Highlights
Barracuda Cloud Archiving Service lets users easily access their archived data wherever they are working and from any device
Barracuda archives data outside your operational email environment in a dedicated tamperproof repository, ensuring it will be retained for as long as you need it without risk of corruption or deletion.
Our policy based approach uses granular retention policies to ensure that you automatically retain each item of data securely for as long as it is needed. This means you can confidently demonstrate you are meeting government and regulatory requirements and operating defensible deletion policies.
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on the duration and terms of your contract with the vendor. This entitles you to a specified quantity of use for the contract duration. If you choose not to renew or replace your contract before it ends, access to these entitlements will expire.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
This listing has one pricing dimension: the Cloud Archiving Service, billed per user. You pay based on the number of users you cover, not on storage volume. Archiving is licensed per user with no retention or storage limits. Pricing scales directly as you add or remove users. The service is delivered fully from the cloud, with no customer hardware or software to manage. Because there is a single dimension, there are no tiers or add-ons to choose between — your cost changes only with your user count.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one user for billing?
A user is one email account you want to archive. You pay per user, not per message or mailbox size. Each covered account counts once, regardless of how many emails it sends or receives. Storage and retention have no limits per user, so message volume does not change your per-user charge.
Does storing more email raise my cost?
No. The service gives unlimited storage per user with no retention or storage limits. Your cost is driven only by the number of users, not the amount of data archived. Adding more archived messages for existing users does not increase your bill.
What happens to my cost when I add or remove users?
Cost scales directly with your user count. Adding users increases your total by the per-user rate applied to each new account. Removing users lowers it accordingly. There are no tiers, so the same per-user rate applies to every account rather than only additional ones.

What do you like best about the product?
It's so simple to search for email! I work at a law firm, so we're constatly being asked to find this or that email. Barracuda provides easy to understand instruction, which can get a beginner up to speed quickly. The web interface is layed out well and the controls are intuitive. We've been using Barracuda for years, and wouldn't go with anyone else. Also, customer service is top notch.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some rules to searching that you need to know before you get started. For instance, putting all of your "or" searches before the "and" searches. This is really the only reason we've needed to contact customer support. This should be made more obvious on the search screen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Barracuda helps us find correspondance and attachments quickly and efficiently.

What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface is not as intuitive as it could be. Once you get used to it, it is absolutely fine.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Access to historic emails for contractual or forensic purposes. The ability to do a quick search that looks back over the 3 years we have been using it and find emails that match a complex (or simple) criteria. As a speed comparison, eDiscovery can take a few hours to produce output for a search that takes 15 seconds in Barracuda.
