A true shield against the dark.

  • October 01, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Barracuda Firewalls is their adaptability in regards to the variety of ways they can protect a network from a threat, whether it be inside the network or targeting from some far corner of the world.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside, really, is manually configuring nearly every setting. That said, once you become well versed in how to navigate, set up and operate the firewall rules, objects and aspects of the network(s) you're running, that downside becomes a strength.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've helped contain an infection of WannaCry Ransomware, configure firewall rules to allow a multitude of different programs or functions to work properly while still shielding the network from threats and given our customers the means to remotely connect to their networks and securely access their shared folder systems in a safe and convenient way. I'm sure there will be a great deal more I'll realize in the future.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We're currently working on implementing Barracuda Sentinel in the field, in conjunction with Barracuda Cloudgen Firewalls but there are so many other devices and applications in the Barracuda world. I encourage you to head over to www.barracuda.com and have a look at what they can offer.

the WAF with amazing pre and post deployment support

  • May 15, 2018
  • Review verified by AWS Marketplace

We have evaluated a few other WAF solutions… and our overall experience with the others compared to Barracuda re-enforces our final decision to go with Barracuda’s WAF.

Here is why Barracuda’s WAF stood out…
They have a knowledgeable and capable onboarding team and process.
They have a responsive support team.
Their http://campus.barracuda.com site and the built-in online help docs (accessible from the WAF) are well written and actionable.

Barracuda's WAF helped us secure more instances on AWS.

Within minutes, the solution was easily deployed using the AWS Marketplace and analyzing traffic in passive mode. Once the necessary changes were applied, the WAF was in production mode and protecting traffic.

Their WAF solution also includes a geo-filtering feature that allowed us to decommission an instance from an alternate provider.

Solid firewall

  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Definitely ease of use is what I like best. It has protected our company for years without any security issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
None actually. Maybe a few minor issues navigating the GUI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Benefits are saving us thousands by blocking potential threats.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great system that will handle all your spam filtering needs. Our Barracuda also uses the advanced licensing to scan and block email malicious attachments and links.

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.
