Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Barracuda Backup is a perfect unlimited cloud backup solution that we use. This tool is used across the organization. I had no problem implementing it because its interface is excellent and easy to manage. After I finished the implementation and configuration of the schedules, you wait for error and failure notifications. Not even with the updates I had to bother, these are optimized and performed automatically at the given time. Restorations are simple as well and save lives.

Pros and Cons

Restoring data is very easy.
VMware and SQL backup and integration.

The alerts could be better.
The price seems a little expensive.

Return on Investment

Enhanced virtual security with quality backups and restores.
Automated the backup system in the organization.

Alternatives Considered

Veritas Backup Exec

All solutions have their positive, neutral, and negative points. Veritas Backup Exec is excellent too. But it is more expensive and does not offer a management interface as friendly as Barracuda Backup is. We also have brand reliability because other company employees have also worked for years with the tool, and no one has reported any serious problems.

Support Rating

Overall it is an excellent cloud backup tool with a high degree of restoration power. Clean interface, easy to use, and manage. It has fast and efficient technical support. Everyone in the organization is familiar with the tool, and this contributed a lot to the acquisition as well. Thanks to this tool, we recovered from an attack by hackers, viruses, and ransomware.
