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 reliable backup and restoring of the Salesforce data is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature for our customers is the restore functionality."
"This is an easy-to-install easy-to-use solution for backing up Office 365 email."
"It is a perfect, mature product."
"The solution provides good backup services for Microsoft 365."
"The most valuable feature is the data backup functionality."
"When we did the comparison, we found it to be a cost-effective solution, and it included everything."
"Veaam technical support, from my perspective, is one of the best technical support I've ever engaged with."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with our Teams environment."
"At the moment I think we have all we need for backing up our Office 365 emails reliably, we have a solid solution with this product so I don't see any reason it would have to change."
 

Cons

"The anonymization feature can be improved."
"There is need to do the same for the other SaaS applications."
"It would be a great improvement to be able to recover cover a VM straight to on-prem."
"Its price could be improved."
"Currently, I'm working for Huawei and they dropped the support for Huawei, so that's an issue for us."
"The solution is costly."
"The solution needs to introduce more features."
"They should include some more options to send alerts in existing monitoring software."
"The solution needs to improve its speed."
"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

Information not available
"Its cost is pretty high. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing."
"The pricing model makes this solution more expensive than it needs to be."
"From our perspective in South Africa, our biggest challenge is the exchange rate from the South African currency to the US dollar. This makes it a bit pricey for us. However, compared to other backup solutions available, I would rate the pricing at a nine out of ten. For the servers, features, and functionality you get, it's worth the money. Of course, we'd always prefer things to be cheaper, but we also understand that you have to pay for proper functionality. So overall, it's not badly priced at all."
"The licensing price is quite high. It's expensive."
"The cost is a bit on the high side."
"It is an expensive product, and there is an additional cost involved in purchasing hardware. I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
"Veaam Backup is licensed per mailbox, which customers like because it's per user and so they don't have to pay for shared mailboxes."
"The solution is very, very, very, cheap."
