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

"The reliable backup and restoring of the Salesforce data is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature for our customers is the restore functionality."
"Backup and replication are the most valuable features."
"One of the valuable features is the ability to restore a specific email. For example, if a user has deleted an email and they would like that particular email back we are able to restore it."
"It's user-friendly, especially for taking incremental backups."
"The way it backs up personal files is great."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"The solution is easy to use. It's very simple and clients find it very easy to find all objects and things they need with the Veeam Explorer."
"I would recommend this solution to others who are interested in implementation, as it is a good solution with good email capacity and is easy to use."
"Veaam technical support, from my perspective, is one of the best technical support I've ever engaged with."
 

Cons

"The anonymization feature can be improved."
"There is need to do the same for the other SaaS applications."
"It would be a great improvement to be able to recover cover a VM straight to on-prem."
"The solution should have backup integration features, not just concerning mail but also when it comes to such solutions as SharePoint."
"The customer service and support response time can be improved."
"Pricing is an area for improvement, and I would rate it at five out of ten."

"The pricing model is unnecessarily confusing and could be simplified."
"When you are working in the Cloud security is very important."
"Support is quite bad. They advise too late. When we call for support, it really does take far too long for a response."
