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.

Pros

"Overall, the solution is okay, the way the system is built is very good, the product offers good stability, the solution is scalable, we have found the technical support to be helpful, and the pricing of the solution is very reasonable and not expensive."
"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 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."
"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."
"We have seen an ROI, we have been saved from incidents by this solution many times, we've avoided corruption of data, and we are not losing time thinking about how data could be protected."

Cons

"The installation could always be a little bit easier. You do need to be a bit technical."
"This is a cloud solution, and the speed can be slow sometimes."
"The support for deduplication appliances is an area to consider for improvement."
"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 it could rebuild the data without pulling down the entire chunk, it would be an improvement."
"They don't have native integration with deduplication of storage."
"While there really is nothing wrong with the product some small improvements in the interface could make it even easier to use."
"Pricing is an area for improvement, and I would rate it at five out of ten."
