A reliable backup solution that needs to incorporate a flexible pricing model
We use Boxafe for backup.  I like the tool's reliability. Its price is also cheap, and it gets delivered in two days.  Boxafe's pricing policy should be more flexible.  I have been working with the product for seven years.  The product is stable.  I rate Boxafe's scalability an eight out of…

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.

Quotes from Members

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

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."
"The most critical feature of Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is its ability to back up and protect data on cloud services."
"I find Veeam's customer service and support to be excellent, rating them ten out of ten."
"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 support offered by both Veeam and our third party supplier is excellent."
"The customer service and support team are good."
"I would recommend this solution to others who are interested in implementation, as it is a good solution with good email capacity and is easy to use."
"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."
"It is very easy to integrate. You can do it very fast."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in the pricing. This is the issue, the reason why we started using Synology."
"Boxafe's pricing policy should be more flexible."
"If you use a device to back up with compression and duplication, the solution doesn't work."
"Support is quite bad. They advise too late. When we call for support, it really does take far too long for a response."
"The solution needs to improve its speed."
"It needs to be able to integrate with other emailing systems, like Linux."
"This solution would be improved if our customers could simplify their graphic user interface and for it to be more user-friendly."
"While there really is nothing wrong with the product some small improvements in the interface could make it even easier to use."
"They should improve the backup and restoration time."
"In future updates of Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365, I would like to see mail archiving functionality."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's price is cheap. I rate it five out of ten."
"The licensing price is quite high. It's expensive."
"I'm not sure about the price, but I think it could be lower."
"The solution is not expensive."
"It is strictly subscribed on a per-user basis."
"I think it's a fair price. It's around $36 per user, so I think it's a fair price for our customers."
"There is an annual license required and a per-user fee for this solution."
"The cost is a bit on the high side."
"It is not the cheapest solution in the market."
