Choose Keepit if

Mid-size and large organizations, especially in regulated European sectors, that need independent, immutable backup of many SaaS apps and their identity layer.

  • Backups live outside Microsoft, Google and Salesforce infrastructure
  • Identity layer coverage, not just files and mail
  • Wide range of protected SaaS apps under one console

Look elsewhere if: Small businesses wanting cheap, self-serve Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace backup with public prices (Spanning, Afi).

Choose Veeam if

IT teams protecting a mix of virtual, physical, cloud and Microsoft 365 workloads that need fast, ransomware-resilient recovery.

  • Broadest workload coverage across virtual, physical and cloud
  • Portable per-workload Universal License moves between platforms
  • Free Community Edition is useful for labs and small sites

Look elsewhere if: Very small teams that want zero-infrastructure, set-and-forget SaaS backup (Druva, Backblaze, Keepit).
