Backup has protected our organization-wide email data and supports fast malicious deletion recovery
Some of the best features that Druva Data Security Cloud offers are endpoint backup, ransomware protection, cloud apps, and eDiscovery. Out of endpoint backup, ransomware protection, cloud apps, and eDiscovery, I find the infinitely scalable feature to be the most valuable in my day-to-day work, as it does not have any maintenance windows, which is different in terms of data protection. When it comes to features, I appreciate that Druva Data Security Cloud boasts less complexity found in solutions that are not built for the cloud while remaining secure, scalable, and always available, without requiring a maintenance window. Druva maintains the data protection solution, not the customer, and the platform is always up to date with the latest features, which makes it very scalable, as new capacity can be added to subscription on the fly without changes to the backup setting and without needing to purchase and install new appliances or software. The impact of Druva Data Security Cloud on my organization is significant, as it ensures users' data is backed up with snapshots and is very secure on the cloud. I benefit from prompt and clear assistance from Druva support, and the ease of access into the web portal provides a view into a snapshot without having to restore it first. Specific outcomes I have seen with Druva Data Security Cloud include peace of mind knowing our users' Office 365 data is backed up and very secure, along with improved security, additional protection against accidental deletion of mailbox items, and a means for remedial action after a malicious incident that deletes or encrypts users' data.

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.

Cons

"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."
"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."
"I would rate Druva Data Security Cloud an eight on a scale from one to ten because there are better solutions available in the market in terms of security that give a better stack."
"I believe Druva Data Security Cloud could be improved as the user interface could be a little more clear, the SSO setup was a little confusing, and the ticket creation procedure could be simpler."
"They can improve their product quality for Salesforce as they don't have the capability to run that business without Technobind."
"Veeam's performance is inconsistent."
"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."
"Pricing could be more affordable."
"I would like Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to increase the speed to reduce the backup time."
"While I don't have a use case in mind, it would be great if they could integrate more automation capabilities into the solution."
"Pricing is an area for improvement, and I would rate it at five out of ten."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"There is a license required for this solution and we pay annually."
"The cost of Veeam Backup is $28 per user for one year."
"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."
"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 are talking about a third party solution, so there is a licensing fee."
"There is an annual license required and a per-user fee for this solution."
"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."
"Its cost is pretty high. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing."
