Cloud backup has simplified protecting hybrid, endpoint, and office data while cutting overhead
Areas for improvement could include having SaaS backups for Office 365 to back up on-premises. The majority of customers who speak about Office 365 backups want to back up Office 365 on-premises, which means if they have SaaS backups, they need a copy of that cloud data in their data center. Because everything is happening on the Microsoft cloud and Azure, if this feature is supported in a simple way, it would be very beneficial. Another idea for improvement is flexibility to be supported across different hyperscalers. Currently, it is supported in AWS. I understand that this may be irrelevant for customers because everything at the end of the day is managed by Dell. However, some customers may have subscriptions that they need to use. If there were another option in Azure or something similar, it would provide additional flexibility.
