An enterprise solution for backup and ransomware protection
Barracuda is a good product, and it allows us to protect all the information that resides in Office 365, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Exchange Solutions. It is easy to maintain Barracuda. Every happy customer is a good customer. If they're happy with our solution, it's a certified customer. Therefore, they are a good customer. That's why customer satisfaction is a good point for continuing to promote the product. The most valuable aspect of Barracuda Backup is its data recovery process. The feature that most customers appreciate is the ability to restore files to another system or location rather than solely restoring to the original data source. It can restore data for every peer spot in the clinic or replace it with a suitable alternative. I recommend the solution if you need a reliable backup. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Provides server-side and backend application support but needs better interface
It removes the headache and hassle for users. However, there’s a critical issue, especially with endpoint users: any change made will immediately reflect, and another problem is that the backup only retains data for 30 days.  Some users change files they might not remember or need to revert after a…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution’s scalability is good because its space is unlimited. We can start in Office365 with one terabyte bit of information and leverage through an enterprise solution of 1000 users."
"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."
"The way they handle the backups is pretty good."
"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 main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
"It has a straightforward installation."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"It's incredibly fast."
 

Cons

"An improvement is required in reports and backups for sharing on Linux and Unix."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"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."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud."
"The speed could be better."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console."
"The backup time is very poor. The backup runs continuously. It goes on from morning till night. The system performance also becomes very poor when Druva inSync is running."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is an expensive product for the middle class or SMB customers in India. A lot of top-level big companies also cannot afford this solution. During the license period, one can download the entire data from the cloud without paying any additional cost. This way the data can be easily recreated from the stored data when a machine is lost or the data is compromised."
"The pricing is good."
"The product is fairly priced, I would rate its pricing five out of ten."
"Once you decide to go with this product the cost can be worked out with the vendor."
"The pricing is thirty-five dollars per year or three dollars per month per user."
"It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being very cheap and ten being very expensive."
"The price is quite good, It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
