Case Study: Mears Group strengthens Microsoft 365 and Entra ID backup resilience with AvePoint Cloud Backup

Mears Group protects data for 450,000 UK homes with AvePoint

Mears Group, a leading UK provider of services to the affordable housing sector managing over 450,000 homes, faced a challenge in their digital transformation. They required a cost-effective and reliable cloud backup solution for their entire Microsoft 365 suite that could perform granular restores of individual items without adding operational complexity. They turned to AvePoint for its Multi-SaaS Cloud Backup service.

AvePoint implemented its Cloud Backup solution for Microsoft 365, which was later expanded to include Entra ID. The deployment provided Mears with comprehensive protection featuring unlimited storage, encryption, and air-gapped security. The intuitive platform enabled minimal onboarding effort and allowed for fast, granular recovery of files and emails. With AvePoint, Mears significantly strengthened its backup resiliency, security, and disaster recovery capabilities, providing a scalable foundation for future cloud initiatives.
