KeepitVeeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365
Considered Both Products
Keepit
Chose Keepit
We focused on simplicity, data residency, and cost. Keepit stood out as the best option across all three. We didn’t want to manage or worry about where data was stored, as with tools like Veeam, and we didn’t need the extra features that came with platforms like Rubrik. Keepit …
Chose Keepit
When we were comparing the two solutions, Veeam still had an on-premise backup solution for M365 on which we needed to provide our own storage, be it in the cloud or on-prem. This ment extra cost. Keepit was fully SaaS and came with their own storage. After a POC we decided on …
Chose Keepit
A bit more complicated to work with; many options and checks to consider.
Chose Keepit
Usability, cost and performance. SaaS based solution. No egress costs to restores or storage costs.
Chose Keepit
Veeam is rocksolid product that we know for years. Keepit brings it to another level. - built-in storage - cloud native - low complexity.
Chose Keepit
We previously used Veeam to backup data from O365 to local servers. We had other SaaS platforms we needed to include and move from local to cloud backups. While Veeam does have multiple cloud options but compared with Keepit it was overly complicated and less cost effective. …
Chose Keepit
First of all, price.
Second, Keepit can do more than competitors, in speed, in consistency,and in functionality
Chose Keepit
Ease of use and quick integration. Non ownership of resources. Cheep and reliable storage. Cross cloud secure.
Chose Keepit
For Veeam, we needed local storage, whereas Keepit will provide the storage for you. Veeam also doesn't have a cloud service, so we needed a local virtual machine to run the software and the backup. Keepit will provide the storage (1TB per user license) for the same cost as …
Chose Keepit
- Cloud to cloud backup solution - backup as service, without need to provision any local resource on-premise or in Azure
- Blockchain based storage means enhanced security against ransomware
- Great value for money and no hidden costs
Chose Keepit
Veeam retrieves all data and sends it to a local storage. The advantage of Keepit is that the data goes directly to their data center without the intervention of an on-premise backup server.
Chose Keepit
Powerful and very cost-effective. Simple to use, support was always there and seems to have better features in the roadmap compared to the alternatives out there.
Chose Keepit
Keepit offers more functionality than the competition and it is easier to use. Additionally, you don't have to worry about any local hardware or storage.
Chose Keepit
Veeam looked very promising (and we are using it for our on-premise servers) but Keepit is much cheaper
Chose Keepit
Also, we have evaluated Veeam backup for Microsoft 365 but it's a hybrid solution which means we have to build up a server and prepare cloud storage. Finally, we prefer to use SaaS to be in line with the Cloud-first strategy.
Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365
Chose Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365
Keepit is fully cloud based whereas Veeam is a local installment.
Keepit provides you with the storage whereas veeam lets you use your own storage (either cloud of on-prem)

Keepit
Any company that deals with the retention of important data should have Keepit to ensure operational security and data confidentiality. In scenarios such as using file servers in SharePoint, Teams, or Google Workspace, it's a tool that offers complete integration and helps save IT a lot of time on security incidents or human errors in file deletion. The fact that it only restores what is not in the folder, or backs up each version of the file given the snapshot date you choose, is fantastic. Toda companhia que lida com retenção de dados importantes, deve ter o keepit para garantir a segurança da opeção e confidencialidade dos dados, cenários como utilização de file server de arquivos no sharepoint, equipes do teams ou google workspace é uma ferramenta que tem total integração e ajuda a poucar muito tempo da TI em incidentes de segurança ou erros humanos na exclusão de arquivos. o fato dele só restaurar o que não coném na pasta, ou fazer o backup de cada versão do arquivo dado o dia do snapshot que você escolhe é maravilhoso.

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.

Pros
Keepit
  • Cross tenant restores, allows you to migrate mailboxes from one tenant to another.

  • The setup and ongoing maintenance is great, articles on how to setup security and gain access to data in a secure way is also a great feature
  • The interface is very intuitive and easy to navigate, it hides an awful lot of power

Cons
Keepit
  • It would be great if they showed delta changes automatically instead of having to manually complete it
  • When completing a cross-tenant restore (which works well) the notifications are hard to understand and use GUID's instead of DisplayNames
  • It would be great if it backed up more than M365/Entra
  • Bulk restore limited to 5k items

  • 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.

Keepit is an awesome product that garantees a result with a simple interface, and a quick configuration integration. Nowadays the service is really good and all requests have been replied to very quickly, and that´s important for our satisfaction. The possibility of multiple points recovery is a plus as 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.

Usability
Keepit
Such a simple solution to use. User friendly, intuitive, processes can be completed in minutes instead of hours with restoring from tape, and requesting the return of tapes from the off site location, thus saving many hours and cost of storage. Also gives the end user a better experience as files can be restored almost immediately.

Veeam Software
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.

Veeam Software
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.

Support Rating
Keepit
Support helped us to set up SSO and MFA with our Azure AD Accounts. Once when the backup was failing, they could help us to investigate the reason and find a stale account that was preventing the backup. They are really concerned that the backup works and not only want to close the ticket like other support hotlines.

Veeam Software
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.

The communication from KeepIT was on point, we did the implementation based on very little information as it was so easy to deploy, yet super powerful, it is a great tool.

Really easy, but we are not a big company. I am not backing up all users, just those that could fire me.

We previously used Veeam to backup data from O365 to local servers. We had other SaaS platforms we needed to include and move from local to cloud backups. While Veeam does have multiple cloud options but compared with Keepit it was overly complicated and less cost effective. Keepit was a no-brainer in terms of simplicity and having a single 360 dashboard.

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.

Return on Investment
Keepit
  • User productivity increase when the users didn't need to manually recreate data when it was lost. Estimation of past cases: 100,000 $ per year
  • Company blackout on disasters: pricelessly :-)
  • Admin cost reduction, no more tape changes and storage costs: 10,000 $ per year

Veeam Software
  • 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.
