Comfort tool to organize backup for Office365

  • February 12, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
easy handling, stable, no errors during backup or restore. Best of breed. I have had several products in portfolio, to check. But nothing makes more sense, than the implementation of Veeam.
Together with Veeam Backup and Restore, it is a fine combination of perfect backup and Restore. The possibility, to combine these products in a lucrative valued pricing method is also great. Hotline and helpcenter is very good and friendly. Updates comes in short periods, quick solutions are posted in frequently asked questions.
What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes speed is slow, but I thin it depends on line to provider. Backup line to Veeam cloud is sometimes slow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When managers or emoyees leave the company, we have to make sure, that their eMail data keeps alive, without paying a licence for Office 365.
The easy local restore is a fine way, to be conform with TS/16949. The auditors are very astonished about the speed of Recovery a mail from the backup device. Now, we can handle the external backup nice and comfortable. The three generation backup could be implemented here without any problems. First backup on SAN, second on tape, and third in the Veeam cloud. The pricing for the veeam cloud is very interesting, if costumers like we, have problems to build up a clean and effective backup infrastructure.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
check the market, but it's difficult to find software, which can concurate with veeam in this topic. It's amazing.

Easy to use, once configured.

  • February 11, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Familiar Veeam GUI, easy to use and flexible. Well laid out console with intuitive options.

Lots of configurability, fast restores. Ability to manage multiple office 365 organizations and deployments. Can handle standalone O365 deployments as well as complex hybrid ones.
What do you dislike about the product?
Tricky setup. Took some time to get the requisite setup done, especially challenging for a hybrid environment. Some of the powershell prerequisites a little challenging to find and execute.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Backup on longterm data that users may delete, keeping archives longer than the standard 30 day period.

Great Solution to Backup Cloud Email and Sharepoint

  • January 09, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The setup is a breeze, you can be backing up your cloud mailboxes in under 30min. Restoring is a breeze and many available options.
Its a great way to have long term retention for deleted mailboxes.
What do you dislike about the product?
the sharepoint/one drive licensing is a little vague, especially if running in a hybrid environment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
the 30 day retention for deleted item within 365 is not enough for users to realize something is missing or in the case of departing employees data can be lossed forever. User archiving could be done via PST files but this is never a really ideal situation.

Great product for complete Office365 Backup

  • January 08, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Speedy backup of user's complete Office365 data - mailbox, sites, OneDrive etc.
Incrementals are very quick, and being able to browse a backed up mailbox in an email-client type view is very good - even better is the ability to compare a backed up mailbox to production and if necessary restore anything directly - which is seamless.
What do you dislike about the product?
With large Office365 accounts, especially one with lots of sites or folders within OneDrive, there are issues where jobs don't complete 100% successfully. Sometimes they just time out (perhaps a Microsoft throttling issue) or there just don't seem to back up everything. It would be handy to see more granular details in these events.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It addressed our requirements for making sure we were proactive in protecting our Office365 data, and gave us full control over it.

It gives peace of mind to users too when it comes to accidental deletion or any corruption.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I have seen Acronis' alternative in action before and wasn't anywhere near as impressed with it - compared to Veeam it seemed more cumbersome, and as we were already using other Veeam products and have good experience of their support, we decided to go with another Veeam product.

Una excelente herramienta para Office 365

  • January 07, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
One of the best features offered by the product is to have Office 365 backups personalized and programmed by us. Many people believe that having data in the cloud makes them safe, but it's not quite like that. While the data is hosted by Microsoft, we remain responsible for the integrity and backup of the information. I think it is a missing product and it is very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Few things I have to say against, since the product has great functionality, but I think you could continue adding features such as Teams conversations backup for example.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem that is solved with Veeam for Office 365 is to have reliable backup copies of the information that is stored in OneDrive and Sharepoint, in addition to email accounts. In our case, for example, we backup our corporate Intranet based on Sharepoint using the tool and we know that we are protected before any problem that may arise in the infrastructure.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
One recommendation I would give would be to take seriously the backups of our information stored in cloud providers. It is a common mistake to think that our data is protected but the agreed policies that we accept when using these services clearly indicate that they are not responsible for our information. It is within the good practices to make backup copies of the ebn cloud information and even more so of Office 365, since the information we store grows every day and we must be protected.

Don't think you need to backup your Office 365 mailboxes, think again!

  • January 07, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and robust functionality of Backup for Office 365, makes protecting all of competent platforms simple. All post office users, SharePoint and especially OneDrive files are protected from accidental or intentional deletion by the end user or an Administrator. In the unfortunate event that something deleted, restoring an individual file or an entire mailbox is accomplished with minimal interaction. You can apply search filters during the restore process which utilizes the standard nomenclature everyone is familiar with. And finally, you can restore as individual MSG files or in a PST file.
What do you dislike about the product?
Seriously, since Cloud repository was added I do not have a single gripe about the application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Protecting Legal Hold contractual information outside of Microsoft's seriously deficient eDiscovery functionality has been a God send.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Know that you can utilize exiting Veeam backup and replication infrastructure to do double-duty if necessary.

Good Product, but has some annoying problems.

  • January 07, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This product genrally works flawlessly! I set it up and then forget about it. I get daily emails showing that it completed (or if there were any issues, and there rarely are). I love the ability to easily archive a user's mailbox to PST file when they leave the company. It's fast and very easy. The capability to do this within Office365 is very difficult and slow.
What do you dislike about the product?
We had some issues during setup determining how to correctly choose what to include and what to exclude. They could improve on this part of the setup tremendously.
There is no way to remove data from the backup that is no longer necessary, like old users that haven't worked at your company for 10 years.
Also, it's very cumbersome when an employee leaves and you delete their account from Office365, the Veeam Office 365 backups will start failing. You have to also go into the Veeam backup job settings and specifically exclude that employee from the backup, and that employee's personal SharePoint Site, or the backup job will continue to try and backup that user's account, and generate errors when it doesn't find it, even though it should be clear that the account was deleted out of Office365.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
First, backing up our Office365 data. We were not doing this previously as Office365 does not contain any methods for doing this. We also had difficulty archiving a user's mailbox to PST file when they left the company with just the tools in Office365, which are difficult and take too long. With Veeam, this is very simple and quick.

Good product that still needs some work

  • January 07, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The setup was very easy. The product works well on a regular basis the only time I have really had an issue was after an upgrade. Restores are very simple to do and have worked each month that we have tested them. Veeam support is always good each time that I have had to contact them, which fortunately has not had to be very often.
What do you dislike about the product?
Even through you set a retention policy, for example 1 year, it still keeps a full year of data until the year is up. For example, it will not clean up the 2018 data until 1/1/20 so you have 2 years of data even though you have a 1 year retention policy. This could be an issue for compliance. The upgrades have gotten better but still have a few issues after every time I do. Each time I have done an upgrade was because support said that they upgrade will fix an issue that I have had and after the upgrade I had to go back to them to fix an issue that I have had. The last one wasn't too bad to do so the process is improving.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were relying on MS backups, which are really just replication so we didn't have any long term retention of our O365 data. That hole is now fixed. When I have had to do a restore it was very simple and accomplished quickly. You have the option to restore to the mailbox or to download to a .pst which is a nice option.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We are an SMB and it works well in our environment.

Great Backup Solution for O365

  • January 07, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The speed of backup, and easy restore process
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that there is no mobile app for Veeam to access it from anywhere
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We now have backups and retention policies for O365 mailboxes, something we don't get (unless you pay more) from Microsoft themselves
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend Veeam for Office 365 backup. This ensures at a affordable price, that your mailboxes are backed up and your retention polices are meet
