I don't think I said we weren't making backups. We have two pieces in place: 1. We are a Microsoft 365 shop, so OneDrive stores versions of files and all that.

I don't think I said we weren't making backups. We have two pieces in place: 1. We are a Microsoft 365 shop, so OneDrive stores versions of files and all that. Admittedly this is not a "backup" necessarily, but it does serve a portion of the purpose of backups and are far more easily accessible to users themselves. 2. We also have a backup service running on every company issued laptop that backs up to a backup service. What I am not advocating is that a small team should setup their own cloud for the purpose of backups. That's a lot of work and maintenance. I am an IT team of 1. My time is better spent on actually getting work done, not playing around with self hosting stuff and maintaining that. Backups are important, otherwise I wouldn't be spending thousands of dollars on it in my tiny little budget each year. But I disagree pretty strongly with the priority of _how_ to do backups.
