"The price might be limiting for some clients in Latin America."
"Microsoft currently saves only two months of conversation history, and it would be better if Veeam could focus on backing up more than two months of conversation data."
"The capacity storage is a challenge everywhere in the backup industry. The general feedback people are coming back to about this is that there is no deduplication based on it."
"Veeam is quite expensive."
"One area that needs improvement is the pricing of Veeam Backup, as it can be expensive at twenty-eight dollars per user for one year."
"In the next release, it should have direct export to tape drive abilities and NDMP support."
"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."

"It's a new product. It's not mature."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The cost of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is $19 for one mailbox."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 is a subscription-based solution."
"I have a per-user license for the number of users and the mailboxes that I have."
"We are talking about a third party solution, so there is a licensing fee."
"The licensing price is quite high. It's expensive."
"There is an annual license required and a per-user fee for this solution."
"It is not the cheapest solution in the market."
"From our perspective in South Africa, our biggest challenge is the exchange rate from the South African currency to the US dollar. This makes it a bit pricey for us. However, compared to other backup solutions available, I would rate the pricing at a nine out of ten. For the servers, features, and functionality you get, it's worth the money. Of course, we'd always prefer things to be cheaper, but we also understand that you have to pay for proper functionality. So overall, it's not badly priced at all."
