We performed a comparison between Barracuda Intronis Backup and NAKIVO Backup & Replication based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Deduplication Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"It is very reliable, so we don't have any issues with it. Our customers have never raised any issue with it. Basically, once you set it up and it is running, it is trouble-free. Our customers are happy. They just got a renewal for the subscription for the service."
"Barracuda's support is probably one of the best things about them, even with all their solutions. With any problem that we have, or even questions, we get the assistance that we need. The turnaround is pretty quick."
"It is very stable, and I'm very happy with this solution."
"The most important feature in Barracuda Backup is the ability to archive the backup of emails."
"The backup feature is most valuable. That's why we took it."
"Whenever you have a crash or your service is not working, you can just live-boot the machine and have your service up and running."
"The most valuable feature is unlimited data storage on the cloud. Even if the employee has left the company for a few years, the backup will still be maintained."
"The main feature we like about Barracuda is that we can map devices directly to the cloud. It operates as a security device to run a backup of the cloud in case one of our physical machines goes down."
"Every new version has got some tweaks and improvements in stability and speed."
"Backup jobs are running smoothly every day with job reports sent to email after they finish each job. That gives us peace of mind."
"The main advantage from our perspective is the ability to plug this solution into an existing infrastructure on a cheap device and point the backup at the server targets and configure the backup options in a simple menu; linking to a cheap cloud resource for a simple solution for off-site storage."
"The VM Backup Verification is one of the features I appreciate the most."
"This product has helped to centralize backups and made it easy to recover data."
"Cloud integration is valuable because the ability to not only backup locally, but to the cloud, has been a great addition to the already fantastic product."
"The virtual appliance for VMware vSphere is easy to deploy, easy to manage, and we have no need for additional Windows licenses."
"This is a user-friendly solution that has a lot of certifications and documentation for the Microsoft Hyper-V infrastructure."
"This solution could be improved with offering lower prices at scale."
"The tool is not user-friendly. The solution should also improve its compatibility. It is also not license-based."
"We cannot backup Sun Micro systems. They are not currently supported."
"The restore time can be improved. The restore time for large quantities of folders is slow. Sometimes, if I'm doing a full recovery of a server, it takes multiple hours, which probably is natural. It might also be because of our internet speed to the cloud."
"Their technical support is not very good. You never know what they are doing and what is the issue. Customers need to know what is happening. This is our main concern and the only thing that can be improved in this solution. I would like to have more visibility about what is going on when something happens. I need to know what was done to solve the issue."
"Compared to Avamar and Data Domain (our other systems), the backup speed is slow."
"It is not always stable."
"Barracuda Backup could use some more integration."
"One of the things I liked least about this software is when an update was pushed to one of the servers we had, somehow we didn't receive the update and needed some quick troubleshooting."
"There are many features we have not had the opportunity to try, such as Tape Backups, Office 365 backups, and many other things."
"We'd like to see a legacy environment backup, like AIX, etc."
"The process for getting unused diskspace back from the data repository is slow."
"There is a lack of native (web-based) update functionality."
"Personally, I would like to have the ability to backup older legacy systems on the new versions as well."
"It would be interesting if it were possible to integrate a mobile app to monitor the system in real-time."
"Integrations maybe helpful for NAKIVO. I think end-to-end backup and user backup will be useful to have. The price could be reduced as well. I also think that AD integration should be more available."
