I like that it prevents most emails from arriving in my inbox. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike that since nearly all messages are blocked, I often miss important messages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The device does what it is supposed to. It archives email. Not a lot to it beyond that. The Outlook add-ins are nice where we can allow users to search for their email. By default, it also allows another backup for email if a user accidentally deletes a message. I often find it faster to restore with the archiver than other restorative options I have. Overall I LOVE the device and highly recommend it to anyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Breaks in odd ways at times. Mostly dealing with Exchange, which is kinda odd at times in and of itself. Beyond that, there is not anything else I really just don't like about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The barracuda archiver is a one stop shop for your archival needs. For example it can be easily integrated with an email system with very minimal training and quickly. Reduces the load on mail servers. Works well when integrated with Microsoft products such as outlook, office, etc., And quickly search for old emails! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It can be sluggish at times as it relies on SATA. This in turn increases the time to relieve and other similar operations. The User interface could be made better, as it is not very intuitive. Customer support could be better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Once all is setup, very nice tool that will keep all your emails, and conversation history from Lync/Skype For Business in one place. Can't alter these emails either. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Set up takes some domain administration knowledge (Have to open your domain controller up and provide a valid SSL certificate-self signed won't work. Other option is to pull your AD info unencrypted over the public internet, which I am surprised is an option at all these days!). Documentation was unclear in some cases, such as what emails will import, and how to get everything on there initially, as the process is separate from the Essentials setup for email security. There are a few actions to take to make sure everything gets on there the first time-With large email databases this job is known to crash a few times before getting everything uploaded. After that, new emails are archived by journaling. Conversation history is pulled nightly as a separate job. This can be confusing to some, and also allows people to delete their conversation history before the pull happens at night. Despite all these downfalls, Support is available and ready to walk one through everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI could be easier to navigate, but overall I am happy with the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Really cool to use deduplication and compression for all messages, tasks, notes and contacts. Also lync for exchange. Like web-interface. Have polices for global removal of old email after some period of time. Really cool feature Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Costly, sometimes can be slow process of syncing of all email and calendars. Laggy deduplication sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its extremely user friendly and packs a real punch with the available features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are a few things that can be tedious to accomplish but for the most part there's not much to dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Barracuda has been so useful in freeing up space for us while still allowing us to keep information that may be necessary to look back on down the road. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Barracuda can be difficult to navigate at sometimes and only shows a portion of the email that I'm trying to view. When I'm not sure which email I need, I can often have to open many emails to find the right one, which can be time-consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
User interface is easy to navigate. Most basic operations are intuitive and easy to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Customer service can be lacking, notification banner on web page needs to go away, very slow when navigating or attempting to run search processes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
