Featured Reviews

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.
Chong Khing  Lee - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"Druva inSync is very easy to use."
"Druva is offered as a service so that we can access it from any enterprise-based browser or URL. We also have a single sign-on, which allows me to log in securely. Hence, I can easily access the system, configure it, perform day-to-day monitoring tasks, and check for any issues or configurations needed. Overall, it's a simple and easy-to-use tool with a high-speed and straightforward interface for management."
"It has a straightforward installation."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
"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."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"It's incredibly fast."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"The most valuable feature is that we don't need different agents to back up our files from different accounts."
"The solution provides good backup services for Microsoft 365."
"For data security, we rely on Veeam Backup for Teams and it is quite effective."
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is the ease of use. You only need to create a folder in your drive and it's as simple as dragging and dropping files to store them."
"The scalability of Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 is very good."
"The solution is easy to use. It's very simple and clients find it very easy to find all objects and things they need with the Veeam Explorer."
"The product is easy-to-use."
"This covers the areas of backing up Office 365 that Microsoft does not include in its standard routine."
 

Cons

"The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward"
"The solution takes a lot of time during restoration."
"It would be good if bare metal backups were possible."
"One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console."
"The support team generally needs to be more proactive with technical and general suggestions."
"I would like to see security improved in the next release."
"To make Druva inSync better, they can implement additional DLP."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"One area that needs improvement is the pricing of Veeam Backup, as it can be expensive at $28 per user for one year."
"If you use a device to back up with compression and duplication, the solution doesn't work."
"When using Veeam Backup for Office 365 when there is a server that's running, I have to have a hard drive installed on it. For example, if I want to use another storage solution, I can't incorporate it very well. If I want to use SMB or other protocols I cannot use them with the Veeam Backup for Office 365. They have the support in the other Veeam Backup and Restore solutions, but it doesn't support it in this solution. Hopefully, in the future, they figured it out."
"If clients are backing up onto tape, Veeam's newest versions don't really deal with that."
"If it could rebuild the data without pulling down the entire chunk, it would be an improvement."
"I'm very satisfied with Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 and would continue using it if it were up to me. However, my management is considering alternative solutions due to issues with our storage solutions."
"The customer service and support response time can be improved."
"In the next release, it should have direct export to tape drive abilities and NDMP support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Once you decide to go with this product the cost can be worked out with the vendor."
"The pricing is good."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being very cheap and ten being very expensive."
"The price is quite good, It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"Out of all the solutions we evaluated, Druva inSync was the most affordable."
"The product is fairly priced, I would rate its pricing five out of ten."
"The cost of Veeam Backup is $28 per user for one year."
"This is not a stand-alone product and requires a standard Veeam license for your organization in addition to the cost of the solution."
"We looked at a few cloud options. When we did the comparison, we found it to be a cost-effective solution, and it included everything."
"We have 2000 users and pay about $10,000. It may be a little bit more per year. We have an education institute and may have fewer expenses."
"I'm not sure about the price, but I think it could be lower."
"It is not the cheapest solution in the market."
"The cost of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is $19 for one mailbox."
"The cost is a bit on the high side."
