Cons
"We have found that there is a limitation in this solution where it only takes the backup of users who are using Office 365 Enterprise email IDs. We have many users in management and approximately 50 other users who are using Office 365 of which Veeam is able to capture the backup. However, for the other users who are on the local email server at that time, the solution is not able to capture the backup.""A while back, I had some trouble using the agent. It might be a problem with older versions. Sometimes, I also have issues installing or making backups from the console to that type of operating system.""It needs to be able to integrate with other emailing systems, like Linux.""The installation could always be a little bit easier. You do need to be a bit technical.""If you use a device to back up with compression and duplication, the solution doesn't work.""Pricing is an area for improvement, and I would rate it at five out of ten.""Some additional training materials would be helpful.""If clients are backing up onto tape, Veeam's newest versions don't really deal with that."

More Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 Cons →

"NetBackup should be made more user-friendly, and a video tutorial should be created to help new users understand how to configure and use the solution properly.""It would be nice if reporting was a bit easier.""Maybe a year and a half ago, during a backup, I had an updating issue with Java."
