Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Of all the backup products we have used, this by far is the simplest to install and use.""It is very stable, and I'm very happy with this solution.""We perform backup drills to test the functionality, and we don't have any problems.""Its interface is intuitive, and it is easy to use when I am restoring files. Barracuda does a really excellent job at compression, which makes it very efficient. Eight years later, I am only halfway through to the capacity, which is very good.""The scalability of the product is fine.""I have found the product's LiveBoot feature to be most valuable.""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 important feature in Barracuda Backup is the ability to archive the backup of emails."

"You can back up the whole image.""The solution captures the system state, so when we restore the system, it will be restored to the state it was in at the time of the backup.""With Veritas System Recovery, we have the option to run an infinite number of full backups according to our requirements.""The installation was straightforward.""The tool helps automate system recovery. The solution is most useful in scenarios involving restoration to a different environment. For instance, when migrating from a physical server to a virtual one, the tool facilitates conversion.""Offers good recovery quickly.""It has a user-friendly interface.""The solution has helped reduce my company's cost by around 50 to 60 percent."

Cons
"The solution is pretty expensive. This is the usual customer complaint.""When we manage the box physically, we don't have as much control as we do when we manage from the cloud. The best management is from the cloud.""I would like to see the Live Boot feature extended to Hyper-V machines, in addition to VMware machines.""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.""It would be nice to have some reports generated on the usage, but it is not essential.""Setting up Barracuda Backup is straightforward.""Some features like CIFS are not supported that would help speed and flexibility."

"The product's integration capabilities are an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required.""The pricing could be cheaper.""Lacks the ability to protect the database snapshot.""Veritas System Recovery’s pricing and local support need some improvement.""Veritas System Recovery Manager offers some manager solutions, but there is room for improvement.""It needs an easier interface.""We faced issues with recovery and restoration.""The reliability is sometimes lacking."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It allows us a low cost backup solution for hardware-based, VMware, and Hyper-V systems all from a single platform."
  • "Low, fixed cost with great savings."
  • "You don't need to buy an extra license or agent. With one box, you have licenses for any amount of devices that you want to backed up for whatever is backed up."
  • "You have two options, which we have. We pay for it bi-monthly. Then, you can purchase the project hours and support annually."
  • "What I like best about Barracuda Backup is the licensing model."
  • "The price of the five-year contract was approximately three million Rupees ($42,000 USD)."
  • "The licensing is charged yearly. It's my understanding that the cost of the solution is somewhere around $7,000 every two years."
  • "All the storage is included in Barracuda, so you're just paying for the package. I think with Veeam, you pay for the package, and you pay for the storage."

  • "My company has to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. There is no need to pay any additional fees apart from the licensing costs attached to the solution."
