Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud protects your M365 data
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup to backup our Microsoft 365 environment. We use all available options of the product: Exchange, Teams, OneDrive and Sharepoint. We have all our employees and students covered in the backup. The product helps us to restore data lost either by mistake or by possibly to neferious activity.
Pros
- It can cost effectively backup the entire M365 environment and retain backups indefinitely
- Restores can be very grannual, for example to restore single email message
- Implemention of the product is quite easy and fast
Cons
- Restores are search based. Sometimes this is challenging as users don't for example remember what the filename of lost file is or when it was lost.
- More to do with limitations of M365, but the suite of applications that are available to backup is limited.
Likelihood to Recommend
For its price the product is very cost effective. For our university it's important to be able to backup students as well as employees and other products tend to have at least limited cost to students. As there are so many students in our university the cost involved with other products would make them too costly. As the amount of data that is involved with M365 is so vast, it's also nice not to have extra cost involved for space used. The product is cloud based, so for some organizations that might be a problem.
