Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 Reviews

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.

When we work with physical infrastructure, we use a Veeam agent to protect that workload, but we use Veeam for Office 365 to protect workloads in 365. 

The most valuable feature is the built-in integration with Office 365, which helps us protect email accounts and servers. We use it on virtual servers on the cloud with Azure, or we can use an agent on physical servers.

A while back, I had some trouble using the agent. It might be a problem with older versions. Sometimes, I also have issues installing or making backups from the console to that type of operating system.

I started using Veeam for 365 around a year ago.

I rate Veeam eight out of 10 for stability.

I rate Veeam Backup for 365 nine out of 10 for scalability.

I rate Veeam support seven out of 10. 

Neutral

Setting up Veeam is easy and intuitive. One or two people can deploy it depending on the number of devices or the workload. 

I rate Veeam eight out of 10 for affordability. 

I rate Veeam Backup for Office 365 eight out of 10 overall. Veeam works and is so straightforward. I can recommend it.

We are using Veeam for our customers. It's used for backups and disaster recovery.

It works well. It's very good for backups.

The solution is stable and reliable. 

It's easy to deploy.

At this moment, I don't have any downsides to note. 

Veeam is quite expensive. Often, clients are looking for a less expensive option. 

We've been dealing with the solution for three or four years. 

The solution is stable. It's reliable, and the performance is good. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. I'd rate it five out of five in terms of stability. 

I don't have too much information in regard to scaling. 

We've dealt with support in the past. They are helpful and responsive. 

Positive

I did not participate in the initial setup of the product. We have a separate team that handles deployment. That said, my understanding is that it is a simple setup.

Five to six people tend to handle the deployment process. We might have as many as ten people in our organization that can handle the requisite tasks. 

One of our teams handles the deployment process. 

We haven't calculated ROI for our clients.

They have newer Pulse licensing that is better. However, our clients do look at the pricing and feel it is too high. The licenses are paid every three years. 

I have compared Veeam to other products, and I found it to be more stable and reliable. 

We are service providers and a Veeam partner. 

We're using the latest version of the solution.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

We use the solution primarily to protect data. 

We were not aware of the fact that Microsoft was not engaged, could not be, or we were not aware of the fact that it was not possible to engage the responsibility of Microsoft in case we lose or face corrupt data. We thought Microsoft was in charge of all the security and the workload protection. Since we have learned we are not fully protected, and after hearing of some bad experiences from friends, we started using this solution to protect our data and to be sure that no matter what happens, we can get our data from Office 365, and especially, Teams.

In the past, when someone was leaving the company, it was really difficult to keep his data without decommissioning the license allotted to this employee. Today, we can reuse the license. We are assured that the data is already safe.

With Veeam Backup for Office 365, it is possible to save an employee's mailbox and decommission the license to reuse it for another person without losing the data.

The most valuable feature is flexibility. It offers good retention of policy features. We have a lot of flexibility in terms of scheduling or setting our data retention policy. We can retain our data at our convenience, which is really useful.

It is very easy to set up the solution. 

The solution is very scalable.

The solution is stable.

It has a good help center.

The integration and the coverage of all the features related to the protection of Teams could be improved. With this solution, not all the elements of Teams are protected. You have all the data, however, since Teams interacts with many other pieces of software on the Office package, it's sometimes a bit complicated to recover all the functions simultaneously. For sure, you have the data, yet not all the functions. When you recover Teams, you have to, let's say, set some other settings manually. It would be really interesting to have all the processes automated since it's so time-consuming to do it manually.

I've used the solution for just under two years. I've used it for about 19 months so far. 

The solution is stable and reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. 

It is a scalable solution. 

The process of adding more users to extend your license is really easy. They're really reactive.

We have about 1,000 people on the solution right now.

Technical support is really helpful and responsive. The only downside is sometimes it takes a bit of time when we need keys changed. 

Neutral

I have not previously used a different solution. 

The product is very straightforward and simple to set up. You do not even need to be an expert to set it up. While the design is another story, the installation is really easy.

How long it takes to deploy depends on your existing architecture. It depends on how you want to integrate the product. If you are in a company with, let's say, 100 users, it could take you one hour to put it in place, without the time consumed by the design, as the most important part of the deployment is the design. It is the phase that takes a lot of time. That said, setting it up is very easy as soon as everything has been designed.

We did not need the help of any third party. 

The local teams did it. However, we have leveraged the knowledge base part of Veeam, called the help center. They have a lot of information there, which was really useful for us.

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. It's agile and we are protected well. 

We pay for licensing every year. The license is purchased for a specific number of users. You can have a license for one year or many years - up to five years, for example. 

We are a partner and customer.

We are not using the latest version of the solution. We haven't yet done the latest update. 

I'd recommend the solution to other users and organizations. 

This solution brought us a lot of flexibility on how we can manage and care about our data, as far as Office 365 is concerned.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

The use case is to back up Office 365 data. The users want their data in Office 365 to be backed up because even Microsoft has some data protection limitations. There are cases where the data could be lost, and Microsoft will not take responsibility. It is the responsibility of the users to set up a proper backup. For example, if you have a malicious user deleting certain data, you can restore it yourself. That's a use case for Veeam Backup for Office 365.

It helps to ensure that you can always have your data restored. For example, if someone hacked your account and deleted all your data, you always have a way to restore it. 

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.

Functionality-wise, it is better than most of its competitors. 

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 is also not cheap.

I have been working with this solution for a few months.

It is pretty good.

It is pretty flexible and scalable. You can set up servers and multiple proxies depending on your usage. It can handle a big volume of data.

In our company, we have less than 50 people. It is used by IT admins. Typically, you would need one or two people to do some routine tasks. For example, if a user deleted an email and wants to restore it, the user will call the IT admin to restore the email. 

I just set up two instances. It was not that hard. We have two or three people for deployment and maintenance.

Its cost is pretty high. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing.

If you are a small company and you do not have too many resources, I would advise trying some backup service and not setting up your own backup infrastructure. You can use a SaaS service. There are some companies that provide Veeam backup as a service. They set it up for you and charge you a usage-based fee, which could be a cheaper option.

I would rate it an eight out of ten.

The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is its performance. Additionally, the user interface and documentation are easy to use and navigate.

We use it in our office as well as for our customers who have Office 365.

I use it in a multi-tenant way.

It does what it does. I want an additional copy of my data in the Office cloud and it works. I can restore the data.

The interface is quite okay and the procedures are clear.

There are many applications in Office 365 and new applications are being added. They keep up with all of the data.

Security is the most important feature. When you are working in the Cloud security is very important.

They may have made changes recently, and may already have the two-factor integration, and following the security upgrades from Office themselves.
