Thank you all for the great questions! I'm going to try to reply to all of the comments posted so far here:

  1. esjimenezp target public preview release date is Q4 of 2023, and GA in Q1 of 2024.
  2. Ru we are developing various protections such as multi-admin approval workflows for any detrimental changes to the backups, audit logs, notification emails to email lists, and grace periods to undo any destructive actions. We're also open to feedback as we develop our ongoing feature roadmap.
  3. Jessie_Hernandez pricing will be announced at public preview. I agree, this does provide good piece of mind for full tenant restores.
  4. johnjohnyrestrepo this isn't quite the right tool for tenant-to-tenant migration. We do have other powerful tooling for that and for M&A scenarios, but this isn't quite that tool.
  5. cangot we'll have more details on search experiences and capabilities soon. Admin level search is definitely included, whereas end-user search we're still collecting feedback on the right experiences. This iteration of the product through early next calendar year, we'll support only site-level archiving and reactivation, but file-level archiving is coming later in 2024.
