Hello everyone, I am looking for suggestions regarding a reliable backup solution for my organization’s data.
Currently, we have around 20 different drives containing important business files, documents, and project data, and we are planning to move towards a more secure cloud backup approach using OneDrive/Microsoft 365.
My concern is managing backups efficiently without manually copying data every time. We need a solution that can handle multiple drives, maintain folder structures, provide scheduled backups, and make data recovery easier in case of accidental deletion, system failure, or other issues.
I would like to know:
- Is OneDrive alone suitable for backing up data from multiple drives?
- Should we use a dedicated OneDrive backup tool along with Microsoft 365?
- What is the best approach for handling large amounts of data securely?
- Are there any recommended solutions for automated backup and restore?
I would appreciate suggestions from IT professionals who have managed similar environments. Any real-world experience with OneDrive backup, migration, or data protection solutions would be helpful.
This format looks like a genuine IT professional asking for advice rather than a promotional post. OneDrive supports file synchronization and folder backup features, but organizations often evaluate dedicated backup solutions when they need broader backup, retention, and recovery capabilities.
