    Chose Barracuda Backup
    Each backup solution has its pros and cons, and each customer has their needs, and budget constraints. Barracuda Backup has helped us dramatically in the area of being able to provide customers a cost-effective solution, that's easy to manage and is one of those things you're …

    Chose Barracuda Backup
    We have used Datto as well as Symantec Backup Exec. Datto is 2X the cost of Barracuda for apples to apples specs. Also, we have not had good experiences with the Datto (pushy) sales people. Backup Exec is a local on-premise product, when if you get a crypto infection it can …

    Chose Barracuda Backup
    While many solutions, such as Acronis and Symantec Backup Exec rely on number of agents or database services, Barracuda and Datto rely on total data storage. Barracuda's key feature is the hardware refresh. After 4 years of maintaining subscriptions, customers are entitled to …

    Chose Datto SIRIS
    Datto and Barracuda Backup are very similar in design/purpose (both appliance-based with local backups and pushing to an offsite cloud), though Barracuda handles vCenter with a centralized backup console while Datto does not. VEEAM does a better job of backing up VMware than …

    Chose Datto SIRIS
    Datto seems much more reliable with better backup success rates. It is easy to use and cost-effective way to backup small data sets. Support is quite good and they have a very good Kbase.

    Chose Datto SIRIS
    Datto is a superior product in regards to spinning up servers on the BDR appliance hardware. That is their killer feature. Barracuda's edge is the hardware refresh after 4 years of maintaining subscriptions. Datto requires the purchase of a new appliance after a time period …

    Chose Datto SIRIS
    We also use Barracuda for our backup and disaster recovery solution at our clients. Datto is much more expensive than Barracuda, the solutions are very similar, but the one thing I would give Datto the edge on is handling of Hyper-V instances. Datto makes Hyper-V restorations …
