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.
Boomchi Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to setup, good support, has good indexing and file-level restore features
The primary use case of this solution is for backing up EC2 instances and RDS instances The most valuable features are the indexing, the file-level restore, and the replications between regions. Also, the ability to integrate it with the information management studio, and the backups for RDS…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is also easy to manage and work with."
"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."
"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."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution is stable."
"The setup is very simple. It takes 15 minutes."
"It is very easy to integrate. You can do it very fast."
"It's user-friendly, especially for taking incremental backups."
"The product is good for volume-level backups."
"I would rate Veritas CloudPoint a ten because it's done everything it says it'll do, and we've really not had many problems with it."
"The most valuable features are the indexing, the file-level restore, and the replications between regions."
 

Cons

"Microsoft currently saves only two months of conversation history, and it would be better if Veeam could focus on backing up more than two months of conversation data."
"They need to enable the encryption of backups so that nobody can gain access unless they have encryption details."
"The pricing model is unnecessarily confusing and could be simplified."
"The capacity storage is a challenge everywhere in the backup industry. The general feedback people are coming back to about this is that there is no deduplication based on it."
"The solution could offer better reporting."
"The solution is costly."
"Pricing is an area for improvement, and I would rate it at five out of ten."
"They should include some more options to send alerts in existing monitoring software."
"The product needs to improve its file-level or granular-level backups."
"I don't care for the pricing or capacity license model from Veritas CloudPoint because there are cases where we back up the same data multiple times, yet we still owe from a capacity standpoint based on how much data is managed in our backups."
"They are niche with the work that they do, but they should have more integration with NetBackup and the reporting is something they should be working towards improving."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is strictly subscribed on a per-user basis."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 is a subscription-based solution."
"We are talking about a third party solution, so there is a licensing fee."
"I think it's a fair price. It's around $36 per user, so I think it's a fair price for our customers."
"It is not the cheapest solution in the market."
"This is not a stand-alone product and requires a standard Veeam license for your organization in addition to the cost of the solution."
"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 pricing is expensive."
"When comparing to other solutions, the price is at par."
