Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365

We originally used Veeam to back up our Microsoft 365 exchange accounts to our on-prem storage, but as we developed SharePoint and began using OneDrive for large file shares with our customers, we started running out of storage. Veaam Data Cloud resolved this issue. We reduced our bandwidth usage as well because those backups now go cloud to cloud instead of cloud to local.

Pros

  • Comprehensive Backup Coverage
  • Fast and Flexible Recovery
  • Automated and Scalable Backup Management

Cons

  • Limited Integration with Third-Party Tools
  • Restore Testing Could Be More Automated
  • User Interface Complexity for New Admins
  • Reduced Downtime and Faster Recovery
  • Improved Compliance and Audit Readiness
  • Cost Predictability and Scalability
We knew we need to back up our office 365 data from the start. We had a ransomware issue in 2021 and knew it could happen again. Immutable back-ups were a must. It only made sense to continue with our cloud data as well. Keeping it in the cloud as the first level of back up was also a no-brainer.
The interface is intuitive and familiar. This made the initial setup pretty straightforward. Veeam's documentation and youtube tutorials were also helpful. It being an all in one solution for my Microsoft 365 needs was awesome. Bundling software, infrastructure and storage into a single service, reduced complexity significantly. Licensing complexity could be improved.
I recently introduced a new email retention policies via exchange DLP. I thought I was clear about the results of these new policies, but a handful of users lost "important emails" and needed them restored. It was a quick and easy process to bring them back and resolve their issue.
We have used all of these methods recently. Restoring directly to the original location is excellent and preferred, but we recently needed information from a user that had left the company and her mailbox was deleted. We still had a few recovery points with her email and were able to .zip it and send it.
Granular Restore Options. What I Like: You can restore individual emails, files, calendar items, or Teams messages without needing to recover an entire mailbox or site. Goal It Helps Achieve: This saves time and minimizes disruption. For example, if a user accidentally deletes a single important email, IT can restore just that item in minutes—keeping productivity high and avoiding unnecessary data recovery.
We were already familiar with Veeam and had an ongoing relationship with them, so it made sense to stick with them. We always do our due diligence and research other options though. CodeTwo would have taken care of us, but didn't offer any additional features and had some limitation we weren't willing to compromise for.
Veeam support has always been excellent. Whether contacting them through the portal or email and taking our time replying and testing their suggestions or on a high priority phone call getting something fixed as quickly as possible, their support has always been excellent. Good Customer Services separates the good companies from the bad!

Ransomware Preparedness and Recovery - Immutable backups prevent tampering, granular restore of files, folders, or entire accounts, automated backup schedules and alerts. Multi-Departmental Organizations with Varying Needs - Mix-and-match licensing (Flex, Express, Premium), custom retention and backup scopes per group, scalable to thousands of users. Veeam may be overkill for small businesses with minimal IT resources - Advanced features may be unnecessary, setup and management could be complex without IT staff, other lightweight, plug-and-play solutions might be more cost-effective.
