Microsoft 365 Backup Singapore
Microsoft 365 backup is the line on the shared-responsibility sheet Microsoft leaves to you: it keeps the service up, you keep the data. Rezolva copies every mailbox, drive, site and channel nightly, holds it outside, and restores any item to any day.
The tenant line of our offsite backup family. Choosing plans? Start at Microsoft 365 licensing or business email; if the mail is already there, read on.
TAP A LINE — IT MOVES TO YOUR COLUMN
Microsoft 365 Backup — the responsibility sheet, line by line
Microsoft 365 backup starts with reading the sheet honestly: Microsoft keeps the service and the hardware; the data in your tenant is your line.
SWIPE THE BOUNDARY — MICROSOFT’S SIDE, THEN YOURS
Lines one and two are bolted down: uptime and hardware are Microsoft’s and always will be. The other six are tokens, and every one of them is drawn on Microsoft’s side until you hold a copy. Move a line in the sheet at the top of the page and its token crosses the boundary.
Admin · MonitorThe admin centre shows what Microsoft keeps; the Microsoft 365 backup service we run is the other column.
Office · CorridorLines one and two never move; the cloud backup Microsoft 365 tenants need is the other side.
OneDrive Backup — the file that was overwritten, not deleted
OneDrive backup is the line most offices think is already ticked: the deleted file comes back from the recycle bin; the overwritten file and the synced ransomware do not.
OneDrive backup is misunderstood because OneDrive already looks like one: cloud file, version history, recycle bin. All three are attached to the file, so an overwrite or a deleted account takes them too.
A OneDrive backup taken by Rezolva is a separate nightly object outside the tenant; Monday’s version survives Tuesday’s save.
- Overwritten, not deleted is the OneDrive backup request native tools answer worst.
- An encrypted file syncs like a good one; the night-before copy is clean.
OneDrive · FilesThe save that overwrites: the OneDrive backup question is whether Monday’s version exists on Friday.
Forecast sheet right; saved 17:40, synced everywhere.
A colleague pastes over the formulas; v13 is now the file.
Sync pushes v13 everywhere; v12 is history inside the file.
Finance asks for Monday’s; history helps only if the file still exists.
Our Monday copy holds v12 on its own; restored beside v13.
OneDrive · UserThe user who notices on Friday calls; a OneDrive backup with nightly versions answers.
- It counts versions, not days; a busy file rolls past its limit in a week.
- Files Restore rolls one drive back 30 days, never the library.
- Once the user is deleted the drive follows, 30 days by default.
Microsoft 365 Backup Service — what a nightly copy holds
A Microsoft 365 backup service is a list of workloads, not a licence tier: what we copy nightly, and the native window each row beats.
Exchange · MailboxRow one: the Microsoft 365 backup service copies mail, calendar and contacts together.
A Microsoft 365 backup service is judged by the smallest thing it can put back: one message, one file beside its current version, one site under a new name.
Entra ID, Planner and Forms are not in the nightly copy; the sheet says so rather than implying a Microsoft 365 backup service covers everything.
Teams · ChannelRow four is this channel; cloud backup Microsoft 365 offices rely on holds its chat and files.
Cloud Backup Microsoft 365 — the four ways a mailbox disappears
Cloud backup Microsoft 365 tenants need is sized by how mailboxes leave, not by storage in use; four ways account for nearly every request.
The leaver
The licence is removed to save the fee; the 30-day clock starts.
Day 31: the mailbox is gone, supplier threads with it.
Restored from last night’s copy to a shared mailbox, or exported, years later.
The admin clean-up
A project site is deleted in a tidy-up; nobody asks until day 94.
Both recycle bins have expired; the tenant cannot bring it back.
The site as it stood on any night, restored to a new name.
The sync
Ransomware on one laptop encrypts the synced folder; OneDrive uploads it all.
Files Restore rolls one drive back; the libraries are separate jobs.
One clean point in time; every drive and site restored in one job.
The legal question
An auditor asks for 2019 mail with one supplier; no hold was configured.
Retention covers only what existed after it was switched on.
The copy holds the mailbox as it stood every night since day one.
Leaver · Day 0The box leaves at 18:00, the licence at 18:05; the cloud backup Microsoft 365 leavers need ran at 02:00.
Leaver · DeskThe desk is cleared; no cloud backup Microsoft 365 offers natively reaches past the clock.
HR · File boxHR keeps the paper file for years; Microsoft 365 backup keeps the mailbox as long.

Microsoft 365 Backup — onboarding in three steps
Microsoft 365 backup onboarding is a consent screen, a first copy and a drill: nothing to install.
- 01
Connect the tenant
A global admin grants consent to the backup application once; Microsoft 365 backup starts the same day.
- 02
First full copy
The first run walks every mailbox, drive, site and channel: hours for a small tenant, days for a large one.
- 03
Restore drill, with you watching
You name a message, a file and a site; we restore each on a call, time it, and write it on the sheet.
Teams · MeetingStep three, on this call: three items named, restored, and the sheet signed.
Microsoft’s own Microsoft 365 Backup is an add-on billed per gigabyte stored per month, so the invoice moves with the data rather than with the headcount.
One person’s Exchange mailbox, OneDrive, SharePoint share and Teams, copied nightly, with thirty days of points to restore from.
A retention policy holds content in place for an auditor; holding is not restoring, and a hold will not put last March’s spreadsheet back on a desk.
Twelve months of restore points on the same seat, for the tenant whose auditor asks for a date instead of a document.
Nothing to size and nothing to agree: the native add-on starts at the first gigabyte, and the shortfall only shows up on the day of the request.
Below ten people the console work costs more than the seats do, so ten users is where a managed Microsoft 365 backup service starts.
A support ticket restores nothing. The admin centre gives you the windows Microsoft publishes, and the 94-day site is still gone.
Every restore we run is inside the seat price, whatever its size: no per-item fee, no per-restore fee, no call-out.
Cloud backup Microsoft 365 offices buy by the seat, because a mailbox is the unit an office can actually count and the gigabytes behind it are ours to size. The same seat rate sits on our Acronis Singapore and Google Workspace backup pages, because it is one seat sold through three doors, and Acronis Office 365 backup pricing is quoted the same way whichever door you came in.
