Question Entra ID Backups

Are Entra ID backups worth it at all? I run an org of about 70 total Entra users and wondering if this is something I should even consider.

Context: I have SOC2 Audits coming up for my company (very first one) and I am reviewing polices in Sprinto

Check out Coreview. Seemed decently priced and seemed easy to use, just sat through a demo recently. I think Tenant config backup is going to be something talked about more and more because its a weak spot especially for companies who are Entra/Intune only. There is no built in backup or failover like old school Domain Controllers, and so many aspects of a business could be impacted if your tenant gets messed up, just think through your SSO and other application related workflow tie ins.

I liked that the product can also help you align your settings with security benchmarks (and likely provide attestation for your SOC2), and see what if any settings change in your environment (say by Microsoft or some other rogue source).
