"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is its performance. Additionally, the user interface and documentation are easy to use and navigate."

Cons

"CloudAlly can improve in the areas of reporting, especially regarding backup statistics and backup failures presented in pie graphs and charts."
"Its price could be improved."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by reducing the time it takes for backups. I have mentioned this to Veeam and hopefully, in the next version, it will be a faster backup."
"One major drawback is that Veeam doesn't support migrating data once it's stored in object storage like S3."
"While there really is nothing wrong with the product some small improvements in the interface could make it even easier to use."
"One area that needs improvement is the pricing of Veeam Backup, as it can be expensive at $28 per user for one year."
"Veeam is quite expensive."
"If you use a device to back up with compression and duplication, the solution doesn't work."
"They should improve the backup and restoration time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution is not expensive."
"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."
"There is an annual license required and a per-user fee for this solution."
"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."
"The solution is very, very, very, cheap."
"The cost of Veeam Backup is $28 per user for one year."
"Veaam Backup is licensed per mailbox, which customers like because it's per user and so they don't have to pay for shared mailboxes."
"The pricing is middle-of-the-road compared with competing products."
