Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 Reviews

Our customers like to have a backup for M365. We provide our customers with the solution. 

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 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.

 Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 needs to improve its scalability and support. 

I have been working with the product for one year. 

I rate the product's stability a five out of ten. It is not stable. We have faced outages and unknown errors. 

The tool is scalable, and I rate it a five out of ten. My company has 5000 users who use it extensively. We use 24/7 for backups. 

I rate Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365's deployment a six out of ten. The initial setup process was difficult, especially since M365 has a complex architecture.

Deployment takes a week. It involves designing, creating recent documentation, and implementing and fixing any problems. We required two people for the deployment process: a backup architect and for maintenance, we now need at least three people, as we operate on a duty-work basis.

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is expensive, and I rate it an eight out of ten. 

I rate the overall product a seven out of ten. You need to consider what you expect from the product. Are you expecting to handle everything yourself, or do you want the customer to manage their resources? That is a big issue to think about.

We are using Veeam Backup for Office 365 to backup all of our mailboxes. If something happened, we only have to restore the mailbox and look for an email.

The most valuable features of Veeam Backup for Office 365 are the ease of use and instant back and restore.

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.

If I want to offset that data off somewhere else, it is difficult, I don't have a lot of storage options.

Veeam Backup for Office 365 is a stable solution.

I have not tested the scalability of Veeam Backup for Office 365 because I have not reached the one terabyte limit I have.

The solution could improve scalability, both in terms of more storage and users. These two attributes are quite important when you talk about good scalability. 

We have four or five people using this solution.

I have not had any issues with the need to contact support.

I have not used another solution other than Veeam Backup for Office 365.

For the number of users and amount of storage you receive, it is not expensive.

I rate Veeam Backup for Office 365 a nine out of ten.

We are using Veeam Backup for our virtual machines. We attempted to use it for our DRP, however, we found it too expensive and complex, so we decided to use it just for backup.

Veeam Backup does backup and restore very well, comparable to Acronis. We have found both Veeam Backup and Acronis to be very easy to use and integrate naturally for administration.

We tried to use Veeam for our DRP. It was complicated to use and did not help us with our DRP needs due to our internet connectivity at that time.

We have been using Veeam Backup for approximately ten years for Microsoft 365 and around six years thereafter.

Over the last six years, the stability has been pretty good and consistent.

Veeam Backup is quite scalable. I would rate its scalability at eight out of ten, although we are not an expansive organization.

We usually do not request support for our products. We use public documentation if needed, but have not engaged with customer service.

Neutral

We previously used Acronis, primarily as a backup and restore solution. We switched to Veeam Backup for a more advanced solution aiming to accommodate our DRP, but found the transition problematic due to our internet connectivity.

The initial setup of Veeam Backup was easy and needed no more than a few hours. It integrates naturally for administration.

One person is sufficient for deploying Veeam Backup in our 365 infrastructure.

We do not have a defined metric for ROI, however, we are satisfied with Veeam Backup as a support service and plan to renew it.

The pricing for Veeam Backup is fair for our infrastructure when used solely for backup, yet transitioning to a cloud solution was not cost-effective for us.

I presented alternatives like Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure when considering cloud solutions, however, transitioning did not make financial sense.

I rate Veeam Backup an eight out of ten. 

It works well for our backup needs, and I would recommend it for Microsoft 365 due to its reliability.

We offer clients backup and replication services. According to our clients, Veeam is the very best. 

Veeam is new for us. However, with the help of the Veeam portal, they've relayed things like presentations or documents, which are very good for us in order to understand what Veeam offers, how to engage with clients, et cetera.

It is simple, sleek, and scalable for us. And Veeam has excellent pricing modules, which are useful.

The backup and replication capabilities are excellent. It's great for backing up Office. 

It is very simple to set up. 

If you're hands-on, it's very scalable. Its UI is very easy to understand in terms of what the job is doing, and we can schedule jobs easily.

If clients are backing up onto tape, Veeam's newest versions don't really deal with that.

There were some reliability issues in older versions. This is largely resolved. 

I've used the solution for one to two years. 

In previous versions, there were a few reliability issues. In Version 9, for example, it crashed due to a heavy load. However, by Version 11, the issue was resolved. It hasn't crashed since. 

The solution is quite scalable. It's up to us, how we develop and deploy it. How we deploy the proxy and extend the infrastructure is very straightforward. In just one click you can add servers. 

We have about 20 or 21 users at this time. 

We have salespeople and technical people we can call or email. If we have a question, usually in the first tier it can be resolved.

The initial setup is very simple. It's not complex at all. 

It takes approximately one to two hours to deploy everything. 

The pricing is quite low. It is affordable. 

They are beginning to develop licensing based on a subscription model. The pricing is reasonable compared to perpetual licensing. 

