# SaaS Backup and Recovery Functionality

## Bacula – High Efficiency, Super Low Cost SaaS Data Protection

- A unified management platform that allows for API access, audit reporting, as well as many different administrative tasks;
- Throttling reduction measures for faster M365 backups by using multiple accounts;
