Efficient data management but struggles with new hardware limitations
We use it for many different purposes, including SQL, files, and other applications. We are considering a solution to replace it due to limitations with new hardware that it does not support The data application is working well, and it does manage to match data when using the data option. There…

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The data application is working well, and it does manage to match data when using the data option."
"In terms of data recovery, both the performance and reliability have been excellent."
"This is an easy-to-install easy-to-use solution for backing up Office 365 email."
"I appreciate that Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 allows me to back up on both local storage and cloud storage, providing two options for data restoration."
"It works well for our backup needs, and I would recommend it for Microsoft 365 due to its reliability."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup an eight out of ten, with ten being easy."
"We have backups for Microsoft 365 because it is in the account of the complete tenant compromise. If we lose access to a tenant or all of the client's data gets Microsoft 365, and they lose access to all of their emails, OneDrive, and Teams data, then at least we have an off-site copy that is not linked to their Microsoft side of things."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the scalability and the free license of up to ten VMs."
"It is easy to use and easy to recover files."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with our Teams environment."
 

Cons

"They should include the capability to back up on-premises environments."
"There are limitations with new hardware where it does not support failover and does not support the three-star bank group."
"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."
"It's a new product. It's not mature."
"I'm very satisfied with Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 and would continue using it if it were up to me. However, my management is considering alternative solutions due to issues with our storage solutions."
"The solution could offer better reporting."
"Technical support could be improved."
"While I don't have a use case in mind, it would be great if they could integrate more automation capabilities into the solution."
"If one administrator wants to delete something in 365, another admin must approve it."
"They need to enable the encryption of backups so that nobody can gain access unless they have encryption details."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The SaaS platform offers many benefits; the licensing structure is suitable for monitoring and controlling users' storage space."
"It is an expensive product, and there is an additional cost involved in purchasing hardware. I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
"Its price is a little bit high, but it is a fantastic solution. It is more expensive than NetApp."
"I think it's a fair price. It's around $36 per user, so I think it's a fair price for our customers."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 is a subscription-based solution."
"It is not the cheapest solution in the market."
"The cost is a bit on the high side."
"The licensing price is quite high. It's expensive."
"It is strictly subscribed on a per-user basis."
