In the most recent fiscal quarter, from Q3 2017 to Q4 2017, sales grew even faster with the release of Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 v1.5, at 327%, accelerating Veeam’s overall momentum – and reporting four consecutive quarters of growth.
Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 provides organisations with additional options to protect their data on top of the automatic data replication Microsoft provides across its data centres, as well as native resiliency controls available in Office 365. This combination lets companies have complete control of their data and ensure availability to their users.
As enterprises look to place more critical services in the cloud, there is a huge opportunity for those able to deliver the data protection and availability needed in this environment; Veeam is poised to lead this market.
“It’s a big mistake to think that enterprises no longer need to be concerned about ensuring availability and protecting their data in the cloud,” said Paul Mattes, Vice President of Global Cloud Group at Veeam.
