"The interface is very user-friendly and it is quite easy to use."
"Live monitoring of what is happening inside and on the interfaces, either ingress or egress."
"When you are sending information to an external email address, Barracuda can warn you when you are trying to access a private or personal email, or trying to upload information and not allow you to do that."
"Add-on features such as Virus Scanning, ATP, and web filtering add another level of protection and block malware before it gets to the end user."
"The antivirus protection or malware protection has been great."
"Good identity fire walling, malware protection and application control features."
"If you have multiple offices, all inter-connected via the internet, you want a single management console through which you can manage all you firewalls. In that case Barracuda could be a good option."
"The configuration syntax makes it easy for us to configure the device and perform troubleshooting when needed."
"When we started, the connection was amazing for the 100G between the switches and the co-switch. What the students typically use for school is a maximum is 40 so they now have faster technology."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The scalability is good."
"The product is easy to improve and deploy in terms of configuration for engineers and technical executives."
"Overall we have found the solution to be satisfactory."
"The solution provides support for 5G connectivity."
"The product is very reasonably priced."
"There is room for improvement in performance and the support language. The support they're providing right now is from a different country, and in our country, there are people—network admins and IT heads—who don't speak English properly. So Barracuda needs to provide support agents who speak additional languages, such as Bangla."
"Can be underpowered if you choose to use all available add-on features. Just be careful when sizing your unit. Make sure you take into account what features you will be turning on, and work with your sales rep to get the model that can handle that load."
"Technical support used to be at a very high level but it is now a bit less so."
"The usability for the administrator's experience needs improvement. My system administrator has some questions about its overall connectivity and flexibility."
"The price could be better."
"The administration UI could be better. It should also have better application detection policies."
"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."
"It would be better if they had a trace and trap feature. It's hard for me to say anything bad about Barracuda. This is because we had a firewall go down in the town of Kirkland Lake, and it was a blown-out port, and they had an instant replacement."
"The internet speed reduces throughout the day. The tool is not stable."
"There is not much of a technical team for Huawei available in Pakistan as compared to Cisco with respect to very complex networks."
"Syntax in the implementation process could be easier to understand for a new user or someone who doesn’t have prior experience using the product."
"It would be better if the vendor provided support for small enterprises."
"The solution's technical support could be improved."
"We have encountered issues while integrating the product with Enterprise Management Systems. Huawei platform is good for Huawei but we face issues when we integrate it with other models."
"It would be better if local storage management was more flexible, so that unused data could be easily removed."
"The internet service for enterprise bundle should be improved."
