Nikola Uvalic - PeerSpot reviewer
Streamlines our processes and makes everything more efficient and less prone to errors
While CodeTwo Backup for Office 365 is generally great, there is some room for improvement in integrating with Office 365's restore options. Additionally, there is room to improve in managing email signatures. If it could make handling email signatures simpler or offer more features, that would be a plus. An additional feature that could be valuable is a search functionality within Office 365 tenants for specific mailboxes or logs related to events like receiving certain emails or bounce occurrences.

Reliable rollback features for smooth IT operations and an easy setup
We are using Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to take backups of shop floor PCs. I use it for clients locally, particularly for critical machines. It is also used globally for server-side backups and includes scheduling features like taking ten backups every Sunday when the factory is closed. This…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature of CodeTwo Backup for Office 365 is its restore functionality."
"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."
"Almost all the features of CodeTwo are valuable for Microsoft 365."
"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 support offered by both Veeam and our third party supplier is excellent."
"The setup is very simple. It takes 15 minutes."
"It is very simple to set up."
"Veeam is affordable and end-to-end configuration is straightforward, whether you're going from source to destination or vice versa. Retrieval is also easy."
"I believe the solution is very scalable. We can continuously add mailboxes and sites."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"It's user-friendly, especially for taking incremental backups."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup an eight out of ten, with ten being easy."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"The customer service and support could be improved. When communicating via email, they sometimes take until late the same day to respond."
"The pricing model is unnecessarily confusing and could be simplified."
"Pricing could be more affordable."
"While there really is nothing wrong with the product some small improvements in the interface could make it even easier to use."
"The solution could offer better reporting."
"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."
"When you add a new site for backup, it gives you a notice that there is a new site, but the way you select that and configure that could be slightly better. It works, but it is not always very clear. For example, for the URL, you need to hover over the title or the name of the site. You should see it immediately on the screen. It should have a better user interface for selecting what you want to back up so that you get a more clear overview of the sites that are there and the ones that you want to combine in a backup. Its user interface should be more user-friendly. It has a lot of scrolling and doesn't give you a complete overview when needed. That's the main thing why it is not very user-friendly. It should have a better user interface."
"If clients are backing up onto tape, Veeam's newest versions don't really deal with that."
"The solution is costly."
 

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."
"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."
"I'm not sure about the price, but I think it could be lower."
"This is not a stand-alone product and requires a standard Veeam license for your organization in addition to the cost of the solution."
"The licensing price is quite high. It's expensive."
"The cost is a bit on the high side."
"The price of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is inexpensive. We have a license to use the solution."
"I think it's a fair price. It's around $36 per user, so I think it's a fair price for our customers."
"The solution is not expensive."
