Backup has protected our office data and now restores individual emails while admins configure settings
Although Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 is a Backup as a Service, it should give slight leverage to the admins to do more of their own configurations. When it comes to Software as a Service, we do need to agree on certain things, as we do not have much control over the software. If Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 can improve, it would be better. It could be slightly better, but it is acceptable. As long as support is provided in a timely manner, it is good. I cannot tell it is fully bad or fully good. If I were to give a rating of one to five, I might give 3.5 to four. Rather than giving a help database, which is an ocean of information to search through ourselves, we should be able to open a ticket and have them guide us on how to do it. As an end-user, different levels of admins exist—a fresh admin and a more experienced admin. They need to encourage us to open a ticket quickly, and from there they should guide us straightforwardly with the steps to follow to achieve the desired outcome.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The platform's most effective feature is quickly recovering virtual instances into a separate environment."
"The most beneficial thing is that it is admin-friendly, with no complicated menu structure, and it is straightforward when it comes to doing a backup or a restore."
"I believe the solution is very scalable. We can continuously add mailboxes and sites."
"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."
"The product offers good stability."
"This is definitely a product that I can recommend."
"It's a good solution that works and we can rely on."
"The setup is very simple. It takes 15 minutes."
"It is easy to use and easy to recover files."
 

Cons

"They could add more intelligence features in the workflow through automation."
"With Veeam for Office 365 for companies that require long-term retention, they often complain about the capacity storage it might take."
"We will be evaluating whether we will continue using this solution in the future because it is not practical to keep it when it does not do the backups of all our users' information requiring us to have two solutions."
"A while back, I had some trouble using the agent. It might be a problem with older versions. Sometimes, I also have issues installing or making backups from the console to that type of operating system."
"The implementation of this solution needs to be improved."
"They could include WAN acceleration to compress the traffic to make things faster."
"Support is quite bad. They advise too late. When we call for support, it really does take far too long for a response."
"The integration and the coverage of all the features related to the protection of Teams could be improved."
"When you add a new site for backup, it gives you a notice that there is a new site, but the way you select that and configure that could be slightly better. It works, but it is not always very clear. For example, for the URL, you need to hover over the title or the name of the site. You should see it immediately on the screen. It should have a better user interface for selecting what you want to back up so that you get a more clear overview of the sites that are there and the ones that you want to combine in a backup. Its user interface should be more user-friendly. It has a lot of scrolling and doesn't give you a complete overview when needed. That's the main thing why it is not very user-friendly. It should have a better user interface."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The additional cost is cloud storage, which the public cloud provider charges."
"It is an expensive product, and there is an additional cost involved in purchasing hardware. I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
"The solution is very, very, very, cheap."
"The cost of Veeam Backup is $28 per user for one year."
"It is not the cheapest solution in the market."
"I think it's a fair price. It's around $36 per user, so I think it's a fair price for our customers."
"The licensing price is quite high. It's expensive."
"Its price is a little bit high, but it is a fantastic solution. It is more expensive than NetApp."
"There is an annual license required and a per-user fee for this solution."
