O365 & Spam filter
-
We are finally making the move to O365 but one thing I cannot find in the info is if they provide spam filtering or if I would still need it.
Can anyone that has O365 or has set it up confirm either way?

Office 365 has Spam Filtering embedded in it.

I thought I read it somewhere. Thanks.
What about backups? I thought I read somewhere that O365 doesn't do backups. So if an end user deletes an email or accidentally deletes/moves a folder there is no way to retrieve that.

That is an exchange thing, it is built in. That is no different in O365

Right now, we have Exchange 2016 and if the above happens I have to use our Veeam backup to retrieve those items lost/deleted. Are you saying that is still the same or are you saying that Exchange Online has this option built in?

Well I would say you are doing it wrong now.
Exchange has a built in recover deleted items functionality. You don’t lose that moving to O365.

Excellent. Not surprised I was doing it wrong
Makes the sell for moving to O365 that much easier.
I mean we're already sold but I don't have to tell the powers that be that we need another backup solution.

Right click on the deleted box. You will see a recover deleted items choice.

Although the backups are for Microsoft themselves see this
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/servicedescriptions/exchange-online-service-description/high-availability-and-business-continuityhttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/back-up-email
Same as what @JaredBusch said on a user level or even an admin.
