Office 365 backup with Datto

As organisations increasingly move data into cloud-based applications, many believe that traditional best practices like backup are outdated. Although SaaS applications are always available, accessible from everywhere and highly redundant, backup is still necessary.

1 in 3 companies report losing data stored in cloud-based applications. The main causes for data loss include:

• End user error
• Malicious end user activity
• Malware/ransomware attacks
• Accidental data overwrites
• Cancelled account subscriptions

With more companies than ever relying on Microsoft 365 for collaboration and business operations, backup is fundamental to keep your business secure. Whether its in the cloud, on-premise IT systems or an independent third party, SaaS backup solution is the best way to protect your organisation against data loss.

Datto SaaS Protection ensures MSPs can access, control and most importantly protect their clients’ Microsoft 365 data. This offers an all-in-one backup, search, restore and export solution for Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams.

Many organisations believe that Microsoft 365 data is automatically protected – but that’s only partially true. Although Microsoft does ensure you won’t lose your data, it doesn’t make any guarantees about restoring it if you do. Therefore, Microsoft 365 data is vulnerable to accidental malicious deletion, ransomware, and other types of data loss.
