    For its price the product is very cost effective. For our university it's important to be able to backup students as well as employees and other products tend to have at least limited cost to students. As there are so many students in our university the cost involved with other products would make them too costly. As the amount of data that is involved with M365 is so vast, it's also nice not to have extra cost involved for space used. The product is cloud based, so for some organizations that might be a problem.

    It provides reliable daily backup tasks and it is important for us to have no worries of system crush. BDRSuite is full featured, I had been using BDRSuite to replicate servers from Hyper-v to ESXi, it's quite useful and easily to process than other VM migration tools between different platform. BDRSuite costs less than other backup product because I can decrease/increase/allocate license between VMs easily. The license charge two ways, server or VM. We choose VM license.

    • Seed an offsite backup. A simple checkbox to seed a large backup prior to backing it up to our datacenter. Previously with another well knows backup provider this was convoluted and time-consuming.
    • Backup Speed. Vembu BDR is fast and allows me to schedule multiple jobs within time constraints that prohibit some backup products from working.
    • DR - Vembu BDR provides an option to mirror your backups to an offsite datacenter without taxing production servers with a secondary backup job.
    • Bare Metal Recovery: the ability to create a custom bootable ISO that you can quickly recover a failed physical server or workstation.
    • Ease of use: The console is consistent and very easy to use. From initial install to being fully configured takes just a few minutes.

    Cons
    Barracuda Networks Inc.
    • The final output when downloading is a bit bulky and hard to find things based on subject headers.
    • Wish there was a range to export out.
    • The UI is not as snappy as I would have expected.

    • User interface on the servers do not have enough tools to better monitor the systems and finding information is difficult.
    • User interface at portal is difficult to navigate and confusing
    • Support documentation is too generic and rarely answers my questions.
    • Licensing and acquisition. As a reseller and partner the licensing model is confusing and the portal interface to manage licensing should be scrapped and rebuilt. It is difficult to navigate and the available information is too vague.
    • Recently, communication with new channel contact. My previous contact was articulate and answered my questions.
    • Did I mention licensing? This is the most confusing and difficult process I've dealt with in 25 years. Makes Microsoft look simple.

    Because of the product functions and possibilities: - it's easy to use through WEB browser - installation process is not complicated - Vembu BDR solution is reliable, and works properly. It does the job. This product could get extra points for the appliance that could be imported to virtual environment (no need for windows server license or some linux knowledge).

    Usability
    Barracuda Networks Inc.
    The product is very simple to use . That is a good thing and a bad thing as there could be some more advanced view or filtering options if you for example have to restore entire organization units data. There could also me more information from the whole organizations backup status

    Friendly web interface very clear, nicely and professionally designed. Usability, setup and forget. It has all features you need for hybrid environments even if you don't use it. You know the features are there when you needed. Email report is so informative. You get all the details about completed backup without logging in the system

    It often takes a very long time to get an issue fixed. the support folks seem committed to getting it fixed but they often seem to be trying different things and hoping something works. I did not get the sense that they had a clear idea what was wrong.

    in a few clicks the backup was running. The first restore was exiting since we didn't know what to expect.

    It wasn't difficult at all, it fact, it was mostly simple, implementation doesn't require much skills and knowledge, but the configuration part does require some skills to create the jobs and configure certain settings, overall, its an easy implementation, especially for experienced IT People

    I tested Vembu against Veeam and for the price, Vembu was the better option. I also had a great support experience as I had to contact Vembu twice after mistakes I made. While using Veeam the software was not as intuitive and support responses were not as swift and accurate.

    Return on Investment
    Barracuda Networks Inc.
    • Helps me worry a little less that in the worst case scenario, mailboxes & teams are easily restorable to continue with online learning at the very least.
    • Whilst we weren't spending any money on backing up our Microsoft 365 data, I would say that it's worth every penny. Especially in a disaster recovery scenario.
    • It also proves useful in instances where a user accidentally loses or deletes an important email or file in their mailbox/team. It can easily restore what has been lost.

    • For organizations that use different tools for Backup and recovery, this could be the single tool for Storage and Backup Administrators to automate and work effectively.
    • Software cost is lesser thus the money can be invested for other tools/software procurement
    • I don't think there is any negative impact as of now
