The solution's graphical user interface (GUI) could be improved visually. The solution should enable users to view more details in the dashboard.

The solution's reporting mechanism is a little poor and could be improved. There is no reporting mechanism with regard to the incidents and the root cause analysis. The solution should provide full details about any incident that happens.

The solution can be improved in terms of performance including web content filtering, and network configuration for better protection and enhanced functionality on mobile devices, including Android and iOS.

Barracuda Email Protection currently only works with Microsoft 365. It would be cool to see a more inclusive vendor approach where they should include Google Suite and other vendors like Amazon, for example. You also need complete admin access within your Microsoft 365 account to deploy Barracuda completely, so when you deploy the solution for a customer, it could be hard to transfer those rights from being an end user to a reseller. That's something they could improve.

In terms of improvement, the main issue is the price increase every quarter, which makes it expensive and less favored. That's why people are looking for a new product. In future releases, there are many things to add because they have a fixed policy to send out emails. Moreover, there is less visibility on the algorithm. The policies are set up in Barracuda by default; we don't have any control over them. If there is a more flexible policy available, it would be more helpful. And the event tracking, delivery reports, and customized reporting. Those are not that good enough.

Sometimes it is somewhat laggy, especially on the Archiver side. It should have improved performance on their Message Archiver.

The email encryption could be improved. I would like to see some additional functionality in terms of employee monitoring, as part of a work-from-home security solution. It would make the protection and capability more comprehensive.

Email Archiving
What is email archiving? Email archiving is the process by which the data contained within emails is saved and protected in order to enable fast retrieval when necessary. When an email is archived, it is retained for indefinite periods, serving as a historical reference outside of backup cycles. Different from email backups, email archiving is not a copy of data, but rather is inactive data that is kept and stored. In addition, email data stored by email archiving software can be used to...
