Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Druva for backup up Office 365 items such as email, OneDrive, etc. for all of our users. The problems Druva addresses are both accidental and intentional deletion of data from our users or departed staff. The scope of our use case is organization-wide, so all users are protected from data loss in their Office 365 account.

Pros

Ensuring user's data is backed up with snapshots
Prompt and clear assistance from Druva support
Ease of access into the web portal
Providing a view into a snapshot without having to restore it first

Cons

The UI could be a little more clear.
The SSO setup was a little confusing.
The ticket creation procedure could be a little simpler.

Return on Investment

Ease of mind knowing our user's Office 365 data is backed up
Additional protection against accidental deletion of mailbox items

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It's been used across the organization for critical users laptop backup. End users' data which is not on file shares of the organization including flat files & most importantly outlook PST are being backed up. Data backup solutions are like insurance, we pay the premium for years & when there is accident or mishap then we get the claim. Our experience with Druva is excellent, whenever data was required for any user we got the same.

Pros

Hastle-free backup management via agent installed on the user's machine.
Cloud backup solution so backup happens every time, in office or outside office.
PST backup available which is not there in many solutions.
Excellent support from DRUVA, I never had an instance where call delayed from Druva support by 1 hour.

Cons

Fine tuning of the DRUVA agent as user face performance issues during first full backup.
Data restoration for users left is a bit tough procedure, needs to be easy.
Cost should be reduced.

Return on Investment

Data security.
Anywhere Data Restoration available.
Critical data availability at organization's fingertips.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Druva Security Cloud to backup and secure our 0365 and Entra ID environment. It keeps our data secure with immutability and makes all the data readily available in case data is accidentally deleted by a user or they need an older version of an email or document. It also helps us restore groups and users in Entra.

Pros

Set it and forget it
Easy to restore data
Support

Cons

Permissions within the console for non-IT users
Allow non-IT users to be able to search more specifically
Backing up more information on devices, specifially bitlocker keys

Return on Investment

Time savings. Restore takes me 3 minutes tops. Other platforms takes 30 minutes or more and require babysitting. Druva Security Cloud does not.
Backups are so simple. One pane of glass for our entire O365 environment.
Backend immutability protects from randsomware.
