veeam. Veeam has a lot of costs that are not clear when you start it, which makes it less flexible than Altaro, but only after half a year, you can be really sure that you made a good decision."
"The price of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is inexpensive. We have a license to use the solution."
"The cost of Veeam Backup is $28 per user for one year."
"The cost is a bit on the high side."
"The pricing model makes this solution more expensive than it needs to be."
"Veaam Backup is licensed per mailbox, which customers like because it's per user and so they don't have to pay for shared mailboxes."
