Overall Satisfaction with Barracuda Email Security Gateway

Tracking emails for organizations along with spam scores with filters. It helps in mitigating malware and phishing emails. We also use it to block or allow certain types of emails. Its rules help us to mitigate our defense against an ever changing landscape to defend our email systems.

Pros

  • Sender policies easily created.
  • Ability to search emails quickly with multiple criteria.
  • Ability to send blocked emails.

Cons

  • Multiple select does not allow to do bulk actions.
  • Inability to move email content from quarantine or deleted folders to other folders.
  • Reports are limited, but data can be exported for other use.
  • Our average emails are about 2000 per day and this product helps mitigate spam and malicious content.
  • Once combined with other Barracuda email products, this becomes the foundational piece to use.
  • You need to have adequate training which they provide but takes a while to train up your staff to be fully functional.

Would you buy Barracuda ESG (discontinued) again?

Yes

Good combination when using their other products like an incident response. When using automated workflows, this makes creating sender policies a breeze. Unfortunately, this can also be done too well as it may filter out valid emails and to resend or place them back into users' mailbox isn't an easy thing to do even if you attempt to resend through the Email Security Gateway.
