Ensures efficient backup and recovery processes
The Protect and Restore features are very helpful. I can set up tags to include specific assets in our environment for backup. When I include those tags in my search, the assets are easily found and can be added for backup. I love the restore feature and how easily I can restore files, folders, or an entire image.

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

"It has improved our disaster recovery footprint; previously, backups were only stored on premises, and having an offsite backup improves our reliability and security."
"Working with the Clumio/Commvault team has been a very good experience."
"Clumio has a straightforward setup"
"We now have the peace of mind knowing that our entire AWS infrastructure is fully backed up into an air-gapped environment."
"I believe the solution is very scalable. We can continuously add mailboxes and sites."
"The product is easy-to-use."
"It was easy to set up."
"We are able to store it on various cloud providers such as Amazon S3, Rocket, Azure, and IBM Cloud. It can also do on-premise integration, and we are able to use storage from on-premise. We are also able to recover data. It is a really good and intuitive solution. Veeam has developed a fantastic product. I've never seen anything that I don't like about Veeam. It looks like a very complete solution. It is really mature, simple to use, and quite interrogative. It also has APIs for writing scripts."
"Veeam is affordable and end-to-end configuration is straightforward, whether you're going from source to destination or vice versa. Retrieval is also easy."
"The most valuable feature is that we don't need different agents to back up our files from different accounts."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 has good security, and I also like the process they use for backups."
"This is an easy-to-install easy-to-use solution for backing up Office 365 email."
 

Cons

"They need to improve their SQL backup services"
"If one administrator wants to delete something in 365, another admin must approve it."
"The solution should have backup integration features, not just concerning mail but also when it comes to such solutions as SharePoint."
"We attempted to use it for our DRP, however, we found it too expensive and complex, so we decided to use it just for backup."
"The customer service and support response time can be improved."
"In some instances, a customer is not necessarily backing up Microsoft 365. For instance, they might be backing up a large Oracle database. It would be nice if they could tweak it to compress the file, so it's easier to transfer a huge file."
"The installation could always be a little bit easier. You do need to be a bit technical."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by reducing the time it takes for backups. I have mentioned this to Veeam and hopefully, in the next version, it will be a faster backup."
"The documentation for the installation is good. However, if you are new to the environment the installation could be difficult. The first time we did it it took approximately four days."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"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 solution is very, very, very, cheap."
"It is strictly subscribed on a per-user basis."
"There is an annual license required and a per-user fee for this solution."
"I have a per-user license for the number of users and the mailboxes that I have."
"The pricing is expensive."
"The pricing is middle-of-the-road compared with competing products."
"The cost of Veeam Backup is $28 per user for one year."
