Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user-friendly interface of CloudAlly significantly enhances data protection."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup an eight out of ten, with ten being easy."
"The most valuable features of Veeam Backup for Office 365 are the ease of use and instant back and restore."
"It is a stable solution."
"The product is very stable and performs exceptionally well."
"It works well for our backup needs, and I would recommend it for Microsoft 365 due to its reliability."
"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."
"The most valuable features of Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 are its intuitive interface, ease of use, and unlimited capacity for backup and restore."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its integration with M365. Its GUI is intuitive and not bad. The granular recovery options for VMs have been useful, though not as crucial as Office 365 integration, which is why we use it. Granular recovery depends on the specific problems our customers face."
 

Cons

"CloudAlly can improve in the areas of reporting, especially regarding backup statistics and backup failures presented in pie graphs and charts."
"We tried to use Veeam for our DRP. It was complicated to use and did not help us with our DRP needs due to our internet connectivity at that time."
"I would like Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to increase the speed to reduce the backup time."
"It's a new product. It's not mature."
"We use a yearly subscription. However, I believe the price could be lower."
"While there really is nothing wrong with the product some small improvements in the interface could make it even easier to use."
"Pricing could be more affordable."
"Currently, I'm working for Huawei and they dropped the support for Huawei, so that's an issue for us."
"It would be a great improvement to be able to recover cover a VM straight to on-prem."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is inexpensive. We have a license to use the solution."
"Its price is a little bit high, but it is a fantastic solution. It is more expensive than NetApp."
"Its cost is pretty high. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing."
"We decided on Altaro because, from the point of view of the total cost, Altaro looks cheaper than Veeam. Veeam has a lot of costs that are not clear when you start it, which makes it less flexible than Altaro, but only after half a year, you can be really sure that you made a good decision."
"I think it's a fair price. It's around $36 per user, so I think it's a fair price for our customers."
"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."
"There is an annual license required and a per-user fee for this solution."
"It is not the cheapest solution in the market."
