Barracuda Email Protection Reviews

Threat protection, spam filtering, and cloud backup solutions are essential for me.

The most helpful aspect for me is the out-of-the-box configuration, which is fairly good. It allows me to build my own custom rules and assists with DMARC, focusing on email security and domain reputation. 

Additionally, it has stopped people from frequently asking me about blocked emails, allowing them to release emails from quarantine themselves. This feature saves me time by preventing external threats effectively.

We use the solution to filter inbound emails for spam emails.

We check the reports sometimes to see that frequent attacks and malicious emails are being blocked by the solution.

Barracuda Email Protection is good for customers who don't have resources to manage email security. It is automated and easy to use. You just need to configure it, turn it on, and it works automatically. It's suitable for customers with up to a thousand users and does not require extensive customization.

The beauty of Barracuda Email Protection is that it is easy to manage and simple to deploy. While there is a lack of flexibility in terms of creating policies, this feature is beneficial for small customers who would prefer not to make multiple changes. 

It is also known for providing excellent support, scoring ten out of ten in that aspect. However, Barracuda faces challenges with weak reporting and integration issues, particularly with their security awareness training platform.

We use Barracuda primarily as an email gateway. It also integrates with the Microsoft 365 platform.

It provides anti-spam protection and all the various anti-spam aspects of email management. We generally use it with products other than Microsoft, so we're very happy to have Barracuda available.

We have a good experience with it. We consider Barracuda very efficient and easier to manage than other products, especially Microsoft products.

The solution is useful for archiving. We archive emails and search our mailboxes.

The archiving and search features are very good. It is easy to integrate Barracuda with tools like Exchange.

Barracuda Email Protection is used for email protection and forensics.

The best feature of Barracuda Email Protection is that it provides protection for Microsoft 365. Barracuda Email Protection is totally integrated with Microsoft and provides protection for email, OneDrive, and SharePoint.

As a system integrator, our focus lies in delivering system integration as a service. Our approach is customer-centric, tailoring solutions based on individual client relationships. Suppose a scenario where a customer was using Office 365 and noticed a lack of attachment security in their inboxes due to missing Office 365 E or E5 licenses. This resulted in an influx of spam emails, recognizing the significant threat posed by email-based attacks. In response, we conducted an assessment and recommended Barracuda Total Email Protection. We seamlessly redirected Office 365 traffic to the existing Barracuda solution, effectively addressing the attachment security concerns.

It stands out as a leading vendor in the market. Its prowess extends beyond mere email attachment protection to include file classification, identification of malicious URLs, and cloud-based isolation for enhanced security.

The primary use is to back up our Office 365. It also comes with email security and the Message Archiver. Our Office 365 backup is probably the most important piece and the Message Archiver is the second most important piece. It archives every email that comes in, it's not a backup type of an archive. You can use it for a backup, but it doesn't put it in folders, it's not for restoring someone's mailbox. It's just for searching for emails in case there's some type of litigation that requires us to retrieve someone's email messages.

We now have a secondary backup of Office 365 that's much easier to retrieve compared to Microsoft. If someone deletes something in Office 365, we can get it back within Office 365, but it's difficult. Barracuda is much easier. There is a lot less management needed using Barracuda. The management becomes much easier for Office 365 and it's no longer on-prem, so there are fewer hours managing on-prem devices, servers, and things of that nature. We don't have network appliances anymore for the backup of our information.
