Druva inSync Support for SaaS Apps and Endpoints

We use Druva for M365 protection including Exchange, OneDrive, Sharepoint and Teams. We also protect customer data in other areas such as Salesforce.

Scalability

Druva is a true cloud scale product. With Druva I'm only paying for the data that is being protected. This can scale up and down on a monthy basis as we consume more or less of the platform. The ability to add other enhanced feature as a bolt on means that I can tailor the solution to me my requirements.

Alternatives Considered

Rubrik, Commvault Complete Data Protection and Veeam Data Platform Foundation

Druva is a unique product in the data protection space and does things very differently. This means they are often presenting a very different approach to other vendors in the space. This usually leads to a more modern approach to protecting workloads in both on-prem and cloud environments including SaaS applications such as M365

Likelihood to Recommend

Druva is very strong in both the security of the platform and it's ability to protect cloud SaaS workloads such as M365. The whole design of Druva lends itself to a security first approach with design decisions such as air-gapped storage in the Druva cloud powered by AWS. M365 data protection is a very strong area of Druva and is personally the best product I've used in the space. Druva could speed up delivery of new feature releases, however it's good to know that they are thoroughly tested before release.
