Microsoft Office 365 has been downloaded
by more than 55,000 organisations,
representing seven million Office 365 users.
This solution represents 549% year-over-

fastest-growing product. With the market
acceptance and demand of this solution, we

3 makes it easier to efficiently back up
and reliably restore Office 365 Exchange,
SharePoint and OneDrive data.
Steven Hill, Senior Storage Analyst at
451 Research, said: “Adopting Office 365
adds a flexible cloud dimension to storing
and sharing business data; however, data
protection isn’t included. Maintaining a
backup that’s independent of the Office
365 ecosystem offers assured data access,
protection and greater control over
business-critical email and documents.
Furthermore, the independent backup can
serve as a reference dataset for applications
such as eDiscovery and analytics.”
Preben Berg, CTO at Cloudio, a Silver
Veeam Cloud and Service Provider (VCSP)
partner, said: “Veeam Backup for Microsoft
Office 365 v3 is significantly faster, providing
greater efficiency. With the previous version,
the initial full backup for the OneDrive and
SharePoint site took about 35 minutes
running in parallel. Now, we were able to
finish it all in five minutes.”
