Microsoft Recommends Third-Party Backup
“Deleted items are retained in recycle bins for a certain period of time. For SharePoint Online, the retention time is 93 days. It begins when you delete the item from its original location. When you delete the item from the site recycle bin, it goes into the site collection recycle bin. It stays there for the remainder of the 93 days, and then is permanently deleted.“

Top IT Analysts Advise Third-Party Backup
Gartner:
"Assuming SaaS Applications Don’t
Require Backup Is Dangerous"
-
Organizations that assume SaaS applications don’t require backup,
or that the SaaS vendor’s data protection Is good enough, may
place critical data at risk. -
Organizations cannot assume that SaaS providers will offer
backup as part of the service or provide interfaces that backup
vendors can use to access data.

Forrester:
"Back Up Your SaaS Data — Because
Most SaaS Providers Don't"
-
While almost all SaaS vendors explicitly state that protecting data is
the customer's responsibility, infrastructure and operations (I&O)
leaders usually send critical data to those providers without any plan
for ensuring data resiliency. - Back up SaaS data or risk losing customers, partners, and employees.
-
Stop leaving the door open to data loss, and start proactively protecting
cloud data before it's too late.

SaaS Data Loss Happens. Frequently.
Native Workarounds are Timebound and Cumbersome
Compared to SaaS cloud-to-cloud data backup for business critical solutions such as SharePoint - Native Solutions are incomplete.
- Native solutions like Litigation Hold and Recycle Bins are timebound. Once the time limit is up your data is permanently deleted.
- Native solutions are archival in nature and not built for data recovery. This means that restore is tedious and destructive (changes are overwritten) without unlimited point-in-time, or cross-user recovery.
