As organizations move more and more towards the cloud, the complexity surrounding AD recovery increases. It is important to understand how the built-in backup and recovery capabilities of Azure AD differ from those in an on-premise AD environment.
In addition, it is extremely valuable to know what functionality you need to properly protect the cloud or hybrid environments of your customers.
While Microsoft offers tools to help you recover some items, you should consider investing in third party software to have comprehensive recovery capabilities that ensure productivity and business continuity.

A complete backup and recovery of Active Directory (AD) is essential for any organization today. After all, no one is safe from data breaches or human error. If your customer moves to a cloud-based or hybrid environment, you cannot simply assume that Azure AD offers the same backup and recovery functions as on-premises AD.
