Work with GoDaddy O365?

Does Veeam Backup for O365 work with GoDaddy's O365?

Hi Mark,

While VBO version 1.5 worked with GoDaddy's O365 hosting well, the current version 2.0 doesn't support such setups.

Mark,

In the meantime, Polina and I had a quick discussion over this. The problem (on our side) is that we are not fully aware of what GoDaddy actually offers and what the limitations are. We read that they limit certain administrative items which we most likely need to be able to do impersonation and reading of the tenant. Any change that you are aware of the differences between GoDaddy and MSFT O365? That would make us understand it better

Happy New Year!
Mike

I am not sure. Was looking into Veeam for O365 for a customer and they mentioned they had GoDaddy for their O365 hosting. Wanted to make sure it works since it is a 'watered down' O365 experience.....especially on the admin side.

That's where I am a bit afraid off. Most likely those customers don't have a true admin in MSFT O365 and then it probably won't work...
At this moment, we are short on time to do testing, but the easiest way for you or your customer to test is to download the community edition. Try to connect with an admin user (if they have access to it) and see if you can protect 10 users...

Has anyone had any luck configuring Veeam backup for office 365 version 3 with Godaddy's 365 offering? It seems that I can make version 1.5 authenticate but there doesn't appear to be a community version. I only have to back up 8 mailboxes and My client would like to keep costs down if possible. The errors I get while trying to configure the system are to do with Connecting to Microsoft graph with the error message( Accessing_ws_metadata_exchange failed) and Connect to powershell ( Accessing_ws_metadata_exchange _failed)

Hello!

Please include the support case ID for this issue, as requested when you click New Topic.

Unrelated: please note that Veeam EULA specifically restricts using Community Edition (CE) to provide any type of service to 3rd parties. You noted "your client" and clearly you're managing/troubleshooting their Office 365 backup with CE atm, which makes it the direct violation of Veeam EULA.

Thanks!

Hi Kent,

First, your topic was merged with the existing corresponding thread.
Second, VBO doesn't support working with 3rd party O365 providers, including GoDaddy.
