Filter to Decipher Between Spam / Clutter
What do you like best about the product?
I like that my inbox is not inundated with emails. Especially since every store and business asks for your email these days, those emails can be filtered.
What do you dislike about the product?
As a teacher, often parent emails are sent to Barracuda. Parents will ask why they did not receive a response, and the teacher will find it in Barracuda. Unless the teacher checks this regularly, it will go unnoticed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The benefit of Barracuda is that teachers can avoid spam emails. When companies nag for fundraisers, fake products or businesses reach out, it is nice not to even see it in the inbox. It is nice to be able to have access to Barracuda at any time.

It is generally a must-have tool when it comes to securing a business email gateway.

Without a doubt, Barracuda Email Security Gateway has been very helpful, and I have not experienced difficulties using the tool - not even a single day.

Barracuda EMS
What do you like best about the product?
Clean interface and management console. System is accurate in scanning email, false positives are quickly corrected by support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Users need more control over some features - for example allowing relaying through on-premise servers requires support to activate feature for you.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows us to manage multiple client email systems from one console - adds control over off-site backups as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take advantage of implementation team - their expertise is invaluable when rolling out the product.
A simple solution for your secure email
What do you like best about the product?
It's very simple to use. This appliance blocks about 90% of malicious emails out of the box.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can't detect any regexp or wildcard character very well. If we configure with some wildcard character to be searched and discarded it failed to do sometime.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The default mail scanner of the postfix is pretty bad. It has zero visibility over the advanced phishing emails. This is where barracuda ESG comes in. It's very effective compared to the legacy postfix or Zimbra mail scanner.
Great product, robust features and easy setup
What do you like best about the product?
Feature rich with easy web based interface
What do you dislike about the product?
Almost too simplified, need support for advanced scripting and she’ll access
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Malware / content scanning definitions can cause issues with content delivery latency
Frendly interface, intelligent threat-filtering solution
What do you like best about the product?
This is a plug and play device. We were really surprised to see how easy it was to deploy. This appliance works out of the box, After just few clicks, we got it running. Do not get that fooled you. Reading these you might think that the device may not work well. But it was brilliant! Most of the threats were scanned with the pre-configured settings.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has no options to block the promotional messages; which is not a big deal, but it sometimes gets annoying. I would be great if we could have much more control over user preference. It's just too simple to manage. The machine learning part is also underdeveloped. One have to train the system with 200 valid mails and 200 unwanted message and need to keep training the system over the time. Which some times feels tiring.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have reduced the incoming spams by 80-85% which really helped us to focus on some other important things.
I replaced a per-user email filtering service with a highly-available Barracuda solution
What do you like best about the product?
Once an organization reaches a certain number of mailboxes, using a Barracuda spam filtering appliance is more cost-effective than paying a third party spam filtering service.
What do you dislike about the product?
Configuring two appliances for high availability is more difficult than it needs to be.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When running an on-premises email environment (Exchange in my case), you have to have a solution in place to quarantine potentially dangerous emails. and allow users to view the quarantine and release emails that are legitimate. For a small business it makes sense to pay a third party service at a per-user, per-month rate, but that becomes cost-prohibitive at scale. I moved a small oil-and-gas services company from third party spam filtering to a dual-Barracuda on-premises solution and recognized about $25,000 in annual cost savings.
A game changer!
What do you like best about the product?
Barracuda really helped us to reduce the number of spams to almost 90%. The GUI is very easy to manage. It felt like it is a plug and play device. Highly recommended.
What do you dislike about the product?
Spoofing mails are not very easily detectable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Spam mails are thing of a past now. The most satisfying part is, if barracuda is not sure about any mail, it sends the mail to quarantined mail box. Where I have the full privilege to mark the mail as a safe one and deliver it to the intended recipient.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a plug and play device and very easy installation. Highly recommended.
Great solution for on-prem and cloud
What do you like best about the product?
Easy single console management and email spooling feature
What do you dislike about the product?
ATP is only availble through cloud account
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Blocking all spam emails and unwanted email marketting campains. Email spooling feature is very helpfull in case of having downtimes for mail server. It will keep all the recieved emails untill the mail server comes online.
Barracuda was very beneficial for our company when using it.
What do you like best about the product?
The software was pretty accurate when filtering spam emails.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much I disliked about the software, it was very user friendly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Weren’t really solving any problems with the software but made sure our clients were safe.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely make sure you take any courses on the admin tool. Though easy, it’s still beneficial to learn the admin portal.
