CodeTwo Email Signatures 365 vs. Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365

As the setup is guided and simple, the signature solution is quickly set up and configured. From the creation of the CodeTwo Email Signatures 365 environment to the connection with M365, all steps are well documented and automated as far as possible. Once set up, the signature can be used quickly via the integrated signature editor. The creation of the rules for when which signature is used is also well managed, so that the functionality can be provided quickly. Existing signatures can also be imported as HTML code.

Analyzing campaign performance is a great area where the Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 is well-suited, and it’s working well. In the past, when we analyzed campaign performance, we had to use outside vendors, which was a time-consuming, laborious, and costly process.

• I would absolutely love to see the introduction of being able to force a branding format (Font, size etc) across our email real estate, this was a feature moons ago but would love to see this come back especially when Microsoft can kill all this for you at the drop of a hat....erm Aptos makes me sad!
• Easier to navigate training and how to videos to allow you to work out how to make changes and be creative yourself more
• I genuinely cant think of another point here!

• I would like the option to remove users from the backup and set them to an alternate storage location/ archive location. Currently, my backups are at 7 TB, and I would like to segment out data with lower data retention requirements.

The solution is pretty much set-and-forget. It does what it needs to do, nothing more, nothing less, and it does it very well.

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 just works so well and is so easy to use. I researched multiple options for Office 365 backup and none seemed to be as easy to setup and use as Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 and the pricing was very comfortable to us. I can't imagine any reason why we would change away from Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365.

The implementation of the application was very simple. With just a few clicks, the Outlook add-in was rolled out and the first signature was assigned to a test group. From that point on, I was able to familiarize myself with the product very well with my team and get a feel for how we carry out a smooth onboarding. In the meantime, all our employees have switched to CodeTwo Email Signatures 365 and send every single email with the correct signature. Administration is very easy for us. Adding new people to the signature groups works smoothly. We recently changed our entire signature to a new format. Within a few minutes, all our colleagues had the new signature, even without restarting Outlook. The product has shortened our daily support many times over and we are happy to be able to continue using it in the future.

The interface is simple, but powerful. It's easy to setup, easy to use. It's able to restore individual files and emails with ease. Would like to see the wording on some features cleared up, as it's caused us some confusing learning the tool.

We have not witnessed any downtime so far ...

I have yet to need it during any of their scheduled maintenance windows. It's always online.

There are no performance issues related

We have a lot of data, and pulling backups out of the store sometimes takes a bit of time - but this is within acceptable tolerances. I don't expect restores to be instantaneous, and I can't quantify if the speed is software or data repository.

No problems but we had a couple of questions about functionality or edge use cases and anytime I contacted CodeTwo Email Signatures 365 support I was absolutely happy with their responses. Very helpful, polite and smart people are working over at CodeTwo Email Signatures 365 support. I would suggest other companies to take note on CodeTwo Email Signatures 365's quality of support and service.

The setup support we received was extremely helpful. They allowed us to learn as they created the policies and managed the handoff between setup and guided setup very well. This resulted in active, usable policies and us having the knowledge to adapt these as our needs change in the future.

It is important to make sure Active Directory is correctly populated and that content is standardized, eg telephone number formats.

Would have marked a 10 but the storage in AWS was very complicated. Would be nice to have more help/guidance connecting to external storage.

We decided on CodeTwo over Exclaimer as the user interface was easier for us to work with. As an MSP, we found that the ability to manage all our tenants in one view was simple and the best fit for our needs. CodeTwo also worked out at nearly half the price of Exclaimer and offered us better margins.

First and foremost, Veeam's reputation stood out. They have been a leader in the backup vendors for a few years. That reputation along with recommendations from colleagues sold us on Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365. The other vendors that we did demo's with were lacluster in setup and performance. Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 immediately won us over.

The product is very reliable :-)

I have had no issues scaling this software as my organisation or data estate has grown. It always does exaclty what it says on the box.

• Marketing Effectiveness: Utilizing email signatures as marketing tools has enhanced our promotional efforts, leading to higher engagement and conversion rates. We can put banner on company news, etc and easily update this routinely.
• Time Savings: Automating the management of email signatures has significantly reduced the time and effort required from our IT team, allowing them to focus on other critical tasks. It's also simplified end user workflow as they no longer need to worry about signatures
• Brand Consistency: Ensuring uniform email signatures across the organization has strengthened our brand image

• The only real impact is from a compliance standpoint. Our company is expected at a regulatory level to be protecting our data and even though the tenant has little traffic there could still be some regulated data in there. We have to be able to tell an auditor that it's being backed up by an enterprise grade solution, and that's what VDC was intended for.
