We backup our whole Office 365 estate, which includes Exchange, Sharepoint/One Drive. It has allowed us to easily recover emails that have been lost by end-users. Our biggest concern before using Veeam for Office 365 was that we were not protected in the event of some data loss. With this solution, we have peace of mind that in case of a catastrophic event we would be able to recover everything.
  • Simple setup
  • Easy to restore files
  • Quick at backing up
  • Be able to exclude non licensed Office 365 accounts
Using Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365, we've had many occasions were someone has deleted emails or files on Sharepoint and we have been easily been able to recover the file before it was deleted or even changed within minutes not hours. This has allowed people to get back to work quicker.

We use Veeam for all our other backup needs and this product complements that offering very well and gives a simple feel with its ease of use.


  • Quick recovery
  • No data loss
  • Simple to setup
We were looking for a new backup solution for our business and wanted to be able to backup all our VMs as well as Office 365 so we could ensure we were always covered. Veeam Backup & Replication doesn’t have 365 backup within it so we looked to Veeam for 365 and it was a perfect project to go alongside.
Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 is super simple to use:
  1. Install
  2. Hook to 365
  3. Select what to backup
  4. Done
It couldn’t be any more simple to use but it can do lots more stuff as well. The API is very useful. We have a Grafana dashboard hooked up to the data pulled from the API as well to give us more visability.
This has happened many times where a user has deleted the wrong file or wrong email and it's always the most important file or email. With Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365, we've always been able to recover the item within minutes allowing the user to get back to their day and not costing the company money waiting for the work they need doing to be completed.
We tend to use restore to 365 or restore to zip. It depends on the situation at the time but all options work very well.
Backs up everything important in our 365 estate, and it is simple to use.
  • Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery
It's a much cheaper product and is a lot simpler to use. We chose Veeam because it does what we need and Veeam for 365 was needed as part of that purchase.
We've had to Veeam support a few times, and it's always been easy to get an answer to our question and have it resolved very quickly.

We use Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 to backup and safeguard our Office 365 email and files. All of our Office 365 email accounts and OneDrive files are being backed up to our local Storage Area Network devices. Since we are a medical practice, email and file security are very important and Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 gives us the security we need to protect our information.
  • Backs up Office 365 email accounts.
  • Has multiple retention points to prevent accidental data loss.
  • Nothing major. Cosmetic improvements, and maybe a little more control and options in the setup screens.
Without a doubt, my favorite backup solution for Office 365. Very simple to set up, use and maintain, and the pricing is very favorable. Keeping our emails secure from data loss, accidental or otherwise, is very critical to us as a medical practice. Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 gives us that protection.

  • Inexpensive solution for email and file data security.
  • Multiple recovery points is critical.
Once we switched to Office 365 I realized we had no other way to securely back up our emails. Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 provided us with that solution and fit within our budget. Excellent product, excellent support, and excellent security for our data. Highly recommended to anyone using Office 365.
Simple to setup and use. Implementation was so quick and easy and everything just happens in the background so there is no impact on the user experience. Our administrators have been able to recover a missing email and file quickly and with multiple options for recovery points. I can't imagine anything being any better or easier to use.
The loss of data is critical in our industry. Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 gives us multiple retention points and multiple storage locations so we have complete data security. We have had to restore missing emails and files and it was so easy to do. We had simple choices of which files or email version we wanted to restore. So easy.
Being able to restore files to other locations is critical and allows you to preview the recovered file while still having access to the current file. We have had to recover an older version of a file to retrieve data from it to update the current version of the file so we didn't lose the data that was missing from the current file but stored in the older version.
Simple and easy to install, setup and configure. Anyone with even basic skills should be able to accomplish the install and configuration. Once it is installed and running, there is almost no maintenance required. Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 is so easy to use when you need to find an older version of a file or email and recover it.
Since we already used Veeam Backup and Replication, it was a natural and easy choice to add Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 to our backup solution. We researched online several other similar products but didn't feel the need to actually set them up to see that we would be happy with Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365.
Veeam had always provided us great support on the few occasions we have had to reach out to them for assistance, though we have never had to call them for our Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365. Veeam has always been very helpful and responsive and we have no doubt the same will be true if we ever need their assistance with Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365.

Our IT administrator manages the Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 backups for all of our users. It was very easy to setup and manage and the backups have been very useful in allowing us to recover some lost emails. Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 has been very beneficial to us and we are so happy that we started using it.

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is very easy to use, but we only allow our IT administrator to manage the Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 system since on the IT administrator has access to the server that the Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is running on. It's easy enough to use that almost anyone could be trained to use it.
  • Preventing lost email, contacts and appointments by keeping copies of everything.
  • Versioning allows us to have access to data at a certain point in time which is very useful
  • The security of knowing everything is being backed up.
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.
  • Setting up the back repository was very simple.
  • Adding users to the backup and excluding certain things from backups was easy to do.
  • Restoring a email, contact or appointment was simple and gave me the option of the point in time I wanted to restore it from.
  • Nothing was really cumbersome.
  • The initial setup was a little technical and probably would give some non technical users headaches, but I think anyone with IT experience could handle it ok.
Yes
The upgrade process is so easy. I choose upgrade from the main menu and it checks for any new versions, then I just click upgrade and click ok a few times and it upgrades itself. It couldn't be much easier. I have it set to email me when new versions are available and then I am able to upgrade my install within a few minutes.
  • They keep making improvements and repairing bugs, so that's the major thing.
  • More storage repository options are added all the time.
  • Some new features that I probably won't use but that will benefit others.
