Incremental backup simplifies content recovery with beneficial features for email and file services
Almost all the features are valuable for Microsoft 365, specifically signatures and backup for email services and files for Microsoft. It is a full module suitable for any organization. The incremental backup feature is beneficial as it allows me to restore any imaging and filing with just a few clicks, simplifying content recovery after errors occur.

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 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 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."
"The most valuable feature of CodeTwo Backup for Office 365 is its restore functionality."
"Almost all the features of CodeTwo are valuable for Microsoft 365."
"It works well for our backup needs, and I would recommend it for Microsoft 365 due to its reliability."
"Overall, it's a very good product."
"At the moment I think we have all we need for backing up our Office 365 emails reliably, we have a solid solution with this product so I don't see any reason it would have to change."
"It is a really good and intuitive solution; Veeam has developed a fantastic product, and I've never seen anything that I don't like about Veeam."
"For those considering implementing the solution, I would say to just go for it."
"This covers the areas of backing up Office 365 that Microsoft does not include in its standard routine."
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is the WAN accelerator. This feature allows for large amounts of data from one location to another. If the bandwidth in the environment is slow it makes the transfer slow but the WAN accelerator feature helps speed the transfer."
"The most valuable feature is the data backup functionality."
 

Cons

"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."
"There is room to improve in managing email signatures."
"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."
"Its price is a little bit high, but it is a fantastic solution."
"The solution announced many features two years ago, and they still have not happened, so I would hope that the next release has these ready to go."
"The installation could always be a little bit easier. You do need to be a bit technical."
"When using Veeam Backup for Office 365 when there is a server that's running, I have to have a hard drive installed on it. For example, if I want to use another storage solution, I can't incorporate it very well. If I want to use SMB or other protocols I cannot use them with the Veeam Backup for Office 365. They have the support in the other Veeam Backup and Restore solutions, but it doesn't support it in this solution. Hopefully, in the future, they figured it out."
"They need more documentation, awareness, and assistance."
"In the next release, it should have direct export to tape drive abilities and NDMP support."
"The pricing model is unnecessarily confusing and could be simplified."
"The integration and the coverage of all the features related to the protection of Teams could be improved."
 

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."
"It is strictly subscribed on a per-user basis."
"Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is expensive, and I rate it an eight out of ten."
"The cost of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is $19 for one mailbox."
"The solution is very, very, very, cheap."
"The cost is a bit on the high side."
"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."
"For the number of users and amount of storage you receive, it is not expensive."
"The solution is not expensive."
