- Data Retention

I was a new employee and didn't think the current backup solution was appropriate for the protection needed.
Using Veeam for 2 years prior I pitched it to manager to move over and DR days have dramatically shortened from full weekends to just get servers moved to now being able all to do it in the push of a button.

Currently moving to Microsoft 365 and have bought Veeam 365 licenses, however we do not use Cloud workloads currently.
Currently use CIF shares on NAS to hold offsite Backups.
