Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 Reviews

Most of the time, the solution is primarily used for a VM backup from VMware.

The ease of use is great. 

The integrations with the storage vendors are useful. We have snapshot capabilities and stuff like that.

The setup was straightforward. 

It is a stable solution.

The scalability is great.

Currently, I'm working for Huawei and they dropped the support for Huawei, so that's an issue for us. The full storage is not supported anymore. We probably will need to evaluate another backup vendor now.

We would like a full Linux-based solution. They still use the management platform on Windows. It should maybe also have an appliance deployment or something like that, that is pre-configured.

I've been using the solution for about ten years now. 

It is quite stable and reliable. There are no issues. It doesn't have bugs or glitches. 

There should be separation of your backup network with your protection so that you have additional protection from ransomware. Potential new users should integrate it and look out for ransomware capabilities.

The solution scales well.

Mostly, I am the person on the solution. There may be an administrator as well. 

I worked a little bit with Commvault, and with Data Protector, however, that was almost ten years ago.

The integration with VMware was much better at the beginning than with the other products. Then there was a price, ease of use, and stuff like that that we also considered when switching.

The initial setup was very straightforward and simple. After 10 years, you know what the pitfalls are, so it's quite easy to manage implementations. So it's still an upgrade of an upgrade. The deployment takes a couple of days. 

You only need one person for deployment and maintenance. 

I work for integrators. I handle the initial setups of the solution myself. 

I didn't do the price calculation, however, the ROI has been good. I just do the initial budget and then I do not verify.

Users can pay a licensing fee on a monthly or yearly basis. It is becoming more and more expensive. I'd rate it a three out of five in terms of affordability.

There may be extra costs as well. You have to foresee the hardware to run it on and then store the backup. There may be costs around integrations.

I don't use it anymore for protection. It's just for testing and demonstration, and not for protection.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. 

If you have any virtualization solution, you don't have to have a VM solution for Linux. We don't need to go through an agent for a physical server. I've only done one integration one time for Office.

It is very easy to integrate. You can do it very fast.

With the latest version, you can back up directly to the cloud without having to do it on-prem, which saves money. 

The integration is very easy. It's fast and straightforward. The product is pretty straightforward to deploy.

It is stable.

Microsoft already gives backup features, and therefore they don't need to go for another backup solution. 

I don't have any notes for improvements. 

It is only for Office, not for other platforms. 

It's a new product. It's not mature. It might need more cloud capacity.

I've used the solution for one year. 

The solution is stable. I'd rate it eight out of ten. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze. It is reliable.

This is a simple backup for Office 365. It doesn't need to be scalable. 

We haven't dealt with technical support.

The solution is very easy to set up. Once you start, you just click through and enter information about storage, user name, and password. 

We are integrators and can help clients set it up. Anyone with good Microsoft knowledge can handle the setup.

The pricing is acceptable. It's not overly expensive. I'd rate the pricing nine out of ten.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

I'd recommend the solution to others.

Users should not rely on Microsoft. They need to have another local solution to handle backups outside of Microsoft.

We offer clients backup and replication services. According to our clients, Veeam is the very best. 

Veeam is new for us. However, with the help of the Veeam portal, they've relayed things like presentations or documents, which are very good for us in order to understand what Veeam offers, how to engage with clients, et cetera.

It is simple, sleek, and scalable for us. And Veeam has excellent pricing modules, which are useful.

The backup and replication capabilities are excellent. It's great for backing up Office. 

It is very simple to set up. 

If you're hands-on, it's very scalable. Its UI is very easy to understand in terms of what the job is doing, and we can schedule jobs easily.

If clients are backing up onto tape, Veeam's newest versions don't really deal with that.

There were some reliability issues in older versions. This is largely resolved. 

I've used the solution for one to two years. 

In previous versions, there were a few reliability issues. In Version 9, for example, it crashed due to a heavy load. However, by Version 11, the issue was resolved. It hasn't crashed since. 

The solution is quite scalable. It's up to us, how we develop and deploy it. How we deploy the proxy and extend the infrastructure is very straightforward. In just one click you can add servers. 

We have about 20 or 21 users at this time. 

We have salespeople and technical people we can call or email. If we have a question, usually in the first tier it can be resolved.

The initial setup is very simple. It's not complex at all. 

It takes approximately one to two hours to deploy everything. 

