Is BaaS vendors' cookie cutter approach to backup holding you back?
BaaS vendors typically provide easy deployment - but at a sacrifice. Most do not
offer the flexibility or functionality needed to tailor data protection to YOUR
business needs.
Check out Veeam‑powered BaaS & DRaaS benefits compared to BaaS from vendors, such as AvePoint, Barracuda, Datto Backupify, Druva, Keepit, Metallic, NetApp SaaS Backup, SkyKick, and Spanning.
Veeam-powered Service Providers benefits
BaaS vendors limitations
All workloads
Complete platform
Protect all your virtual, physical, SaaS and cloud workloads with a single platform.
Point-product
Complexity of using separate vendors and platforms to protect all your workloads.
BaaS vendors typically protect only one kind of workload.
All data protection services
Broad set of backup services
Use the cloud any way you want, with direct backup, backup copy, archiving, DR, or fully
managed services. Veeam-powered Service Providers deliver a wide range of services to
fit any need.
Single type of service
Complexity of using separate vendors and platforms to get all the backup services you
need.
Most BaaS vendors deliver one type of service, leaving you to find other solutions that
may not integrate.
Customizable
Flexible backup settings
Fully adapt backup to your needs by customizing the backup services’ settings, such as
backup frequency (RPO).
Rigid backup settings
Inability to configure backup exactly as needed, as settings are typically hardcoded and
cannot be customized for individual customers (or offer marginal options).
Great customer services
Dependable SP & vendor
Whether you choose a regional, national or global Service Provider, you can rest easy
knowing your partner and your vendor have a deep bench of backup experts familiar with
your environment and can provide unmatched user resources and customer support.
Undependable vendors
BaaS vendors have typically fewer than 200 employees globally, limiting the resources
and support they can deliver to customers or Service Providers.
Simple exit strategy
No vendor lock-in*
Protect your investment in backup. Retain your backup files and recovery capabilities
even if you stop your subscription. Veeam’s universal format makes it easy to switch
providers and not lose data.

Backup vendor lock-in
Lock yourself into paying until you no longer need your backups.
BaaS vendors rarely allow customers to migrate backups off their cloud or restore data
with a free license. The rare BaaS vendors who do it typically charge extra fees per TB
of migrated data.
