We’re about to roll out 365 to all our users. Exchange Online mailboxes, Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint.

What solutions for backing up and restoring the data are you experienced with, and would recommend?

We currently use Veeam for VM backup, but their solution is a totally different product, not integrated with VBR. So since a separate product would have to be licensed and installed, we aren’t necessarily locked in to using Veeam for that too.

Thanks in advance.

    What I’m trying to achieve is backup and archival of data for long term retention and recovery.

    There are certain legal obligations that as an organization we need to fulfill. Being able to recover emails and data from up to 5 years ago. If a user leaves or deletes an email or a file that we suddenly need to reference years down the road, that is not possible with the retention tools MS gives us.

    So I’m looking for a solution that allows me to backup this data daily and store it for 5 to 7 years for future reference and recovery if needed.

      We just recently purchased Mail Assure with Cove Data Protection from N-able to achieve a similar goal, but unfortunately I don’t have any experience with it yet to advise if it is any good. It is an option though.
