Barracuda Email Security Gateway Valuable Features

Sameer Narayan - PeerSpot reviewer
IT Manager at Investment FIji

All of it has been quite useful. All features it provides on the cloud environment are very, very useful, including the antivirus that is enabled on it. 

It also has a threat management tool on it. It does a self-scanning so that it actually does zero-day tolerance. It's able to look at other Barracuda databases and is able to find the latest data and protect the network. There are a number of features that it has that we actually use to protect our network from email.

The setup is straightforward.

It's a good solution. Maybe if we switch to the cloud version, it will be more up-to-date. It's a good one.

It catches a lot of things and has the ability to add domains as well as add senders and update their things.

It could be more automated. Many solutions in the industry are now receiving automatic updates. This one, we believe, is not; however, a later version may be better.

The most valuable feature of the Barracuda Email Security Gateway is the cloud ATP functionality not available on the on-premise version. Most of the zero-day attacks can be mitigated with ATP. Additionally, the reporting functionality is good.

One advantage is its immediate deployment capability. So, the fast speed to deploy is a big plus point. 

Another plus is the broad security coverage provided by the Barracuda email security gateway, which shares the same approach to security events as the firewall. This can help improve the security of the MRA system.

The things I find valuable are how it is easy to maintain and its seamlessness. I cannot say it's better or worse than any other solution, but I have no issues with it as it does what it needs to do.
