I finally got the green light on budget, so I'm looking for a solution to back up my cloud-only Microsoft 365 environment. I've considered Avepoint since I've used them for migrations before, but I need to know if they're reliable for backups or if there are better options out there. What solutions are you all using?

I've been using Rubrik for three years now, and it's been fantastic. The setup process is simple and the restores are super fast. I highly recommend it!
I used Rubrik for a while, but their renewals got out of hand. I switched to Cohesity and it's been great, plus it's a lot cheaper!
Definitely check out Druva. It's easy to use and has solid support. I switched from another provider after a bad experience and I've been happy with it so far.
What's really great about Druva? I'm hearing conflicting reviews.
I use Druva too! Just wish they'd get around to adding support for Okta backups.
AFI is worth looking into! It's fast and user-friendly. I just requested a demo to see how it fits our needs.
I heard good things about AFI. Looking forward to your thoughts after the demo!
Just checked it out too, seems promising!
If you're searching for a straightforward cloud solution, consider Veeam integrated with Backblaze. It works well, just make sure it's tailored for your requirements.
I'm really aiming for a cloud-only approach, though... any all-cloud suggestions?
Yeah, local solutions can be tricky for what you're after.
We recently switched to 11:11. They offer unlimited storage and cover all the Microsoft 365 essentials without surprise costs. It might be a bit pricier, but it's definitely worth it for the peace of mind!
Interesting, I haven't heard about 11:11 before. I'll definitely check it out!
Sounds like a good fit for non-profits too! Thanks for sharing!

Is it very pricey? I've heard mixed things about renewal pricing.