The pricing is quite low. It is affordable. 

They are beginning to develop licensing based on a subscription model. The pricing is reasonable compared to perpetual licensing. 

Veeam has recently launched Version 12, which looks interesting. I need time to comment on it. 

I'd recommend the solution to others. The pricing is good, and support is helpful. I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. 

It is mostly used for PST from Outlook and OneDrive. It is a good solution, and we don't have any issues with any customers.

The solution provided a good recovery point for our customers. The solution is user-friendly, and we don't have any issues. We were able to recover anything we wanted because it was not compromised.

The solution's integration and exchange with email-related things are very, very powerful. The solution is also easy to manage and work with.

The solution should provide more integration with Teams and SharePoint Online to perform other tasks.

We have been selling Veeam Backup for Office 365 for six to eight years.

The solution is very stable. I don't have any issue with it.

I rate Veeam Backup for Office 365 a ten out of ten for scalability. It is good for the purposes that we use it for.

In my organization, 100 people are using the solution, and we do not have plans to increase the usage.

Since the stability of the solution is very good, we don't have any issues to report. I don't have a lot of experience with the support team, but I think they are good.

The initial setup for Veeam Backup for Office 365 was easy and not complex at all.

We have had an ROI with this solution.

The solution is very, very, very, cheap. It is a good solution, and its price is not bad.

I am using the latest version of Veeam Backup for Office 365.

I would suggest buying this solution if it fits everything the users need because some suite products, like Project Server, are not available for everyone.

Overall, I rate Veeam Backup for Office 365 a nine out of ten.

We use it for different workloads like the VBR, Veeam Backup and Recovery. We use it to back up our virtual servers, physical servers, and our SQL database backups. We also use Veeam to back up the user mailboxes from 365.

There were only a couple of restores that were required from backdated data backup. It was good to get it to restore there fast. For the virtual machines or SQL databases, we do get the recovery done quite often, and it offers a faster recovery time.

All the features are good.

There's a feature to back copy the backup from the local repository to, say, AWS or Azure cloud storage. That's quite helpful.

It was easy to set up.

The solution can scale. 

It is stable.

There is a free version available. 

If Veeam could offer backup as a service for data backup and recovery, that would be great. We'd like something like what Druva is offering at the moment.

Veeam currently does not have immutable storage, so if they can introduce immutable storage for ransomware protection, that would be great.

We have found the free version to be less stable. 

I've been using the solution for a year and a half. 

While the licensed version has been relatively stable, we have had issues with the free version of the solution. We only had a few problems. It wasn't a lot. I'd rate the overall stability eight out of ten.

It is a scalable solution. 

It's basically for administrators. It's only useful for administrators and if there's a request for data recovery they only perform it for the user. The end user is not going to directly use this product. We have three admins on the solution currently. 

I'm using both Druva and Veam, and I'm looking at Rubrik.

Both Veeam and Druva are good products. That said, in terms of functionality, Veeam has more options.  They have multiple solutions to choose from. 

The solution offered an easy initial setup. I'd rate the ease of implementation ten out of ten. Overall, it shouldn't take more than an hour to deploy it. 

I did a session with a Windows server with the latest operating system. After installing the VBR software on that and then installing the credentials which we're going to use for the backup and adding the backup repository, then external cloud repositories, I could make the backup policies and handle testing.

So far, we haven't really needed to handle maintenance. It's running well. 

I handled the initial setup in-house. 

The pricing is reasonable. I would rate it eight out of ten. We have just a standard license. 

I'm an administrator and an end-user. 

It's a very versatile product. It is easy to install and use and it is pretty stable. I'd rate it nine out of ten. 

We use the solution for backup.

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.

The solution needs to improve its speed. 

I have been using the product for three years. 

I rate the product's stability a ten out of ten. 

My company has 10 users for Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365. I rate its scalability a ten out of ten. 

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365's deployment was easy. 

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is worth its money. 

I rate the product an eight out of ten. It helps us save time. We have seen around 20 percent of time savings. 

The Veeam Backup solution is very good for big enterprises and complex infrastructures. The main reason we are using Veeam is for end users.

Once you set it up, it works very well. You do not have to go back to reconfigure it– it is very easy to use.

I have been working with Veeam Backup for Office 365 for a couple of years.

It is a scalable solution. I would rate it a ten out of ten.
