Chose Barracuda Backup
Barracuda Backup is far more simple and easy to manage, we selected this over competitors because it gave a simple set and forget backup for cloud to cloud with unlimited retention. It also gave a very simple to use interface for monitoring backups of required. Pricing and …
Overall not impressed with Barracuda backup and we decided to move away from it. I wasn't involved in the selection but the organization has had it for years when the market was very different.
Barracuda Backup offers a full cloud to cloud offering and when we were implementing and building, Veeam did not have a full cloud to cloud offering, but rather a cloud to on prem, which we were concerned with the bandwidth usage and additional need to monitor as well as …
We actually ran both of these systems at once to provide end to end coverage. This worked extremely well for our internal email systems and provided great protection for our end users and great backups of all messages to and from the corporation. The combination of these two …
I [have] used a number of solutions in the past and in all cases I replaced what I used with the Barracuda solution. It was a simple and fast solution to deploy and easy to get staff up to speed on using the product. Support was top notch when deployment time came, they …
All solutions have their positive, neutral, and negative points. Veritas Backup Exec is excellent too. But it is more expensive and does not offer a management interface as friendly as Barracuda Backup is. We also have brand reliability because other company employees have also …
Barracuda Backup compared very favorably to Veeam Backup & Replication because it has all of the most necessary features you would expect in a backup solution, but can be deployed much faster and is easier to manage. The Linux based appliance reduces the need for using a …
All mentioned venders above did not give me the one-stop-shop approach to backup that I was looking for. Also, global deduplication and compression was a huge saving on local space. Most venders also charge per VM or per application being backed up, and this is cost-prohibitive …
The time necessary to manage Barracuda Backups is leaps and bounds superior to Backup Exec. Backup Exec has tons of great features but required constant maintenance. In the end we just wanted the ability to easily schedule, set retention periods and the ability to backup and …
Barracuda was a much more cost effective solution than the others we evaluated. Its interface was light years ahead of Avamar, and its cost was much lower than Unitrends. Avamar had it beat in backup time, and Unitrends was a more mature product. In the end, Barracuda won out …
We used to use a product that Symantec offered. The problem was that it was not able to connect to Mac machines to back up data. This was a big issue, since we have Executives and marketing employees that use Macs. We also tested Druva inSync. It offered a lot of features that …
Barracuda has been one of those must have tools for our IT shop. Quick, easy to use as well as safe and secure are a few ways to describe this product. Email archiving is made to keep your end users happy knowing that they have all of their past emails at their fingertips.
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 …
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 …
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 …
Barracuda is MUCH easier to set up and use then Unitrends. Unitrends does not offer direct download of backed up files from their cloud, while Barracuda does. Unitrends uses a non-standard and difficult to use implementation of retention/archiving. Unitrends' backup to Amazon …
I'm much happier with how Barracuda lays out their console and user interface. Acronis is a great product and you do get what you expect. But to have a the learning curve personally cut by at least 50% is a great thing to have when it comes to training new members to the IT …
For cloud only solutions, this may be great for small businesses or individuals, but the ability to have onsite as well as offsite backups makes recovery faster and more diverse to ensure all areas of data can be recovered quickly.
Barracuda has a rock solid reputation in the business, and sells quality products that any company should stand behind. I've not used any other product that has the level of quality that Barracuda does.
Whenever we review other solutions, MSP360 always ends up on top. No special hardware needed, integrates with all of the NAS and closed storage providers, great support and price
We have looked into other backup providers, but it has all come down to value for the dollar. While some providers are more polished or have better name brand recognition, MSP360 has all the core components and is just as strong of a platform for considerably fewer investment …
By far the best and easiest solution for easy cloud backups. We bought the license and had it installed and running within about 10 minutes. Easy to restore data with very little trouble. Allows storage straight to Glacier for quick cheap storage. We have since recommended …
The MSP360 web management portal is unbeatable. It makes management and fault correction much easier. Unfortunately, Veeam does not have this without setting up a specific server for this purpose.
Unitrends has an easier management console. You can generate all kinds of reports. CloudBerry is easy to set up, but Unitrends is even easier. You don't have to wait for an installer with Unitrends if you decide to build a custom installer. It's just there to download. You can …
CloudBerry has a low cost but has the ability to attach to just about all the popular storage destinations. It is feature-rich and we've not got into a situation where the software has let us down.
They offer more OS support than anyone else. The only sad thing is that CloudBerry dropped their ransomware protection that was built in and no longer offers native ransomware protection.
