Ensures data protection and supports SAP consistency while reducing costs
Veeam Backup for Google Cloud provides significant cost reduction with NETIO Cloud's offering. It serves as a reliable solution for backup and reporting capabilities about the health of the backups. Even though I am not utilizing all tools and options, it meets my comprehensive requirements and allows backup of emails as well, making it a versatile tool.

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

Pros

"The application backup is excellent, and using Veeam for backing up Kubernetes environments is a valuable tool."
"Veeam Backup for Google Cloud provides significant cost reduction with NETIO Cloud's offering."
"I find Veeam to be a good tool for backing up Office 365 and virtual machine environments."
"Veeam Backup for Google Cloud’s most valuable feature is data backup and replication."
"I recommend it to other companies due to its reliable solutions, significant cost reductions, and comprehensive functionality."
"Dealing with cloud solutions is simple and removes many headaches from troubleshooting and implementing the solution."
"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 beneficial thing is that it is admin-friendly, with no complicated menu structure, and it is straightforward when it comes to doing a backup or a restore."
"Veeam Backup gives you the option to backup your data from the cloud to on-premises."
"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."
"It's a good solution that works and we can rely on."
"It is a really good and intuitive solution; Veeam has developed a fantastic product, and I've never seen anything that I don't like about Veeam."
"The solution is stable and, with the options available, it's the only one we've used."
"It is very easy to integrate. You can do it very fast."
 

Cons

"The licensing could be improved, particularly by providing a 'pay-as-you-go' option through Azure, AWS, or GCP portal itself."
"There could be a feature to take a snapshot for version backup."
"Some of the prerequisites for Veeam are challenging."
"I do not have notes for improvements."
"We tried to use Veeam for our DRP. It was complicated to use and did not help us with our DRP needs due to our internet connectivity at that time."
"While I don't have a use case in mind, it would be great if they could integrate more automation capabilities into the solution."
"We would like to have a single management console for all of our backups."
"Technical support could be improved."
"It requires quite an amount of infrastructure. You have to set up the instance, and you need to know quite a bit about Microsoft 365 authentication. For some customers, it is a challenge."
"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."
"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."
"The solution should have backup integration features, not just concerning mail but also when it comes to such solutions as SharePoint."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is affordable."
"It is strictly subscribed on a per-user basis."
"I'm not sure about the price, but I think it could be lower."
"It is not the cheapest solution in the market."
"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."
"We are talking about a third party solution, so there is a licensing fee."
"The solution is not expensive."
"The cost of Veeam Backup is $28 per user for one year."
"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."
