While SaaS applications like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace provide very limited backup functionality, their backup capabilities are primarily designed for short-term protection against user error or to support application availability. To put it simply, they do not provide backup for business continuity purposes. That means deleted data is stored for a limited period and restoring lost data can be a nightmare. However, they do provide native archiving solutions to help meet compliance and legal requirements.
