MSP360 Enhances Backup Solutions for Shared Mailboxes
In a strategic move, MSP360 has rolled out version 4.9 of its widely-used backup solution, aimed specifically at improving the backup process for unlicensed shared mailboxes in Microsoft 365. This innovative release aligns the backup licensing policy with Microsoft's licensing framework, leading to clearer and more predictable pricing, an essential aspect for businesses managing multiple accounts.
MSC360, known for delivering reliable backup and IT management solutions, has made significant strides by ensuring that shared mailboxes under 50 GB no longer necessitate separate backup licenses. This means users can maintain unlicensed shared mailboxes securely without incurring additional costs, provided they adhere to Microsoft's basic conditions.
Understanding the New Licensing Structure
New Release 4.9 has brought transparency in the backup licensing policy, making it easier for organizations to forecast their backup expenses. According to Oleg Sapon, VP of Product Management at MSP360, "By fully aligning shared mailbox licensing with Microsoft 365, we have made data protection costs far easier to predict." This shift promises to assist customers in minimizing expenses related to unnecessary licenses while protecting all shared mailboxes efficiently.
Streamlined Administrative Clarity
Version 4.9 also focuses on enhancing administrative features within the MSP360 backup console. The new release makes identifying shared mailboxes more straightforward, facilitating faster understanding for IT teams and Managed Service Providers (MSPs). This improvement aids in pinpointing which mailboxes may affect licensing and aids in effective management during critical periods like audits and renewals.
