CONRAD FORREST - PeerSpot reviewer
President at MTS Consulting Group, Inc.
The solution provides the ability to backup all types of cloud drives, is inexpensive, and has decent support
MSP360 Backup provides the backup functionality, but we need to provide the storage component. We can use Azure, AWS, or another provider, but we need to choose the storage provider and create a bucket to store our data. The vendor is making changes to improve the functionality of the service and the separation of storage, but I would like to see more integration and a knowledge base of the tool. Currently trying to understand why the storage is separated and how to implement the storage properly is a challenge. Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service. Unlike other solutions such as Kohl which includes everything at one price. MSP360 Backup can be improved by adding inclusive pricing.

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

"One massive advantage of this solution, as compared to more enterprise products, is that no firewall changes are needed on the client's premises. For the product to back up from the client's premise to the cloud, it just needs port 8 and port 443, which are anyway always open. This was one of the things that made us decide to go with the product. It is very difficult to justify a firewall change for a small client who doesn't even know what a firewall is and how to maintain a firewall, or doesn't have anybody maintaining their firewall. You then have to maintain the firewall. MSP360 Backup takes away firewall change requirements, VPNs, or channels that are needed for the backup."
"The initial setup is very easy. It's not overly complex."
"The solution is easy to access and handles things efficiently."
"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."
"The UI is pretty good. It's very simple. That is one thing that we like about this. It's very user-friendly."
"Client-side encryption minimizes worries about data being captured on the back-end."
"MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface."
"Technical support is very good."
"The most valuable features of Veeam Backup for Office 365 are the ease of use and instant back and restore."
"The scalability is good."
"The solution provides good backup services for Microsoft 365."
"The feature that I like the most is the system backup recovery from OneDrive."
"The scalability of Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 is very good."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 has good security, and I also like the process they use for backups."
"Veeam Backup gives you the option to backup your data from the cloud to on-premises."
"The pricing is reasonable."
 

Cons

"The initial setup is a little complex as it has to be done in the office and requires someone to come in and install the solution on your server, then configure the scheduling, backup pushing, and so on."
"As for what can be improved, some reports could be simplified so that you know how much backup you have done and what your backup details are. That report is available but it is very tough to get. I would like to know "today I have just uploaded 35 MB, tomorrow I have loaded 10 MB so my trend of backup is increasing.""
"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."
"The main improvement is that it should have GDPR compliance. That's the problematic point. They say they are GDPR compliant, but they are not."
"We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines."
"The solution's pricing is very high."
"The interface feels like it is targeted for end users who typically are looking for an all-in-one integrated push button solution. It would be better if the interface had a beginner mode and an expert mode."
"The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated."
"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."
"This is a cloud solution, and the speed can be slow sometimes."
"If one administrator wants to delete something in 365, another admin must approve it."
"While Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is a highly convenient product, there is room for improvement in its integration with Microsoft 365."
"It needs to be able to integrate with other emailing systems, like Linux."
"The pricing model is unnecessarily confusing and could be simplified."
"The solution should provide more integration with Teams and SharePoint Online to perform other tasks."
"We use a yearly subscription. However, I believe the price could be lower."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"MSP360 is vastly cheaper than its competitors and has almost all the same features."
"I rate the price of MSP360 Backup a seven out of ten."
"It provides a good cost savings compared to our previous cloud backup."
"Pricing is reasonable although can be quite a large upfront cost."
"The solution is expensive."
"The cost is pretty inexpensive. Around four to five dollars per device, per workstation on each server."
"It includes a standard licensing fee. Once a year, there is a rebranding fee. The licensing costs are available on the internet for MSP360 Backup. There is a discount structure where if you have over 50 devices, you get a 50% discount. So, my cost is $2 a license per month."
"We have a very good return on investment."
"We are talking about a third party solution, so there is a licensing fee."
"For the number of users and amount of storage you receive, it is not expensive."
"There is an annual license required and a per-user fee for this solution."
"The cost of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is $19 for one mailbox."
"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."
"I have a per-user license for the number of users and the mailboxes that I have."
"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."
"I'm not sure about the price, but I think it could be lower."