I use Veeam, Nakivo and CloudBerry across the networks I manage. All three work well for their needs. Veeam is great for larger virtual environments. Nakivo is also good in those situations and because it's less expensive; it works well in smaller virtual environments. …
Mozy Pro is/was a decent product for self-service backup, but our typical client is not tech savvy enough to handle fixing the common errors (permissions, encrypted files etc> ) that cause failures. They do not monitor the backups on a regular basis, and they have no idea how …
If you are a small business with a few machines and your backups aren't of servers that are public facing. If you had to restore a server from backup, it would take a day at least. So, if the server being restored was public facing, that may impact customer relations.
MSP360 provides the most flexibility when it comes to backup solutions. there have been no cases where it could not be used for our manages services clients. It has saved our clients many times over the years and we do not use another backup solution for any of our clients. There are a lot of solutions out there but MSP360 is priced right and serves the needs of all of our Managed Services clients.
The cloud control is great!! I'm able to restore files and folders from basically any machine on the Internet. I can restore either the local machine I'm using at the time, or directly to the server from which it came.
The user interface. Very easy to use and understand. Loads of options and configurations you can optimize for your particular needs.
Instance replacement. We have had an issue with one unit due to some hardware failure. Barracuda was amazing on getting this replaced quickly and getting us back on track.
You can't define backup systems to just go to the cloud, it has to be stored locally as well, which eats up the local storage.
These appliances are high-priced for a small amount of storage and if you want to upgrade, you buy a new appliance. There's no replacing hard drives, you basically move up $5K for each 2Tb and replace the entire appliance each time. It's not a healthy model for growth.
Should add a general interface to manage all accounts, not a specific interface for every account.
The new backup formats enhancements should be available for all cloud storage companies. More focus with Wasabi would be great because of their focus on storage and low prices.
I love Cloudberry. I am using it at three different sites to backup their mission critical file servers and it works great. It is a very cost effective backup solution that is easy to setup and use and the support is also very good. I would recommend it to anyone that needs a good backup solution for their business.
Dashboards and interfaces within Barracuda Backup are very easy to navigate, with clear success/warnings shown. Setting up backup jobs is probably one of the most simplest tasks - compared to competitors we trialed. Trouble shooting backup issues is also simple due to clear errors (VSS errors shown in a understandable format for example)
The screens are very easy to understand and very detailed. I have not had any issues finding what I was looking for or understanding what options to use to create my backups. Cloudberry has a simple easy to use interface that is well designed and the documentation is excellent compared to some other backup software I have used in the past.
They are always quick to get you routed to a tech support person and always get follow up after contacting them. Last experience was amazing, she adjusted my boxes and they perform even better. I cannot say enough about the support. We had some trouble with one of the windows servers leaving the volume shadow copy out there and would fail. They worked with us to adjust and get working. After that it has been months since I have had to do anything with the server to keep the backups running.
I have not had to reach out to their support. However, when we were elvaluating options and looking at MSP360, their reps did a great job. They were able to answer our questions quickly, andf had a real understanding of their product and all the ways that it could be deployed.
Easy and successful implementation and the results have been very good with no issues since the install and go live. I highly recommend Cloudberry Backup software to anyone needing an easy to install, setup and manage backup solution. Excellent product with great features and reliability at a very good price point.
The time necessary to manage Barracuda Backups is leaps and bounds superior to Backup Exec. Backup Exec has tons of great features but required constant maintenance. In the end we just wanted the ability to easily schedule, set retention periods and the ability to backup and restore. Barracuda does this exceptionally well.
Mozy Pro is/was a decent product for self-service backup, but our typical client is not tech savvy enough to handle fixing the common errors (permissions, encrypted files etc> ) that cause failures. They do not monitor the backups on a regular basis, and they have no idea how to properly execute a restore. There is no ability to chose from multiple back-end storage platforms, retention periods are not nearly as flexible, the upload speed is slower and it does not have the bandwidth throttling that Cloudberry possesses, and it does not have true client-side encryption keys at least when we used it).
Since switching from Mozy Pro to Cloudberrylab four years ago, our ROI has been extremely positive. The reliability of the product has improved significantly such that we do not need to dedicate much staff time to monitor/manage the backups on a daily basis.
By designating a backup specialist within our organization tasked with keeping up with the latest features, testing restores, and fixing any issues that arise with client backups, we have a high level of efficiency and can respond to restore requests in a very short timeframe.
We have been able to lower the per GB price to our customers and still maintain our overall profitability for our backup service
