Data Protection and Backup Solutions for Your Microsoft 365 Data

 

The Importance of Data Protection and Backup Solutions for Your Microsoft 365 Data

When it comes to productivity and collaboration tools, Microsoft 365 stands at the forefront. As of April 2024, four out of five Fortune 500 companies rely on Microsoft Office 365, and 60% of all businesses use Microsoft for their email and productivity needs. However, the critical question remains: How many of these organizations have a robust data protection and backup solution in place for all this essential data?

Microsoft 365 does offer some manual backup options, but relying solely on these features does not provide the comprehensive data protection your business truly needs. In fact, Microsoft's Services Agreement itself recommends using third-party backup solutions to complement their native data retention and recovery features. If Microsoft encounters an error, your backups could be at risk.
