Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We are talking about a third party solution, so there is a licensing fee."
"The solution is very, very, very, cheap."
"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 pricing model makes this solution more expensive than it needs to be."
"The cost of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is $19 for one mailbox."
"The cost is a bit on the high side."
"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."
