Disappoints. We are moving to Veeam 365

Likeliness to Recommend

6 /10

What differentiates Microsoft Azure Backup from other similar products?

The MS Azure back works but misses features that we can control using Veeam 365 instead and lacks support for many features that Veeam offers.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Its native to 365 so it works out of the box.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Lacks feature sets that Veeam offers.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you need basic backups then use this product. But I would recommend Rubrik or Veeam over this one.

  • Acts with Integrity
