Storage Limit Usage

• Managed Backup user.
• Backup Destination assigned to a certain user

Company storage limits and domain storage limits are configured separately:

• Company storage limit. This storage limit is associated with a company and does not appears on the Storage limits page. The company storage limit has a higher priority than the user storage limit or the backup destination storage limit. If one of the users uses storage space that exceeds the company storage limit, all other users included in the company will not be able to create backups, even if their individual user storage limits have not been exceeded.
• Domain storage limit (Microsoft 365 /Google Workspace Backup). This storage limit is associated with a domain and does not appears on the Storage limits page. The domain storage limit can be assigned as a total limit for all services or you can limit the backup size for specified services. If the domain is assigned to a company with an applied storage limit, the company storage limit will be applied to the domain backup.
