Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Being able to move data seamlessly from one-premise to the cloud (Azure). It works great. The backup solution is perfect for us."
"The solution is very easy to use and it offers great support."
"The most valuable feature is the portability of large archived data. You're able to put things on large on-prem, low-cost storage and then augment that with even lower cost storage in the cloud."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is easy to use and integrate with whichever operating systems you use, providing you with a complete view, especially when you plan to migrate to some other operating system."
"It's pretty simple. Once you set it, it goes; and then the idea of being able to get it to the cloud very quickly. It's kind of a set-it-forget-it."
"The solution can be used for all Office 365 applications."
"It's so easy to work with."
"Most importantly is having that island into that datacenter, and being able to address things in the same console. Thus, it is irrelevant where it's stored."
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is the backups, we do not want to lose any files. Each one of the files is updated on a regular long-term basis and kept together in the Microsoft cloud-only."
"I want an additional copy of my data in the Office cloud and it works."
"It is very easy to integrate. You can do it very fast."
"Veeam makes modular solutions, so you can install Veeam Backup for Office 365 and Veeam Backup and Replication in one single server. You can do an all in one installation, and roll it out."
"The solution is also easy to manage and work with."
"The most valuable feature is that we don't need different agents to back up our files from different accounts."
"The tool is easy to use and straightforward regarding restoration and creating backups. It's user-friendly, providing results and sending alerts when something goes wrong."
"Veeam Backup gives you the option to backup your data from the cloud to on-premises."
"It would be nice if the solution was more complete. Many customers are looking for a single solution or silo that they can manage everything from. It would be nice, instead of having different products, if everything a client needed was in one solution."
"What could be helpful is different user base authentication so then maybe we could allow different customers to point to a single appliance and they only see the backups and things that they have."
"The solution needs faster indexing."
"It's a good product, but it's becoming outdated and moving to their other primary architecture."
"There are some bits it could do better. With tighter integration maybe with Veeam, or something like that, it'd be really good."
"The initial setup phase of the tool was difficult."
"More than a 500 volume limit. At the moment, it only supports up to 500 volumes for SnapMirror and that's a problem. We've got 750, so a larger limit for volume replicas for SnapMirror."
"More capacity with the basic model of the AltaVault would probably help out."
"The solution could offer better reporting."
"Pricing is an area for improvement, and I would rate it at five out of ten."
"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."
"The pricing model is unnecessarily confusing and could be simplified."
"When you are working in the Cloud security is very important."
"The solution announced many features two years ago, and they still have not happened, so I would hope that the next release has these ready to go."
"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."
"The license pricing can be reduced."
