## Frequently Asked Questions

What is SaaS backup and recovery and what does it recover?

SaaSRecover provides dedicated backup and recovery to help customers close gaps left by native retention and the shared responsibility model. It creates separate backup copies and enables restore options beyond what SaaS providers typically include.

Why do I need dedicated SaaS backup?

SaaS providers are responsible for service availability, but customers remain responsible for protecting their own data. Dedicated SaaS backup helps support longer retention, isolated backup copies, granular recovery, and stronger recoverability after deletion, corruption, or attack.

Aren’t native SaaS tools enough?

Native tools often focus on short-term retention or basic replication rather than enterprise-grade recovery. Dedicated SaaS backup adds longer retention, broader recovery options, separate backup storage, and centralized management that can help reduce operational risk and admin overhead.

What SaaS applications can Commvault SaaSRecover protect?

Commvault SaaSRecover helps protect major SaaS applications including Microsoft 365, Salesforce, Google Workspace, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Microsoft Power Platform, Azure DevOps, GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and more.

How does Commvault SaaSRecover help with ransomware recovery?

Commvault SaaSRecover helps by maintaining separate backup copies, supporting immutable and isolated protection approaches, and enabling rapid granular recovery. These capabilities can help reduce reinfection risk and improve recovery readiness when production SaaS data is deleted, corrupted, or attacked.
