No single product is best at all three, so here's what I'd name in order.\n\n**Start here (SaaS data - highest value for a remote team)**\n\n1. **Afi.ai** - Best default for backing up Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. Scored highest overall in recent M365 roundups, unlimited retention, up to 24 backups/day, and it's cheap per seat. If you only do one thing, do this.\n2. **Keepit** - Pick this over Afi if you need breadth beyond email/files: it covers Entra ID, Okta, Salesforce, Dynamics, Azure DevOps, GitHub, Zendesk. Identity backup matters more than people think - a botched Entra ID or Okta change locks out a whole remote workforce.\n3. **Backupify** or **Spanning** - Solid alternates, strongest on workload coverage and granular restores; worth a look if you're already in a Kaseya/Datto stack.\n\n**Laptops (the part remote teams always skip)**\n\n4. **Backblaze Business** - Simplest thing that works for 1-20 laptops: unlimited storage per ", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
