EvoSafe: Microsoft 365 Backup That Microsoft Does Not Provide
Microsoft 365 is not a backup. Microsoft's shared responsibility model makes it clear that protecting your data is your responsibility. Accidental deletions, ransomware, malicious insiders, and sync errors can all cause permanent data loss that Microsoft's built in retention policies cannot recover from.
EvoSafe is Evocate's fully managed backup and recovery service for Australian organisations. We protect every layer of your Microsoft 365 environment from email and files to Teams conversations, Dynamics 365 records, and endpoint devices with daily automated backups stored exclusively in Australian data centres.
Evocate manages the entire service so your IT team does not have to. We handle configuration, monitoring, alerting, backup verification, and recovery support. When you need data restored, our team recovers individual items or entire workloads in minutes, not days. Call 1300 386 228 to discuss your backup requirements.
