Reliable backups have protected all cloud data and now provide quick recovery for users
The features include easy setup, easy to use, and unlimited storage. Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup has positively impacted my organization by helping us with lost productivity when someone deletes a cloud-stored item and we can retrieve it easily. With wrong creation of Teams and no owners assigned, we get notified. It helps me worry less that in the worst-case scenario, mailboxes and Teams are easily restorable to continue with online learning at a very low risk. It also proves useful, for instance, where a user accidentally loses or deletes an important email or a file in the mailbox. The team can easily restore what has been lost.

Adopting advanced convergence and seamless management elevates data protections
While there are improvements to be made, such as providing support for older systems like IBM iSeries and tandem systems from HP, the solution overall shifts from older methods to modern practices. Customers looking for features that older systems provided might find gaps, but these are typically for very specific needs.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product is deployable anywhere. It is also scalable and reliable."
"We've noticed fewer data losses by 90% compared to our previous tool since implementing Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup."
"The product enables us to restore lost files."
"The most valuable feature of Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup is it's synchronized well with Microsoft 365. Additionally, the solution is able to identify through Microsoft Defender if there are viruses and will provide a notification."
"Overall, I am a very satisfied user of Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup."
"The initial setup is pretty simple."
"The most valuable feature is the AI with threat detection that can detect ransomware and restore it."
"The product's most valuable feature is the backup retention policy."
"We are looking forward to the next release, so we can take advantage of the AHV backup for our Nutanix environment."
"The restores are easy to do and have made it so that we can incorporate restores into our troubleshooting processes."
"Some of the most valuable features of Cohesity DataProtect for me include instant mass restore, anomaly detection, and its ability to handle large data volumes effectively."
"Cohesity is extremely easy to use and intuitive."
"Backups are quick and painless to set up.​"
"We are saving valuable datacenter rack space, which is critical as we evaluate co-location options."
"We can run test scripts on production data."
"The most valuable features of Cohesity DataProtect are SpanFS and the handling of hybrid workloads."
 

Cons

"Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup can be improved by addressing that when performing a restore, the search filter and the mailbox filter can be confusing, depending on what you want to achieve."
"Navigating through folders and finding files can be a bit slow, taking up to three to five seconds between clicks, which feels slow compared to the speed in SharePoint or a browser."
"They should adapt to new parameters as the market grows."
"Locating and recovering files can be confusing."
"The tool does not support Google Support. I have only Microsoft 365 customers. I don't have a good solution for my G-suite customers."
"We needed assistance with the implementation of the solution from the vendor. The process could be easier."
"What would be great should be either a guaranteed restore or a guaranteed restoring speed."
"The solution may be improved by allowing integration with other platforms."
"Their UI requires a manual refresh. It doesn't seem like it updates itself sometimes when you're moving from screens or waiting for a change to take effect, so you have to manually refresh."
"Add the ability to delete View Boxes and External Targets in the GUI."
"The solution has a more complex setup than Veritas and Veeam."
"They could always keep up with continuous interface refinements."
"Quality testing of upgrades should be somewhat improved."
"Better support for legacy platforms would be nice, but we should be moving off those anyway."
"Cohesity DataProtect needs to improve its reporting capabilities."
"You need to put the full name instead of a few letters while searching for backup. It should also improve customization."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is reasonable compared to other products."
"The product's pricing is fair and competitive."
"This is a cost-effective solution."
"The product's pricing is based on the customer's needs because every customer is different."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"There is monthly licensing."
"My advice is to always negotiate for better pricing."
"It has reasonable pricing, and we know they can give discounts. If you look at the primary pricing or the list pricing, it conforms to the market pricing, but you have to have a discount on it. Otherwise, it is way too expensive."
"The pricing model is impressive and very effective."
"We purchased support from Cohesity to ensure that should we face an issue, we don't have to deal with different service providers."
"I expect the system to probably pay off within the first two years."
"The ROI is huge. Not really measurable at this point, but the price of the unit was a fraction of what a couple hours of downtime could result in."
"Licensing is per node and per protected terabyte. You will also pay 10-15% annually for support."
