"Barracuda's support is probably one of the best things about them, even with all their solutions. With any problem that we have, or even questions, we get the assistance that we need. The turnaround is pretty quick."
"The scalability of the product is fine."
"The most valuable feature is the speed of backup, which is very good compared to other solutions."
"The backup feature is most valuable. That's why we took it."
"They are the best support that we have had so far. When you contact or email them, they are very quick to respond. They always have someone available for us. That's what we want as a customer, we want someone to listen to us."
"The configuration and the onboarding process are pretty good."
"The superior support from Barracuda in setting up, using, and helping with issues for the product."
"It is very easy to expand disks and manage CIFS."
"The solution is stable."
"The replication feature is noteworthy because it's faster than most and it uses little bandwidth. Then there's the friendly interface that the equipment offers. With this interface, it is very easy to manage."
"The most valuable features are the NAS features and NetApp's excellent support."
"A reliable and easily managed storage system is a key performance factor. The system also has more features than we require."
"It offers data compression and people management."
"The solution has tiers inside which means we do not only need to use SSDs."
"It changed the way we do Disaster Recovery (DR) around NetApp replication."
"Compared to Avamar and Data Domain (our other systems), the backup speed is slow."
"The solution needs fine-grained backup capabilities to service individual users. But this is a minor issue considering all that the product does."
"This solution could be improved with offering lower prices at scale."
"Barracuda Backup could use some more integration."
"The solution depends on your connectivity, so it is essential to have a proper connection to the cloud."
"Some features like CIFS are not supported that would help speed and flexibility."
"The restore time can be improved. The restore time for large quantities of folders is slow. Sometimes, if I'm doing a full recovery of a server, it takes multiple hours, which probably is natural. It might also be because of our internet speed to the cloud."
"We cannot backup Sun Micro systems. They are not currently supported."
"Needs more SAN support."
"I’ve found that I use command line more often than I thought needed. Some things should be done in the GUI, and command-line switches can be overwhelming and take up a lot of time."
"Currently, the newest release is not HCI friendly."
"The solution can improve on the replication features."
"NetApp needs to put its OS on a microchip rather than on disks."
"Installation of the additional switches and ETP could be improved."
"The solution could do more than just data."
"Its operating system is very cumbersome. However, after you set it up, it runs pretty smoothly. Its file system is not very dynamic. It is very static."
