"It's a one-stop shop, meaning we just program and schedule the backups, decide what is being backed up, and then it automatically replicates and deduplicates."
"Of all the backup products we have used, this by far is the simplest to install and use."
"It is very reliable, so we don't have any issues with it. Our customers have never raised any issue with it. Basically, once you set it up and it is running, it is trouble-free. Our customers are happy. They just got a renewal for the subscription for the service."
"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."
"Most important is its ease of use. You plug it in, follow the steps, and you have your backup file."
"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 product is easy to install and use while doing what it is expected to do."
"The most valuable features are the deduplication that analyzes data to identify duplicate patterns and granular restore."
"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."
"Client-side encryption minimizes worries about data being captured on the back-end."
"It has allowed me to implement a cost effective, highly configurable solution."
"The UI is pretty good. It's very simple. That is one thing that we like about this. It's very user-friendly."
"The solution is simple to use and easy to configure."
"General ease of use and performance of the Windows version is the most valuable feature."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is its online backup capacity because you don't have to do an entire backup again and again, it just does whatever you type in, you type a, it goes a, you type b, it goes b. It doesn't take an entire site up again and again. So that incremental and bit by bit backup is important, it is a nice feature here."
"The most valuable feature for me is that I can see what has has been successfully backed up and what not. I do not mean the file or folder view, because that's problematic with GDPR, but I mean which machines have successfully backed up. It's very valuable because you don't have to check the machines. The second feature is that you can change backup settings in the portal."
"Its speed can be a bit improved, and of course, its pricing can go a lot cheaper."
"I would like to see the automatic backup of critical applications to the cloud."
"Some features like CIFS are not supported that would help speed and flexibility."
"The tool is not user-friendly. The solution should also improve its compatibility. It is also not license-based."
"It is not always stable."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see cloud support and deduplication functionality."
"The solution needs fine-grained backup capabilities to service individual users. But this is a minor issue considering all that the product does."
"Setting up Barracuda Backup is straightforward."
"The main improvement is that it should have GDPR compliance. That's the problematic point. They say they are GDPR compliant, but they are not."
"There are some things that we don't like about it. That is why I was exploring alternatives in a hyper-scale environment. That is why I was checking IT Central Station."
"We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines."
"The product could be more user-friendly."
"The solution's pricing is very high."
"The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated."
"As for what can be improved, some reports could be simplified so that you know how much backup you have done and what your backup details are. That report is available but it is very tough to get. I would like to know "today I have just uploaded 35 MB, tomorrow I have loaded 10 MB so my trend of backup is increasing.""
"The solution needs a better graphical user interface. It's a graphical user interface that is very old-school right now. They could give it a little more modern feel."
