Pros

"I like the tool's reliability. Its price is also cheap, and it gets delivered in two days."
"The most valuable feature was the repository."
"Veeam makes modular solutions, so you can install Veeam Backup for Office 365 and Veeam Backup and Replication in one single server. You can do an all in one installation, and roll it out."
"It was easy to set up."
"The most valuable aspect of Veeam is its stability."
"The solution provides good backup services for Microsoft 365."
"It’s amazing how the solution helps restore old data."
"The setup is very simple. It takes 15 minutes."
"Backup and replication are the most valuable features."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup an eight out of ten, with ten being easy."
 

Cons

"Boxafe's pricing policy should be more flexible."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing. This is the issue, the reason why we started using Synology."
"It needs to be able to integrate with other emailing systems, like Linux."
"The license pricing can be reduced."
"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."
"The customer service and support response time can be improved."
"Pricing is an area for improvement, and I would rate it at five out of ten."
"The solution needs to improve its speed."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by reducing the time it takes for backups. I have mentioned this to Veeam and hopefully, in the next version, it will be a faster backup."
"One major drawback is that Veeam doesn't support migrating data once it's stored in object storage like S3."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's price is cheap. I rate it five out of ten."
"We have 2000 users and pay about $10,000. It may be a little bit more per year. We have an education institute and may have fewer expenses."
"For the number of users and amount of storage you receive, it is not expensive."
"This is not a stand-alone product and requires a standard Veeam license for your organization in addition to the cost of the solution."
"The price of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is inexpensive. We have a license to use the solution."
"The cost is a bit on the high side."
"There is a license required for this solution and we pay annually."
"There is an annual license required and a per-user fee for this solution."
"I think it's a fair price. It's around $36 per user, so I think it's a fair price for our customers."
