Considered Both Products	Barracuda Networks Inc. Kael Hankins Asst. Tech Director in Information Technology at Clear Creek Amana Community School District (Primary/Secondary Education, 201-500 employees) Chose Barracuda CloudGen Firewall Our only other vendor in this space is really in a different class, making it difficult to compare them directly head to head. Certainly, Barracuda is more fully-featured and FAR more flexible. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Barracuda CloudGen Firewall None Incentivized Helpful? Jay Glatt Vice President of IT in Information Technology at Giumarra (Food & Beverages, 201-500 employees) Chose Barracuda CloudGen Firewall Our Cisco firewall was always difficult to make any changes against. It had no user-friendly GUI interface. We were calling technical support most of the time whenever we needed to make any changes. The Barracuda CloudGen Firewall has a GUI interface which we are looking … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Barracuda CloudGen Firewall We already use Smoothwall for our main web filtering and felt it would be more robust to have a failover service in case of hardware failure. Pricewise the 2 were comparable and both would have been an upgrade on the no longer supported Microsoft Threat Management gateway. We … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Barracuda CloudGen Firewall We replaced the Juniper to gain throughput & flexibility - but the Barracuda is easier to manage as well. Incentivized Helpful? Paul Metzger Senior Network Engineer in Information Technology at Pine Belt Mental Health (Hospital & Health Care, 501-1000 employees) Chose Barracuda CloudGen Firewall There really is no comparison. Juniper and Sonicwall are the closest competitors, however, in terms of features versus price Barracuda wins every time. Cisco does not allow the ASA to do certain things it should be allowed to do, it is design flaws but they have no intention of … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Barracuda CloudGen Firewall We used a much alder Cisco ASA router that was chocking our bandwidth and it couldn’t really be compared. It was clunky and horrible at best. Our WatchGuard was overly complicated and difficult to manage and required a version matching thick client installed locally to manage … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Barracuda CloudGen Firewall What sold us on Barracuda was the ease of use, the price based on number of features, and their excellent support. We cannot say enough good about the support Barracuda provides. Incentivized Helpful? Derek Schroeder Service Manager in Information Technology at Accellis Technology Group (Information Technology and Services, 11-50 employees) Chose Barracuda CloudGen Firewall Barracuda, much like the others, has a lot to learn in order to master for quick deployment and management. The biggest separation is the level of customization that is possible. Barracuda support definitely goes above and beyond over the competitors. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Barracuda CloudGen Firewall We have used SonicWALL and WatchGuard appliances in the past. Barracuda is not only more feature rich, but less expensive. Barracuda's partner program is also second to none. We lost a lot of confidence with SonicWALL as ownership changing hands multiple times in the last few … Incentivized Helpful?
