"When you use this solution, you get a dual processor with all the necessary security and Microsoft updates supplied. You don't have to be concerned about the security aspect related to IoT because Microsoft takes care of this."
"Scalability is good; the company wants to be able to handle large customers."
"The ability to be deployed and supported remotely is valuable."
"We enjoy the reduction in terms of labor."
"Its ability to block incoming attacks is valuable. Its logging, traffic monitoring, and VPN capabilities are also valuable."
"Ability to manage multiple firewalls."
"It's great for handling complex items."
"We use Barracuda NG Firewall as a border firewall. We trough it to control all in/out Internet traffic."
"What I like best about this product are the support and the features."
"The type of edge devices being addressed through the suite was limited."
"One of the pain points of this solution is that the full Linux box is not exposed to all developers. This restricts what the applications can do as they cant be adjusted."
"If you have another brand of VPN where you have to put an SSL VPN between two devices, Barracuda doesn't support that at a certain point. You can't actually build the VPN between Barracuda and a different device of a different brand."
"When you do any commit, it locks your next access. If you are making a change to the device, from the security standpoint it's fine, but from the admin side it's not good. When you make changes, after each and every one it becomes locked."
"I would like to see a more user-friendly dashboard and an easier interface."
"The analytics are weak."
"It's a little bit complex in terms of handling. If you implement a change, there is a specific point where you have to commit it. It's not like you just push a button and it's always committed. If you don't know to check whether your commit command has been executed or not... that is something Barracuda needs to work on."
"The interface should be more user-friendly and it should be easier to configure."
"The biggest downside is that it is quite an expensive product."
"Barracuda CloudGen Firewall should work a little bit more with the logs so that, in our company, we can generate a little bit more reports and get a bit more statistics, which would be fine for us."
