"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is the ease of use. You only need to create a folder in your drive and it's as simple as dragging and dropping files to store them.""Veeam Backup for Office 365 has good security, and I also like the process they use for backups.""Veeam makes modular solutions, so you can install Veeam Backup for Office 365 and Veeam Backup and Replication in one single server.

It takes 15 minutes.""The most valuable aspect of Veeam is its stability.""Its absolute functionality and intuitiveness are the most valuable features.""The most valuable features of the solution are the scalability and the free license of up to ten VMs.""I have used the technical support a few times and they've been reasonably helpful."

Cons
"Druva Phoenix is optimized to work with x86 platforms, making it unsuitable for backing up non-x86 architectures like AIX. The solution is primarily designed for physical Linux and Windows systems based on the x86 architecture, as well as virtualized Windows and Linux environments. However, if you have an AIX system, it cannot be deployed in the cloud, and therefore, backing it up in the cloud is not a concern.""There is room for improvement in the reporting aspect of Druva Phoenix.""Druva Phoenix should include a few reporting features that it doesn't provide currently.""They were able to give us a very reasonable price considering we were non-for-profit organizations, however, there is always room for improvement on that cost."

More Druva Phoenix Cons →

"It would be a great improvement to be able to recover cover a VM straight to on-prem.""The solution needs to introduce more features.""They should include some more options to send alerts in existing monitoring software.""Veaam Backup can be confusing for customers when they start trying to understand how to use the product in multiple environments.""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.""They could include WAN acceleration to compress the traffic to make things faster.""We use a yearly subscription. However, I believe the price could be lower.""Veeam's performance is inconsistent."
