Featured Reviews

Nikola Uvalic - PeerSpot reviewer
Streamlines our processes and makes everything more efficient and less prone to errors
While CodeTwo Backup for Office 365 is generally great, there is some room for improvement in integrating with Office 365's restore options. Additionally, there is room to improve in managing email signatures. If it could make handling email signatures simpler or offer more features, that would be a plus. An additional feature that could be valuable is a search functionality within Office 365 tenants for specific mailboxes or logs related to events like receiving certain emails or bounce occurrences.
Chong Khing  Lee - PeerSpot reviewer
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 most valuable feature of CodeTwo Backup for Office 365 is its restore functionality."
"The tool's porting of targeted sources in CSV was a nice feature. The integration and connection between the tenants were smooth. We could access a template CSV as well."
"Almost all the features of CodeTwo are valuable for Microsoft 365."
"The solution offers ease of configuration. With a wizard, you run through the setup, and everything is configured correctly. Additionally, creating a job is very easy, and overall, the ease of access is excellent. Also, it allows you to use the backups to migrate to another Office 365 environment."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"Veeam Backup gives you the option to backup your data from the cloud to on-premises."
"Veeam Backup does backup and restore very well."
"This covers the areas of backing up Office 365 that Microsoft does not include in its standard routine."
"It is very simple to set up."
"I find Veeam's customer service and support to be excellent, rating them ten out of ten."
"Veeam is affordable and end-to-end configuration is straightforward, whether you're going from source to destination or vice versa. Retrieval is also easy."
"The support offered by both Veeam and our third party supplier is excellent."
 

Cons

"I attempted to modify the XML files in the product's configuration to enhance the speed and efficiency of the process. While the KBs and documentation were well-written, technical aspects related to speed adjustment parameters were unclear."
"There is room to improve in managing email signatures."
"The customer service and support could be improved. When communicating via email, they sometimes take until late the same day to respond."
"There are two major improvements. First, the UI seems outdated. Second, the tool should support cloud backups. I suggest using Windows Server 2016 or 2019."
"We would like to have a single management console for all of our backups."
"They need more documentation, awareness, and assistance."
"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."
"I would like Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to increase the speed to reduce the backup time."
"If one administrator wants to delete something in 365, another admin must approve it."
"We have found that there is a limitation in this solution where it only takes the backup of users who are using Office 365 Enterprise email IDs. We have many users in management and approximately 50 other users who are using Office 365 of which Veeam is able to capture the backup. However, for the other users who are on the local email server at that time, the solution is not able to capture the backup."
"They can provide a dashboard for sizing. This feature might get included in the next release."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by adding more features with Microsoft teams. We have many files that we are working on with Microsoft teams and there should be more integration and features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's pricing was reasonable. I don't remember the amount per mailbox, but the cost seemed fair, considering we had around 300 mailboxes to migrate and needed to do it in a rush over a weekend. We didn't have many choices for people to operate the migration."
"We looked at a few cloud options. When we did the comparison, we found it to be a cost-effective solution, and it included everything."
"Veaam Backup is licensed per mailbox, which customers like because it's per user and so they don't have to pay for shared mailboxes."
"I think it's a fair price. It's around $36 per user, so I think it's a fair price for our customers."
"Its price is a little bit high, but it is a fantastic solution. It is more expensive than NetApp."
"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 solution is not expensive."
"It is an expensive product, and there is an additional cost involved in purchasing hardware. I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
"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."
