Find out in this report how the two Deduplication Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The cloud side of it is nice. Everything happens behind the scenes without you realizing it, which is nice. It doesn't interrupt usage. There is also the freedom and ease of use of the cloud portal, which you can use to manage your backup. One of the strong points of Barracuda is that you can go from zero to having your first backup running within 10 minutes. If you have access to admin accounts and everything else, it can happen in 10 minutes. The ability to go in and just restore a particular file without having to do a full restore is also very useful. You can just go in and pick the files that you need to restore, and the same is with email. You can just go in, find an email, and restore that email without having to do a full backup of all the data or a full restore of the data. I feel very safe because it is not just about the backup; it is about the protection of the data from outside threats. They have a lot of areas of ATP, that is, advanced threat protection. You don't see that much on the backup side. You see it more on the email side. In the email protection, you know it is there at the back. It moves the quarantine emails that come through into a sandbox area, and then you can choose in the sandbox. You can open up an email in the sandbox to make sure that if there is a virus, it can't harm you. You can also plan how often your backups run, such as every six hours or four hours. It is the same with email. They also have a great PhishLine package, which is phishing attack training. You can have the strongest and the best backup and security that you can, but the end user is always the weakest link. They send almost like testing emails to end users to help them identify and understand phishing emails and prevent user or phishing attacks. It is a very good package."
"The main feature we like about Barracuda is that we can map devices directly to the cloud. It operates as a security device to run a backup of the cloud in case one of our physical machines goes down."
"The most valuable feature is unlimited data storage on the cloud. Even if the employee has left the company for a few years, the backup will still be maintained."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the speed of backup, which is very good compared to other solutions."
"Most important is its ease of use. You plug it in, follow the steps, and you have your backup file."
"The performance is good and the interface is user-friendly."
"The most important feature in Barracuda Backup is the ability to archive the backup of emails."
"Veeam Agent for Linux's most valuable feature is the compatibility with virtual machines, such as VMware."
"The only thing I really like about it is that you can deploy it from Backup and Replication onto a virtual Linux machine."
"The Veeam Backup and Replication Suite is very user-friendly."
"It's most compatible with VMware. It can restore single files instead of having to restore the whole machine, once again leading to savings for the company."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its integration with Veeam Backup & Replication console."
"It is scalable."
"The flexibility and user-friendliness of Veeam make it very IT operations-friendly."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to pick up individual files."
"This solution could be improved with offering lower prices at scale."
"Some features like CIFS are not supported that would help speed and flexibility."
"I would like to see better integration with third-party applications."
"I would like to see the Live Boot feature extended to Hyper-V machines, in addition to VMware machines."
"Compared to Avamar and Data Domain (our other systems), the backup speed is slow."
"The backup feature could be a bit simpler to utilize. They should make the process of backing up individual files simpler."
"I would like to see the automatic backup of critical applications to the cloud."
"The solution needs fine-grained backup capabilities to service individual users. But this is a minor issue considering all that the product does."
"One problem in Veeam Agent for Linux is that you can't use your license for all your machines because you don't have a virtual machine, so if you're going to add machines and scale, you'd need to pay extra."
"The price of Veeam Agent for Linux could be reduced."
"I would like to be able to install Veeam directly to Linux instead of having to go through a Windows server."
"In the next version, I would like to see an increase in the locations online. I have found that other products have good pickup location."
"The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable."
"It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network."
"The pricing could be lowered if possible."
"Scalability, if you are talking about Linux, is good. However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible."
