Barracuda Firewall F400 in Higher Ed

  • January 12, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The support is the best part about the Barracuda Firewall's and any Barracuda product for that matter. We have a few of their products and their support is the best in the industry. They by far go above and beyond.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see a full blown web management interface on the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has already caught quite a number of issues for us. The IPS has done a great job alerting us to when something suspicious is going on. This lets us be able to see things as they occur real time. It is also our means of controlling our bandwidth usage. We especially like the fact that we can shape traffic based on not just IP events, but also by applications using up all of our bandwidth.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go to their website and sign up for a free personalized webinar. Let then set you up with and online demo unit. They will also send you a unit to try on your site.

Easy way to keep users mostly safe

  • November 20, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It keeps our network users from picking up a lot of viruses and malware.before they get on their workstations which pretty much then requires that system must be wiped and restored.
What do you dislike about the product?
A lot of our vendor's sites we must download firmware and much of them are blocked because they are in southeast Asia. It would be nice if there was a quick way to temporarily white-list a site or domain.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Computer viruses and malware

Love Barracuda

  • October 11, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It keeps spam out of my email. I don't like a cluttered email box and I love being about to block domains.
What do you dislike about the product?
That we can't just push a button in Outlook any more. It is a pain to have to go to the Barracuda website to block emails.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeps my email uncluttered and lessens the chance I will click on a malevolent email link or download bad viruses.

Best next gen firewall

  • June 30, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the Application awareness of the firewall. Really allows you to monitor what is going on and what users are doing.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a little time to afjust to the configuration interface. Because the firewall has many options and features the interface is complexer then other (not next gen) firewalls
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it a lot for the antivirus and the atp (advanced threat protection). In time of cryptolockers, Securing internet access with ssl interception and antivirus and atp is really helpfull to protect Your users and computers
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take Your time to get used and get familier with the interface.

Barracuda Firewall Review

  • November 30, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite aspect about this software is that it has the capability to protect all of your devices within the same program.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I dislike about this software at this point. I think it is fast, affordable and easy to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is making us more comfortable that we are not being hacked or losing any of our private information in cyberspace.

    Logistics and Supply Chain

I have been a user of Barracuda Firewall. The only frustration I have is how good the software is!

  • October 31, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
If, I owned a business I would want to implement something like this. The main items my employer does not want employees to access are shut down entirely. It's amazing how they are able to ensure certain sites are not permitted.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is entirely frustrating to have to deal with cites you need to use or business use blocked by Barracuda. I see why an employer would wish to have this software in place however. It is also difficult to have a cite lifted from the ban.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our company had a lot of difficulties in the past with users slacking off and not doing the required work during work hours. Now they are more focused because they have to be. We have also seen an increase in security and have been less prone to hacks. It has been good working with Barracuda to get this increased security.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Yes, it is clear our company has benefited from using this type of software. It has been good to see our team get better at managing their time.

Great Firewall and Security Tool

  • October 18, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Barracuda has an easy to use interface and configuration is not only very versatile, but very logical.
Weather you have a few users or an entire fleet, this option will keep you covered.
What do you dislike about the product?
Basic setup is logical and easy, more custom and complicated setups require a higher than average knowledge of firewalls and network logistics. Not a big issue, but startups may be challenged if they do not have access to higher end resources
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have used Barracuda to safeguard not only our network from intrusion but to limit our internal liability due to unauthorized "surfing".
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do your homework, be sure that you know what you need, Barracuda is a great tool but not perfect for every application. Be sure to purchase the proper tool for you job and you will be happy with your purchase!

Great Product, Great Company

What do you like best about the product?
Barracuda systems are very easy to use and administer. The firewall is great for web security and if there are any issues Barracuda's support is one of the best.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike. We use many different Barracuda products and all work very well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The firewall protects the internal network from outside attacks. This benefits the users and admins from having no down time when someone is trying to hack into the network.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great product that you won't regret switching too!
