The Challenge
Microsoft’s job is to keep the platform running. Your data is your responsibility.
Accidental deletion, malicious insider activity, ransomware and retention gaps all sit outside Microsoft’s remit. Independent backup closes that gap completely.
Why it matters
- Accidents stop being expensive. A user who deletes the wrong folder is a five-minute conversation, not a project. Recovery is quick, surgical and complete.
- Ransomware loses its grip. If endpoints or cloud data are encrypted, an independent backup means you have a clean point to recover to. Negotiation is off the table.
- Departing staff don’t take your data with them. Mailboxes, files and Teams content are retained and recoverable long after a leaver’s licence is reclaimed.
- Compliance retention is satisfied. Your obligations on retention and recoverability are met with evidence, not assumption.
- Confidence is something we can demonstrate. Recovery tests are run, results are reported and the recoverability of your business is something we have already proven this quarter.

How we’re different
Most providers rely on Microsoft to be your backup. Microsoft doesn’t agree.
cimply runs your Microsoft 365 backup as an independent service with independent storage, tested recoveries and clear ownership. The data belongs to you, the responsibility for it belongs to us.
Switching is simpler than staying stuck.
The transition you’ve been putting off takes less than you think and costs far less than staying where you are.
We listen first
One conversation. No obligations, no sales pitch. We learn how your business runs and where the friction is hiding.
We map your environment
Our team conducts a full assessment of your current systems quietly, without disrupting your day.
We handle the transition
We move at your pace, not ours. Every migration is planned, tested, and communicated before anything changes.
You get on with it
From day one, you have a team that knows your name and your systems. Support that's proactive, not reactive.

Microsoft protects the platform and offers limited retention for accidental deletion. It does not provide the long-term, granular, recoverable backup that ransomware, compliance and departing-staff scenarios require.