Veeam has recently launched Version 12, which looks interesting. I need time to comment on it. 

I'd recommend the solution to others. The pricing is good, and support is helpful. I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. 

The solution is used to keep files for posterity, in case of disaster recovery, in case of restoring something that goes missing.

The solution is primarily deployed on the cloud but in some cases we deploy on-prem.

The most valuable features of the solution are the scalability and the free license of up to ten VMs.

As with all things, the solution can be improved by reducing the cost.

I have been using the solution for seven years.

The stability of the solution is an industry-standard and I give the stability a ten out of ten.

The solution is extremely scalable.

We have a few thousand people using the solution.

We are partners with Veeam Backup for Office 365, so we don't have any issues with their technical support.

The initial setup is straightforward because we use specialists.

We already have a shared platform, so bringing in new customers is very easy for us. We simply apply a license and bring the customers in.

The price of the solution is good. Veeam Backup for Office 365 is a low-priced solution, so it is scalable and is priced for the market, comparable to other solutions.

I give the solution a ten out of ten.

I work for an MSP and we have over 200 working technicians. We require ten people for the deployment and maintenance of the solution.

I recommend the solution. I also use the solution personally at home for free.

In my organization, we use Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 primarily for data backup and data protection. It is also utilized for security purposes.

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 has provided significant agility from a security perspective and benefits greatly from the automated backup feature, which strengthens our operations.

The most valuable feature is the data backup functionality. It stands out as a particularly useful and relevant feature in Veeam.

While Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is a highly convenient product, there is room for improvement in its integration with Microsoft 365. This may not be entirely on Veeam, however, could be related to Microsoft policies. I would like to see features such as disaster recovery scenarios included in future updates.

We have been using Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 as part of our company infrastructure for the last five years, albeit occasionally.

In terms of stability, I would rate Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 an eight or nine. It has been reliable without any critical bugs or errors.

The solution is really scalable. Being a cloud solution, it allows us to increase or decrease the number of users covered by Veeam Backup anytime without any trouble.

Customer service and support are responsive, careful, and attentive. Though not necessarily always helpful, they do handle inquiries with care.

Positive

In my case, I primarily work with Microsoft 365. However, when customers ask for alternatives, we propose Veeam.

The initial setup was straightforward, and installation could be handled by one technician. However, planning backup strategies involves the entire IT team.

One engineer is usually involved in maintenance, but for planning, the entire IT team is required.

From a financial perspective, I don't focus much on the financial value, but the solution does offer considerable agility from a security perspective.

Compared to other solutions, Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is not the cheapest option on the market. Once purchased, no extra payments are required for additional features.

We primarily use Microsoft products, but Veeam is suggested as an alternative when customers ask for different options.

I recommend Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 due to its powerful backup solution, which covers all the modules included in the Veeam Backup solutions.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

We use Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to back up data on Office 365 services and ensure data protection from a business perspective. This includes data from Outlook, OneDrive, Teams history, and SharePoint. We provide a comprehensive backup solution for our customers and integrate these services.

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 has saved important data for our customers. For example, a customer accidentally deleted important financial messages, and our backup solution helped restore all the deleted items, thereby protecting their business.

The most critical feature of Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is its ability to back up and protect data on cloud services. This includes features such as cloud data protection and data restoration from separate storage. Veeam enables end-users to have their data secured separately from the main cloud providers like Microsoft, Amazon, or Oracle.

An improvement I'd like to see in future updates is extending the backup of Teams' conversation history. Microsoft currently saves only two months of conversation history, and it would be better if Veeam could focus on backing up more than two months of conversation data.

We have been using Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 for two years.

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is quite a stable product. I would rate its stability at ten out of ten.

The scalability of the solution is also good, though I would rate it at eight out of ten.

Veeam's customer service and support are quite responsive and helpful. I would rate them at nine out of ten.

Positive

We also work with other projects and products like Barracuda. However, our customers often choose Veeam over others like Microsoft Azure or Barracuda because it offers a turnkey solution covering both cloud and on-premises data.

The initial setup is automated by default. After the primary configuration, the system runs automated backups.

We have a dedicated technical team of around 20 engineers working specifically on backup solutions.

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 provides a significant return on investment by saving critical business data. For instance, in the manufacturing sector, losing program data for machinery could lead to expensive downtimes. Our backup solution ensures that data can be restored, avoiding substantial financial losses.

The pricing is good. While Barracuda might be cheaper, Veeam covers more solutions and offers more features, making it worth the investment. The customer also determines the support level, including premium support from the initial stage.

We evaluated other solutions like Barracuda and Microsoft Azure, but Veeam provides a more comprehensive solution for both cloud and on-premises data.

I would recommend Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to all our customers. It covers many areas and provides a unified solution for protecting both cloud and on-premises data. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.
