Switch Backup
Staff and students at Swiss universities increasingly rely on M365 services such as Exchange Online (Outlook®), SharePoint®, Teams and OneDrive®. But backing up the data stored in these services is the customer’s responsibility. Switch offers a simple solution for professional M365 backup and recovery, helping universities protect their data and restore it when needed.

M365 Expertise
Switch provides training, expert advice and optimisation services to help you get the most out of your M365 data backup.
Why back up your M365 data?
According to Microsoft’s shared responsibility model, customers are responsible for backing up their own Microsoft 365 data. Switch Backup M365 helps you take control of this responsibility with a reliable backup designed around your organisation’s needs.
Your data can be retained beyond M365 recycle bins and restored with granular, point-in-time recovery when needed. The backup also covers Teams settings, configurations and memberships, helping you recover more than just individual files. At the same time, it helps minimise risks from malicious intent and external attacks and supports the documentation of compliance with legal regulations and guidelines.
With Switch Backup M365, you stay in control of your data and are prepared when recovery matters.
