Answer

What is Cloud Backup & Archiving?

Protect your cloud data properly

Backup and restore options for Microsoft 365 data, clear retention policies, and support for legal holds and compliance.

Problems we solve

What we typically untangle.

Microsoft Doesn't Back Up

Many businesses assume Microsoft backs up their data. They don't—you're responsible for your own data protection.

Accidental Deletion

Users delete emails, files, or entire folders by mistake. Without backup, recovery options are limited.

Compliance Requirements

Legal holds, eDiscovery, and retention requirements need proper archiving solutions.

Ex-Employee Data

When staff leave and licences are removed, their data can be lost unless properly archived.

Common questions

  • Microsoft provides data resilience but limited backup and recovery. Deleted emails are only recoverable for a limited period. We recommend third-party backup for comprehensive protection and long-term retention.
