"Veaam technical support, from my perspective, is one of the best technical support I've ever engaged with.""The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is the WAN accelerator. This feature allows for large amounts of data from one location to another. If the bandwidth in the environment is slow it makes the transfer slow but the WAN accelerator feature helps speed the transfer.""The solution is stable.""Veeam Backup for Office 365 has good security, and I also like the process they use for backups.""It is easy to use and easy to recover files.""The solution is also easy to manage and work with.""The feature that I like the most is the system backup recovery from OneDrive.""It is a stable solution."

Cons
"There is room for improvement in the pricing. This is the issue, the reason why we started using Synology.""Boxafe's pricing policy should be more flexible."

More Boxafe Cons →

"Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by reducing the time it takes for backups. I have mentioned this to Veeam and hopefully, in the next version, it will be a faster backup.""This solution does provide the option to choose a different target of storage.""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.""When using Veeam Backup for Office 365 when there is a server that's running, I have to have a hard drive installed on it. For example, if I want to use another storage solution, I can't incorporate it very well. If I want to use SMB or other protocols I cannot use them with the Veeam Backup for Office 365. They have the support in the other Veeam Backup and Restore solutions, but it doesn't support it in this solution. Hopefully, in the future, they figured it out.""Some additional training materials would be helpful.""In the next release, it should have direct export to tape drive abilities and NDMP support.""As with all things, the solution can be improved by reducing the cost.""This is a cloud solution, and the speed can be slow sometimes."
