What differentiates Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 from other similar products?

The familiar Veeam GUI is simple to use and adaptable. A well-designed console with simple controls. Configurability abounds, as do quick restorations. Management of numerous Office 365 organisations and installations. Can handle both solo O365 instals and complicated hybrid installations.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Rapid backup of a user's entire Office365 data - mailbox, sites, OneDrive, and so on. Incrementals are very fast, and the ability to peruse a backed up mailbox in an email-client-like interface is excellent; much better is the ability to compare a backed up mailbox to production and, if required, restore anything immediately - which is seamless.

What do you dislike most about this product?

This is a tricky setup. It took some time to complete the necessary setup, which was especially difficult in a hybrid environment. Some of the powershell requirements are difficult to locate and execute.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Carry it out. It is well worth the money for the simplicity of usage and setup.
