Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 Reviews

We primarily install the solution for our clients. 

The solution is used for backup purposes, specifically for Office 365. By default, depending on how it is configured, it will back up every eight to ten days. Beyond that, if you need specific mail recovery or complete mail recovery, you can do that as well. 

Overall, it's a very good product.

The configuration is easy.

The installation process is very easy.

I have found the solution to be very stable. 

They offer a very good management console. With the dashboard, you can understand exactly what is going on in your infrastructure in relation to backup and recovery aspects. 

While I don't have a use case in mind, it would be great if they could integrate more automation capabilities into the solution. 

Integration with other products could be improved. 

The solution is stable. There were previous issues, however, now the issues are sorted out. Now we can take the file backups, and NAS backups specifically. While streamlining or fine-tuning is still required, they're working on that. 

Its performance is good. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

We have installed the solution for three or four customers.

I've dealt with Veeam support in the past, not necessarily for this product. However, it's my understanding that the support would be the same for Veeam across all products and I don't have any complaints with their level of responsiveness or helpfulness. That said, they could always improve their level of service. 

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. You have to install the console and everything is there. It is just a console installation. There are only three or four clicks and you are done. However, everything goes on the cloud. That is how we have configured. 

It is not a huge task to configure O365. If you know how to do that particular thing, it's hardly a half-day's worth of work. In one instance, we had three, One storage and NetApp storage devices and 50 mailboxes, and two or three servers. That was the infrastructure. The deployment for that took half a day.

I can handle the deployment and maintenance aspects of the solution on my own. You only need one person.

As integrators, we help our clients install the solution.

The solution is subscription only. That said, you have to procure the licenses separately. So O365 licenses are separate and Veeam licenses are separate. 

If someone has O365 or any other mail solutions, they should definitely go for Veeam.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. I've been pretty happy with its capabilities. I'd recommend the solution to other users and organizations.

I use the solution for software production and virtual machine backups.

One of the main features of the solution is it is easy to use.

I have been using the solution for approximately one year.

The solution is very stable. However, in our last deployment, we have had some conductivity issues that we have yet to be resolved. In my country, we have a decent download speed but the upload is not that fast which is causing some issues.

We plan to increase usage in the future.

I am satisfied with the technical support of the solution.

The documentation for the installation is good. However, if you are new to the environment the installation could be difficult. The first time we did it it took approximately four days.

We did the implementation ourselves.

There is a license required for this solution and we pay annually.

I would recommend this solution to others.

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

As a customer, you don't have the required protection of your data when you use 365. There are two possibilities; Veeam Backup and Veritas SaaS Backup. The difference between the two is that Veeam Backup gives you the option to backup your data from the cloud to on-premises.

This solution could provide the option to choose a different storage areas. When you backup data, you have different types of backup and you have the possibility to pay for different levels of target storage. For example, when you use storage in the cloud, you can have a different storage classes with degrees of performance. This solution does provide the option to choose a different target of storage. 

It would be good if we could provide our customers with a possibility, using this tool, to back up additional data using less expensive storage (like AWS Glacier does). 

This solution would be improved if our customers could simplify their graphic user interface and for it to be more user-friendly. 

We have used this solution for two years. 

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten. 

We have a public cloud deployment model.

It needs to be able to integrate with other emailing systems, like Linux.

It is very stable.

It is scalable.

I have not contacted the technical support.

The setup is very simple. It takes 15 minutes.

No help is required to deploy it.

The cost is a bit on the high side.

It is a perfect, mature product.
