Featured Reviews

Johan Camp - PeerSpot reviewer
Reliable, easy to set up, and offers good pricing
In the future, we are looking for solutions combining both local and cloud backup from a single management platform that was initially not yet available. There were two different platforms at Barracuda. What would be great should be either a guaranteed restore or a guaranteed restoring speed. It's difficult as they rely on Azure too. However, that would be convenient from a user perspective.
Ahmad Mohammed EL-DADA - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides server-side and backend application support but needs better interface
The last update made the interface look somewhat unfamiliar to users. Data recovery was technically flawless at some point. However, an update after a merger changed things. The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward as before, and we're facing some challenges. Specifically, one user encrypted their data, and since they have left the company, we cannot decrypt it. This has resulted in a loss of access to that data.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"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."
"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."
"The product enables us to restore lost files."
"The product is deployable anywhere. It is also scalable and reliable."
"The initial setup is pretty simple."
"Overall, I would rate Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup a nine out of ten."
"Druva is offered as a service so that we can access it from any enterprise-based browser or URL. We also have a single sign-on, which allows me to log in securely. Hence, I can easily access the system, configure it, perform day-to-day monitoring tasks, and check for any issues or configurations needed. Overall, it's a simple and easy-to-use tool with a high-speed and straightforward interface for management."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"Users do not need to contact IT administrators to recover lost or deleted files. They can do it on their own, eliminating waiting time."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"Our customers do not need to purchase third party storage or a separate server for data backup."
"One of the most valuable features is it is available on the cloud, so I do not need to make a firewall. Second, the backup speed is outstanding. The third thing is that the section policy is very good and gives you a lot of flexibility and granularity regarding what you need to back up."
 

Cons

"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."
"Locating and recovering files can be confusing."
"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."
"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."
"Druva inSync is very high in price. A general customer cannot afford this solution. Even if the product is good, people cannot afford such a high cost just for taking the backup. This is a recurring investment, and the customers have to pay for it every year. Druva is also yet to develop the channel and the channel or partner commitment."
"One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console."
"The speed could be better."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"The solution takes a lot of time during restoration."
"To make Druva inSync better, they can implement additional DLP."
"The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward"
"The one area that needs to improve is the pricing."

This way the data can be easily recreated from the stored data when a machine is lost or the data is compromised."
