What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are in the situation of covid so many are working from home in local home internet and this is how we can get many issues security-wise. To overcome those problems, we need to implement a firewall even for home users. And we are currently using Barracuda products.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As I said earlier, nowadays, even for home users, we need a firewall. So to avoid those security issues, we need to implement the best firewall which is cheaper and best. So i would like to suggest Barracude cloudgen firewall.
Not bad
What do you like best about the product?
Offers most security features like URL filtering, advanced threat protection, antivirus protection. It also offers some additional services like Proxy, SSL-VPN, etc. The best feature I like in the Barracuda Cloudgen firewall is, we can use it as a Proxy server as well as Gateway for LAN users, both work at the same time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Requires additional software called NG_admin, which is used to access the Cloudgen firewall. Policy creation is not straightforward, it has other dependencies on the Host firewall rules. saving the configured changes is very burden, we need to send the changes and activate them manually.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helped in solving problems like offering DHCP IPs for clients, Accessing internal office services from remote using SSL VPN, and helped in monitoring user traffic.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If budget is the main concern, it is good for them.
