Featured Reviews

Nikola Uvalic - PeerSpot reviewer
Streamlines our processes and makes everything more efficient and less prone to errors
While CodeTwo Backup for Office 365 is generally great, there is some room for improvement in integrating with Office 365's restore options. Additionally, there is room to improve in managing email signatures. If it could make handling email signatures simpler or offer more features, that would be a plus. An additional feature that could be valuable is a search functionality within Office 365 tenants for specific mailboxes or logs related to events like receiving certain emails or bounce occurrences.
Ahmad Mohammed EL-DADA - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides server-side and backend application support but needs better interface
The last update made the interface look somewhat unfamiliar to users. Data recovery was technically flawless at some point. However, an update after a merger changed things. The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward as before, and we're facing some challenges. Specifically, one user encrypted their data, and since they have left the company, we cannot decrypt it. This has resulted in a loss of access to that data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution offers ease of configuration. With a wizard, you run through the setup, and everything is configured correctly. Additionally, creating a job is very easy, and overall, the ease of access is excellent. Also, it allows you to use the backups to migrate to another Office 365 environment."
"The tool's porting of targeted sources in CSV was a nice feature. The integration and connection between the tenants were smooth. We could access a template CSV as well."
"Almost all the features of CodeTwo are valuable for Microsoft 365."
"The most valuable feature of CodeTwo Backup for Office 365 is its restore functionality."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
"It's incredibly fast."
"One of the most valuable features is it is available on the cloud, so I do not need to make a firewall. Second, the backup speed is outstanding. The third thing is that the section policy is very good and gives you a lot of flexibility and granularity regarding what you need to back up."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"Druva inSync is very easy to use."
"The way they handle the backups is pretty good."
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
 

Cons

"There are two major improvements. First, the UI seems outdated. Second, the tool should support cloud backups. I suggest using Windows Server 2016 or 2019."
"There is room to improve in managing email signatures."
"I attempted to modify the XML files in the product's configuration to enhance the speed and efficiency of the process. While the KBs and documentation were well-written, technical aspects related to speed adjustment parameters were unclear."
"The customer service and support could be improved. When communicating via email, they sometimes take until late the same day to respond."
"If I could have an accelerator or something to back up the solution on the cloud, that would be helpful. Also, it would be helpful if the accelerator could give me a buffer of a couple of days for any kind of immediate recovery on an offsite."
"The support team generally needs to be more proactive with technical and general suggestions."
"The speed could be better."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"The solution takes a lot of time during restoration."
"To make Druva inSync better, they can implement additional DLP."
"The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward"
"Druva inSync is very high in price. A general customer cannot afford this solution. Even if the product is good, people cannot afford such a high cost just for taking the backup. This is a recurring investment, and the customers have to pay for it every year. Druva is also yet to develop the channel and the channel or partner commitment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's pricing was reasonable. I don't remember the amount per mailbox, but the cost seemed fair, considering we had around 300 mailboxes to migrate and needed to do it in a rush over a weekend. We didn't have many choices for people to operate the migration."
"The price is quite good, It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"It is an expensive product for the middle class or SMB customers in India. A lot of top-level big companies also cannot afford this solution. During the license period, one can download the entire data from the cloud without paying any additional cost. This way the data can be easily recreated from the stored data when a machine is lost or the data is compromised."
"It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"The pricing is good."
"The pricing of Druva inSync is very high as compared to other cloud backup solutions."
"The pricing is thirty-five dollars per year or three dollars per month per user."
"Out of all the solutions we evaluated, Druva inSync was the most affordable."
"Once you decide to go with this product the cost can be worked out with the vendor."
