CONRAD FORREST - PeerSpot reviewer
The solution provides the ability to backup all types of cloud drives, is inexpensive, and has decent support
MSP360 Backup provides the backup functionality, but we need to provide the storage component. We can use Azure, AWS, or another provider, but we need to choose the storage provider and create a bucket to store our data. The vendor is making changes to improve the functionality of the service and the separation of storage, but I would like to see more integration and a knowledge base of the tool. Currently trying to understand why the storage is separated and how to implement the storage properly is a challenge. Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service. Unlike other solutions such as Kohl which includes everything at one price. MSP360 Backup can be improved by adding inclusive pricing.
Chong Khing  Lee - PeerSpot reviewer
Backup and recovery options integrate smoothly while affordability remains a challenge
My relationship with Veeam is that I am a reseller and system integrator. The support for both cloud-based and on-premises infrastructure from Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 impacts my data protection strategy because that's the reason we are using Veeam. Veeam is a platform that supports both on-prem and cloud. It's a single pane of glass that we can support both, which is one of the good reasons we are using Veeam. The key benefits my organization has experienced with Veeam's integration of SharePoint, OneDrive, Exchange, and Teams within its data protection framework are that single licensing is one of the things customers prefer to use because it's very easy for them to manage. I would rate Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 overall an eight on a scale from 1 to 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"General ease of use and performance of the Windows version is the most valuable feature."
"I was mainly concerned with cloud backups, OneDrive backups, consumer OneDrive, business OneDrive, Google backups, and SharePoint backups. The solution did a good job of the backup."
"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."
"MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface."
"The solution is simple to use and easy to configure."
"One massive advantage of this solution, as compared to more enterprise products, is that no firewall changes are needed on the client's premises. For the product to back up from the client's premise to the cloud, it just needs port 8 and port 443, which are anyway always open. This was one of the things that made us decide to go with the product. It is very difficult to justify a firewall change for a small client who doesn't even know what a firewall is and how to maintain a firewall, or doesn't have anybody maintaining their firewall. You then have to maintain the firewall. MSP360 Backup takes away firewall change requirements, VPNs, or channels that are needed for the backup."
"Client-side encryption minimizes worries about data being captured on the back-end."
"The solution is easy to access and handles things efficiently."
"The solution provides good backup services for Microsoft 365."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup an eight out of ten, with ten being easy."
"The tool is easy to use and straightforward regarding restoration and creating backups. It's user-friendly, providing results and sending alerts when something goes wrong."
"The product is easy-to-use."
"For data security, we rely on Veeam Backup for Teams and it is quite effective."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its integration with M365. Its GUI is intuitive and not bad. The granular recovery options for VMs have been useful, though not as crucial as Office 365 integration, which is why we use it. Granular recovery depends on the specific problems our customers face."
"The feature that I like the most is the system backup recovery from OneDrive."
"Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is reliable and easy to use."
 

Cons

"Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service."
"We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines."
"They can add some production backup capabilities and the ability to do single instance back up. At the moment, it doesn't do deduplication on the standard backup. So, the issue is backing up PSG files for customers who have limited bandwidth. The other issue is that I don't like the implementation of the SQL backup. We do use SQL ourselves using a PowerShell script with the VDA tools as a module. That's how we back up. The rotation feature would be nice to have, but I know that they've got it on their dashboard or on their list to look at. They can also do a few tweaks to the dashboard. I would like the reporting capabilities on the portal to be much more granular. Normally, I export it to a text file, and then I run it through a pivot table in order to look at it from a cost-recovery point of view and to see when the backup last ran and if it was successful when it ran two or three days ago. Such a feature would work really well for my market. They can also add a cost-effective backup for Android and Apple cellphones. I've had one or two customers who were looking for this feature. I haven't found this functionality at the moment. I've been looking for a product that does that."
"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."
"The restore time could improve. When we had an issue the restore time was lengthy."
"The solution's pricing is very high."
"There are some things that we don't like about it. That is why I was exploring alternatives in a hyper-scale environment. That is why I was checking IT Central Station."
"The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated."
"We would like to have a single management console for all of our backups."
"The license pricing can be reduced."
"If clients are backing up onto tape, Veeam's newest versions don't really deal with that."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by adding more features with Microsoft teams. We have many files that we are working on with Microsoft teams and there should be more integration and features."
"I would like Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to increase the speed to reduce the backup time."
"It would be a great improvement to be able to recover cover a VM straight to on-prem."
"The product cannot back up Active Directory objects while its competitors can. Self-service power enables us to deal with service providers. We provide services for our clients, so having a multi-tenant service portal would be good."
"I'm very satisfied with Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 and would continue using it if it were up to me. However, my management is considering alternative solutions due to issues with our storage solutions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is reasonable although can be quite a large upfront cost."
"The cost is pretty inexpensive. Around four to five dollars per device, per workstation on each server."
"MSP360 is vastly cheaper than its competitors and has almost all the same features."
"We have a very good return on investment."
"It includes a standard licensing fee. Once a year, there is a rebranding fee. The licensing costs are available on the internet for MSP360 Backup. There is a discount structure where if you have over 50 devices, you get a 50% discount. So, my cost is $2 a license per month."
"Its pricing needs improvement."
"I rate the price of MSP360 Backup a seven out of ten."
"It provides a good cost savings compared to our previous cloud backup."
"The solution is very, very, very, cheap."
"The cost of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is $19 for one mailbox."
"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."
"I'm not sure about the price, but I think it could be lower."
"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 licensing price is quite high. It's expensive."
"This is not a stand-alone product and requires a standard Veeam license for your organization in addition to the cost of the solution."
