Featured Reviews

GANESAN K - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Technical Engineer at Safezone Secure Solutions Private Limited
Rating shows fast restoration and reliable support with scope for improved integration and database backup options
The product needs improvement to become better. For example, we attempted to integrate with Postgres SQL server to backup the database alone, which was not supported. For this reason, we required a separate solution for database backups. While other SQL servers are supported, Barracuda Backup has limitations with database backups. The main area for improvement is integration and support for databases.
Ingvar  Ingason - PeerSpot reviewer
Channel Sales Manager at Arrow Electronics
An affordable product that offers a reasonably good technical support
I rate the product's initial setup phase an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup phase, and ten is an easy setup phase. The product's installation phase took me around two weeks. On average, it usually takes about a week or two to deploy when everything is in place. The solution is deployed on a hybrid cloud from Azure.

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Barracuda Backup is that it's on the cloud, so there is no need for hardware."
"Barracuda email security works effectively with O365, and we have been able to achieve many use cases that other competitive products such as Micro, Fortinet, Trellix, or Forcepoint could not accomplish."
"The solution’s scalability is good because its space is unlimited. We can start in Office365 with one terabyte bit of information and leverage through an enterprise solution of 1000 users."
"Barracuda Backup is cost-effective because there is no licensing cost per server or VM."
"One valuable feature of Barracuda Backup is that it can be used as thin VMware storage."
"The solution has been stable for us."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"We use this solution as an integrated backup solution and it is integrated from the backup provider to the Nutanix solution."
"Nutanix can converge legacy-style rack mount servers, so it is highly scalable."
"I like the autofill-over feature and the simplicity of the solution."
"Nutanix has its own backup system known as HYCU, as well as its own virtual server."
"We find the ease of use valuable."
 

Cons

"In using Barracuda Backup, sometimes the VM has issues and becomes non-functional, requiring support tickets to resolve."
"Barracuda Backup's support could be improved because sometimes the support team is situated outside the country, leading to time zone issues."
"It would be nice if a user could delete something and then recover it themselves. That would be a nice feature."
"Barracuda Backup's user interface needs to be renewed as it appears outdated."
"The product needs improvement to become better. For example, we attempted to integrate with Postgres SQL server to backup the database alone, which was not supported."
"An improvement is required in reports and backups for sharing on Linux and Unix."
"I would like to see the multi-cloud improve."
"This solution could be improved with regards to the hosts that integrate with the platform itself. Each of the hosts integrated with the storage and networking only provide one instance of a backup."
"Nutanix is not secure enough, and it needs to be more resilient."
"It could be cheaper."
"The solution's setup process should be simplified."
"The price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
