With so many people working remotely, it is more important than ever to back-up your Microsoft 365 data.
Microsoft only guarantees the availability of its service and does not provide comprehensive backups of Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams.
Microsoft itself recommends using third-party backup for your Microsoft 365 data.
"I think one of the primary misconceptions about backing up Office 365 data is that all of that is automatically managed by Microsoft.
"There is some backup that Microsoft provides in Office 365, but, right now, that is only a 30-day backup after a file has been deleted or overwritten, which for some companies is not sufficient.
"Companies need to do an evaluation on whether the default Microsoft backup policy is sufficient for their needs."
Nills Franssens, Senior Cloud Solution Architect at Microsoft
Barrcuda protects Microsoft 365 data
Barracuda supports all Microsoft 365 business services, including Teams, Exchange Online, SharePoint, and OneDrive.
Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup offers fast backups, highly granular restore capabilities, and unmatched ease of use.
It is a true SaaS backup solution with unlimited storage and retention.
Barracuda is a cloud native platform
As the workforce becomes increasingly dispersed, adopting cloud-based apps like Microsoft Teams for productivity and communication has become commonplace.
Protecting Microsoft Office 365 data requires a modern cloud-native approach. The new version of Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup is built and runs natively in the cloud, which enables fast set up, simple management, and no maintenance.
As a cloud-native platform, the backup service can run across a range of locations around the world.
The dashboard offers a fast and modern user interface and better visibility into backup and restoration jobs. It also includes a simple management tool that the company says will make it easier for OneDrive to find your backup jobs and quickly restore a specific one.
The latest version of Barracuda's Cloud-to-Cloud backup also can extend to new data sources such as additional SaaS applications, integrate with Barracuda's security services, and add new data security capabilities such as data classification and data loss prevention.
