Hi, thank you for the video. Very easy to follow. One question, do you know if the retention policy of 1 year, is item based, so if a email/file is older then 1 year, this wont be backed up. Or if the retention is snapshot based, so that it will backup up everything, and then save that for a year?

Jonathan, thank you!

Thanks Jonathan, very informative video. Our company currently uses Acronis but its worth knowing what Microsoft has got for customers. Thank you. I just subscribed ☺

Thanks for the explanation. We are looking for a backup solution for a customer, as they requested this feature. The pricing example is interesting... I find 225 for 1.5TB of data nothing compared to the benefits of the backup. Plus I expect MSFT to integrate better. If a company has so much data for only 50 employee's it probably important data so worth the extra 225 a month. And yes, other vendors are probably cheaper but there is always a catch.. either complex integrations... incremental cost when reaching a threshold.. I don't know. BTW, I don't think it's a reasonable example to have 10Gb of data in a mailbox.

Great feedback, thanks. 🙏 yes, backup is so important so it’s worth paying the extra for peace of mind. I think Microsoft will change the price within 6 months… watch this space!

One thing that will be interesting to compare is the speed of backup and restore. That seems to be a frequent issue with using a third party where large amounts of data are involved..

What is it a "Resource groups" for?

@ChristianRuiz-yw6ur Ай бұрын

How can we change the "Backup retention" to 3 years for example?

Microsoft backup sounds way expensive for 5.8 TB of data.

Question: How's does restores work? Is it a full restore or does it merge the data with current emails?

@radpetkov 3 ай бұрын

Is there documentation if you can restore data from previous specific point of time? Similar to shadow copy? I found that very difficult with Metallic (product of Commvault)

@bearded365guy 3 ай бұрын

Yes, tried to show it on the video.

@studiotwo 3 ай бұрын

Interesting. We only backup our SharePoint files at the moment. So, paying for data (rather than per user) may be a good option for some. How are they going to calculate these costs? Presumably if you wish to have retention on your backup, it will cost more?

@bearded365guy 3 ай бұрын

With the current pricing model, yes. I think Microsoft will change it when it comes out of Preview

I was going to say. We use Cirrus backup and we worked out we are paying a quarter of what MS are charging for our admittedly heavy use (We're always running out of Sharepoint storage so that's 1.5TB before even thinking about mailboxes and OneDrives). Also, you are paying for storage for all those historical copies stored too, not just current usage so the costs will increase over time. I also noticed the backup here was just for one year. Is this something you set up or is that the maximum they can provide? The backup we have is 7 years by default. What's the retention policy for deleted users? Is there one?

@bearded365guy 3 ай бұрын

My options were fairly limited in terms of backup options and I don’t agree with the pricing at the moment. But it’s still in preview and will change over the coming months.

If your tenant is down, what are you going to restore your files to? Our Veeam backup allows us to restore SharePoint documents to a file share, even if M365 is not available.

Vice versa what if Veeam is down how are u going to restore it? I have not had a single day of microsoft admin portal down despite in the IT field for 20 years. Cant say the same with Veamm.

@studiotwo 3 ай бұрын

Fair comment. But, I don't believe the Microsoft backup satisfies the 3-2-1 rule. I feel safer with a local copy of my SharePoint data.

@mitchellsmith4601 3 ай бұрын

Wait a second. If Microsoft is selling an O365 backup product, isn’t that a tacit admission that the Azure storage cloud is inherently flawed, and could lose data? A properly designed storage network (such as AWS) can withstand multiple simultaneous failures without data loss.

If you delete a file or email they can only be recovered for a set period.

ok, gotta nix some of those 'whooshing' sound effects -- that got annoying with haste - otherwise good video!

@mitchellsmith4601 3 ай бұрын

If you’re charging clients $125 a month for Acronis, they would be better off backing up to their own NAS or SAN over the long-term.

@marclnborg114 3 ай бұрын

You really have to think about the retention time, it's limited at the time being.

If I’m backing up 50tb…pay $ 7,500 monthly…crazy…

@bearded365guy 3 ай бұрын

Yes, it is.

@7thletterstudios648 3 ай бұрын

It seems crazy to be paying Microsoft to back up Microsoft 365 data. I feel like any viable use case for Microsoft 365 backup negates the entire Microsoft 365 premise as resilient infrastructure.

@bearded365guy 3 ай бұрын

What about accidental deletion internally?

@DruDubay 3 ай бұрын

I'd rather they drive the cost per GB down then go with per user pricing. This type of backup data storage should be sub $0.5/GB even through MS.

For security reasons, my global account shouldn't have the same access as my backup solution. If ransomware found itself in my tenant, the malicious actors have God rights to my backups. I want separate accounts for these things with separate means of getting an MFA token.

Without further ado...... But before we start. That's further ado my dude.

Seems Microsoft owns everything now. They replaced all companies that shared their MS Operatinf System. Only next step is to own the companies that use Microsoft products.

@mitchellsmith4601 3 ай бұрын

I’m supposed to pay Microsoft $75 a month to back up my 500 GB of mail data…because Azure is unreliable? don’t think so.
