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. n
