Ransomware attacks have been contained and healthcare data remains accessible 24x7
When I used Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup, I liked it. I really did. I cannot think of anything off the top of my head that says this needs to be improved. If we are going to compete with Commvault or Cohesity, some improvements could be made. However, overall, for what we used it for within the healthcare industry, I think it is fine, especially with the ransomware resilience. You have the isolated recovery environment and zero trust backup architecture. These things really are critical for industries in healthcare. Everything that I mentioned, Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup is for SaaS, so it covers all the bases. It is easily installed within five minutes or so. The cost is simple—you do not have any servers, storage, infrastructure, or maintenance, and it is strictly being used for what it is. Its compliance is competitive. Overall, I would say the cost is simple, you have Entra ID backups, deployment is quick, there is no infrastructure, ransomware protection is there, granular restore, and you have Azure region storage control. Where there is a problem is it does not have enterprise-level backup or multi-cloud workloads. It is best used for small and maybe mid-sized businesses, and I would say within healthcare in particular. It is for cloud-first companies, and only if you have M365 protection for MSPs, which is what NTT Data was. It works within that framework. However, for large enterprises, you do not want to look at it. I would recommend Rubrik or Commvault instead.

A reliable backup product which needs little management
For most technical users the setup and initial deployment are fairly straightforward and once deployed it 99% of the time looks after itself. Installation of the agents is similar to most other products in that it has an install wizard to guide you, the accompanying documentation is also very useful to assist wherever you are in the agent install and policy setup process. Normally our customers' IT team does the deployment of agents, however, this isn't a daunting task unless you are dealing with multiple servers to protect the product. On a server-by-server basis, the deployment doesn't take long. From the MSP side of things, the infrastructure sitting behind the scenes doesn't take too much to install, configure and maintain.

Pros

"The product is deployable anywhere. It is also scalable and reliable."

"Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup really helped considerably with getting healthcare storage and backups back up quickly."
"Overall, it's a good product, and I've been happy with its capabilities."
"The Granular Restore of SQL feature has been a lifesaver more times than I can count. One of the main reasons for looking at Carbonite was their support for platforms like AIX and AS/400 Series."
"The efficiency and convenience are excellent."
"I find the BMR/image and the recovery pieces are valuable."
"This solution is very simple to use and I will recommend it to anybody."
"It does not slow down your computer or use a lot of resources as it works."
"It seems reliable and easy to use."
"Technical support handled all our issues quickly and effectively."
"The solution is very stable."
 

Cons

"Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup can be improved by addressing that when performing a restore, the search filter and the mailbox filter can be confusing, depending on what you want to achieve."
"What would be great should be either a guaranteed restore or a guaranteed restoring speed."
"Locating and recovering files can be confusing."
"We needed assistance with the implementation of the solution from the vendor. The process could be easier."
"Navigating through folders and finding files can be a bit slow, taking up to three to five seconds between clicks, which feels slow compared to the speed in SharePoint or a browser."
"I think new IT workers will struggle to recover data from Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup due to the user interface."
"The reason I would not rate it higher is that response times for complex cases and the escalation process sometimes can be improved."
"The tool does not support Google Support. I have only Microsoft 365 customers. I don't have a good solution for my G-suite customers."
"The support for object storage isn't quite there yet; its public cloud support can be improved."
"I would like to see an improvement on the management user interface, as well as Kellion integrations."
"The stability has room for improvement."
"The support for object storage isn't quite there yet. Its public cloud support can be improved. I would love to see the public cloud support for object storage, and it would be great, but what I always hear from the folks at Carbonite is that in a lot of cases, it directly competes with their cloud offering. So, I don't know when or where that will go or if that will go anywhere, but we are hopeful to see something. The dashboard is a little outdated. If they gave it a facelift and put some better design around their dashboard, that would be tremendous. I generally care less about the visual aesthetics of an application as long as it does what it needed to do, which is true in the case of this solution. We also have the Microsoft 365 platform. Because they're two separate platforms, I have to log in to my Microsoft platform to manage it, and I have to log into my Carbonite server backup platform to manage it. Having these two coexist together in one management console is really what we're looking for, but we went for it knowing this. We also knew that there would be some integration coming down the road. So, we're again hoping to see some of that coming in 2021."
"They do not yet have USB recovery but they are adding it in coming releases."
"It could be a little bit easier or faster to be able to access data files without having to download anything."
"In the next release I would like to see an improvement in the auto failover option."
"The Hyper-V backup has room for improvement."
