Featured Reviews

Johan Camp - PeerSpot reviewer
Reliable, easy to set up, and offers good pricing
In the future, we are looking for solutions combining both local and cloud backup from a single management platform that was initially not yet available. There were two different platforms at Barracuda. What would be great should be either a guaranteed restore or a guaranteed restoring speed. It's difficult as they rely on Azure too. However, that would be convenient from a user perspective.
Daniel Ogola - PeerSpot reviewer
The appliance is ready to integrate with the cloud in cases where the customers have a hybrid or cloud environment.
The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Overall, I would rate Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup a nine out of ten."
"The most valuable feature of Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup is it's synchronized well with Microsoft 365. Additionally, the solution is able to identify through Microsoft Defender if there are viruses and will provide a notification."
"The product is deployable anywhere. It is also scalable and reliable."
"The most valuable feature is the AI with threat detection that can detect ransomware and restore it."
"The product's most valuable feature is the backup retention policy."
"The product enables us to restore lost files."
"The initial setup is pretty simple."
"The solution is stable; I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches on it."
"I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope."
"It's a good solution. It's pretty stable."
"The duplication is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature is that it is simple to use."
"he most valuable feature is that it's not so intrusive with computer resources."
"The automated recovery feature of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection makes the recovery much easier, as opposed to earlier methods where we were using scripts to do the restore."
"The solution's hardware appliance is very scalable and very useful."
 

Cons

"We needed assistance with the implementation of the solution from the vendor. The process could be easier."
"Locating and recovering files can be confusing."
"What would be great should be either a guaranteed restore or a guaranteed restoring speed."
"The solution may be improved by allowing integration with other platforms."
"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."
"They should adapt to new parameters as the market grows."
"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 implementation could be improved. The server setup is very easy, but some specific client implementation, for example, Oracle or SQL servers, are a little bit complicated. they should offer a bit more assistance with the setup for these particular items."
"The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with."
"The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement."
"The tool can be improved in terms of maintainability and flexibility, especially as companies grow larger. In these aspects, I feel Veeam is better for cloud and operational purposes."
"Licensing has been a struggle. It went from bronze, silver to gold. Licensing needs more sophistication. It has features that are sold as separate add-ons."
"The usability of the solution isn't the best."
"In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines."
"When you finish a project, the client should have the opportunity to browse the files rather than simply ending the contract. Also, it's not possible to recover earlier versions. It should be possible to have a database for recovering files after you finish a contract. There's no solution for this from Veritas."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is a cost-effective solution."
"The product's pricing is based on the customer's needs because every customer is different."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"The product's pricing is fair and competitive."
"The price is reasonable compared to other products."
"The tool is expensive compared to Veeam."
"I would rate this solution's pricing as five out of five."
"SaaS Backup isn't the most expensive solution."
"This solution is not cheap and not expensive but priced in the mid-range."
"The program is quite expensive."
