Featured Reviews

SanjayMishra - PeerSpot reviewer
Lightweight, easy to install and configure, and it does its job automatically
One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console. Currently, Druva can manage only one Office 365 tenant per console. As a customer, I should be able to manage all Office 365 tenants from a single console. This is one product feature I am looking for.
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.

Pros

"All the data is well encrypted. In addition, the data is split into pieces so that if an endpoint is attacked or compromised with any kind of ransomware, the compromised machine can be relocated or restored. All the data that was previously backed up can be restored from the cloud. It has a lot of security features. Druva currently offers only the cloud version on AWS. Being a cloud solution, Druva goes by a lot of security compliances and provides a security portfolio. People are very skeptical of the data security in cloud solutions, and Druva has given consideration to that. It has some good geo-location features. If a machine is lost, when the machine is switched on and connected to the internet, that machine can be geo-located and tracked. It also has got the geo-wipeout feature. If someone tries to take out the data from a lost machine, they won't be able to do that. The moment an IT admin comes to know that the machine is no longer with a user, he or she can auto-run the geo-wipeout feature so that the data cannot be read by any third party. Duality replication is a unique thing about this solution. Everybody's data is not backed up if the data is common. Similar data is not backed up from other machines. The data backup also happens very smoothly. The bandwidth choking is very less. When the data is getting backed up, the users do not even get to know. There is no impact even when the users are not using high-speed bandwidth."
"The way they handle the backups is pretty good."
"The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
"It's incredibly fast."
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"It is easy to set up. You can use some functions to make sure you get the maximum bandwidth to do the backup. It has an option to bypass Microsoft network limitations and things like that."
"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 tool is easy to use and straightforward regarding restoration and creating backups. It's user-friendly, providing results and sending alerts when something goes wrong."
"Deploying Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 was very easy. I did the installation by myself, without any help. I spent one day on the installation of the product, and all weeks are working normally."
"The most valuable aspect of Veeam is its stability."
"One of the valuable features is the ability to restore a specific email. For example, if a user has deleted an email and they would like that particular email back we are able to restore it."
"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."
"It is very easy to integrate. You can do it very fast."
 

Cons

"One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console."
"It would be good if bare metal backups were possible."
"The one area that needs to improve is the pricing."
"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 backup time is very poor. The backup runs continuously. It goes on from morning till night. The system performance also becomes very poor when Druva inSync is running."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"To make Druva inSync better, they can implement additional DLP."
"Pricing is an area for improvement, and I would rate it at five out of ten."
"It would be a great improvement to be able to recover cover a VM straight to on-prem."
"While Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is a highly convenient product, there is room for improvement in its integration with Microsoft 365."
"Currently, I'm working for Huawei and they dropped the support for Huawei, so that's an issue for us."
"The installation could always be a little bit easier. You do need to be a bit technical."
"Its price could be improved."
"This solution does provide the option to choose a different target of storage."
"We have found that there is a limitation in this solution where it only takes the backup of users who are using Office 365 Enterprise email IDs. We have many users in management and approximately 50 other users who are using Office 365 of which Veeam is able to capture the backup. However, for the other users who are on the local email server at that time, the solution is not able to capture the backup."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is thirty-five dollars per year or three dollars per month per user."
"The pricing is good."
"The pricing of Druva inSync is very high as compared to other cloud backup solutions."
"The price is quite good, It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
