Great platform, great protection. We've been working with and recommending Barracuda's Essentials (e-mail) solution for about 6 months now. While we do have a few clients on their backup and archiving tiers, we're primarily focused on their anti-spam solution.
Setup is a breeze for anyone familiar with the basics of configuring DNS records (MX record specifically); we can insert Barracuda's anti-spam into a typical SMB client's mail flow in about 30 minutes and the protection is immediate.

We also have Barracuda Content Shield deployed to a Fortune 100 company to protect their workstations from accessing harmful websites.
The customer service and support we received from Barracuda just further seals the deal. No matter how good a product is, poor customer service and support is a deal breaker. Barracuda is superior to other vendor in this regard.
I highly recommend Barracuda for any SMB looking to protect their environment, or any MSP looking to add the product into their...
   Read moreI have found Barracuda to be a tremendous partner. Their product offerings and partner support have set many standards in the industry. The company is not one to coast along either, as they always look for improvements and new ways to bring value to the businesses who count on them as a vendor.

This team never stops providing top-notch customer service alongside their well-rounded model with support for sales, marketing, and engineering. They have continued to evolve with providing better and more creative marketing support alongside other creative partner support to help...
