"Basically stopped impersonation emails"
5/5
What do you like best about Barracuda Impersonation Protection?

As a school district we were receiving many impersonation emails a month. users could not tell the difference sometimes. After we signed up for barracuda Impersonation Protection it pretty much stopped. Once and a while an email gets through but it's not a very good impersonation and users can tell the difference.

"Works very well and good protection"
4/5
What do you like best about Barracuda Impersonation Protection?

it really drills down to which emails are being impersonated , where they are from , what email domain its coming from. It has a easy to use interface and it was very easy to implement. Customer support is outstanding for any issues we had. It easily integrates with our microsoft 365 enviroment and LDAP. We use very much often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Barracuda Impersonation Protection?

Alerts and intelligence. I also find that the information we see is not the same as customer support. it would be nice to see what they see as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Too many false positives based on algorithms, no real improvement"
2/5
What do you like best about Barracuda Impersonation Protection?

It is a decent high level security dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Barracuda Impersonation Protection?

Tons of false positives massively over-weighting the sending address e.g. gmail, icloud, outlook.com are almost impossible to get delivered because they have a rep score of 0. We have had repeated issues where customers would email nothing more than a screenshot of our app or a photo of an invoice, as requested by agents, and they would be blocked/moved to Junk because of impersonation protection's "extremely high confidence" of phishing when in fact there is no real way to phish this way.

"New insights to Barracuda ESS"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Barracuda Impersonation Protection?

Being able to view and remediate emails at a higher level that may otherwise be delivered to the end user is a stellar feature. I like the highlighting of potential issues in an email body, domain information (such as when a domain was registered), email flagging based on spam or conversation hijacking. We log into Impersonation Protection multiple times a day to review incoming emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Barracuda Impersonation Protection?

There are times that emails get flagged that shouldn't. While remediation is easy, it seems that the learning is still a bit off. Where it is not preferred to whitelist any particular sender or domain, we do see from time to time the same emails getting flagged and marked as junk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Barracuda Impersonation Protection?

What do you like best about Barracuda Impersonation Protection?

Among Barracuda Impersonation Protection’s key attributes is its state-of-the-art detection. This is made possible through machine learning algorithms which analyze emails’ readability and any anomalies indicative of hacking attempts. It, therefore, aids in recognizing complicated phishing scams that may go unnoticed by conventional techniques. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I adore the feeling it brings. I have no resentment for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
