Critical protection, fast

Microsoft delivers service availability, not complete data protection. Under its shared responsibility model, Microsoft explicitly recommends using a third-party backup solution to safeguard the business-critical data held in 365.

Build Resilience

Close the backup gap, protect vital configurations

Microsoft 365 data is vulnerable without comprehensive backup and long-term retention, increasing the risk of data loss, compliance failure, and operational disruption.

While Microsoft’s shared responsibility model protects the platform, it doesn’t deliver the depth and breadth of retention or recovery many organisations need to meet their own standards or compliance obligations.


Beyond backup

CloudCover 365 closes that gap with extended retention and broader protection, including critical Entra ID configurations that enable full, confident recovery.

Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) configurations define how your users access and interact with services on 365, and if they are not protected, they would need to be reconfigured in the event of a restore.

Exchange

Microsoft Exchange Backup

Exchange holds more than just email data. It's the heart of your business communication, managing calendars, contacts, tasks, and more. Could your business run without it?

For IT teams, ensuring constant email access and data integrity is paramount. Business continuity hinges on the smooth flow of communication through email, calendars, contacts, and collaboration tools like Teams – all of which reside within Exchange Online.

While data protection seems inherent in a cloud-based service like Microsoft 365, a critical gap exists: native recovery capabilities have limitations. Accidental deletions, security breaches, or even account compromises can lead to permanent data loss if not addressed proactively.

By implementing a comprehensive Microsoft 365 Exchange Backup and Recovery solution, IT managers can:

Eliminate Recovery Gaps: Ensure a complete and readily available backup of Exchange data, including emails, calendars, contacts, and Teams messages.

Mitigate Accidental Deletions: Facilitate swift recovery from accidental user deletions or mailbox corruption.

Respond to Security Threats: Restore critical data in the event of a ransomware attack or unauthorised access.

SharePoint

Simplify complex SharePoint backups

Enterprise-ready SharePoint Backup and Recovery. Protect against accidental deletion, malicious modifications, cyber attacks and more with CloudCover 365.

Ensuring data availability within SharePoint is crucial, but often difficult, due to SharePoint’s intricate and ever-growing structure. CloudCover 365 offers a simple way of protecting complex SharePoint data.

We’ve streamlined Veeam’s Microsoft 365 backup service, enabling organisations to protect and restore SharePoint assets with ease. Covering site collections, lists, document libraries, permissions, content types, sub-sites, views and more.

OneDrive

OneDrive Backup for the Enterprise

Access next-generation Backup and Recovery for OneDrive - protect critical business data with immutable Cloud storage as part of CloudCover 365.

The modern workplace thrives on collaboration. Cloud storage solutions like OneDrive for Business have become the backbone for seamless document sharing and real-time teamwork, regardless of location. However, as reliance on OneDrive grows, so does the vulnerability of your critical business data.

Along with file storage, OneDrive for Business also operates behind the scenes, quietly powering many of the services you rely on within Microsoft 365 – this usually means that a missing file has a much larger impact, and this intertwined storage structure creates a hidden vulnerability. If a user accidentally deletes a file from their OneDrive, it can also disappear from the Teams chat or channel where it was previously shared. This can disrupt workflows and hinder collaboration efforts.

Don’t let data loss in OneDrive disrupt your business. Experience the power of comprehensive backup and recovery – start your free trial of CloudCover 365 today.

Backup and Recover OneDrive files in a few clicks:

Employee-by-Employee and Folder-by-Folder Restore: Easily recover files for specific users or entire teams, depending on the nature of the data loss. Empower your IT team with flexible recovery to efficiently address a wide range of scenarios.

Peace of Mind: Knowing your entire Microsoft 365 ecosystem, including Teams and OneDrive, is fully protected means you can focus on other strategic initiatives with confidence.

Streamlined Management: Manage backups for all your Microsoft 365 data from a single, centralised console – simplify administration and save valuable time.

Teams

Enterprise Backup and Recovery for Microsoft Teams

Access fast, reliable, purpose-built Enterprise Backup and Recovery for Microsoft Teams as part of a full-fidelity Microsoft 365 backup service.

Microsoft Teams is a powerful collaboration hub, but its data storage presents a hidden challenge for IT admins: traditional backup solutions often fall short. Unlike typical applications with a central storage location, Teams scatters data across Exchange, SharePoint, and individual user OneDrives based on the feature used. This fragmented storage architecture can lead to incomplete backups, potentially leaving critical messages, files, and collaboration history unrecoverable during a disaster.

CloudCover 365 empowers IT managers with a comprehensive solution designed to address the unique data storage landscape of Microsoft Teams.

Simple Backup for a complex Teams environment:

Backup designed for Teams: Addressing this challenge head-on, CloudCover 365 offers a comprehensive backup solution designed specifically for Microsoft Teams.

Data capture across the 365 estate: It captures data from all relevant locations, including Exchange, SharePoint, and user OneDrives, ensuring a complete and secure backup and recovery of the entire Teams environment. This eliminates the risk of data loss and allows for seamless restoration in the event of a disaster.

Broad protection:  Back up and protect channel chats, messages, files, posts, and more.

Entra ID

Entra ID protection

To the right (or below on mobile) is a list of the Entra ID configurations you can back up within CloudCover 365:
