We performed a comparison between Azure Backup and Barracuda Backup based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Setting up Azure Backup is straightforward and the total deployment time was about a month."
"The feature that I have found the most valuable is that it is easy to create a backup by using Azure Backup. It also has a good user interface and nice features for sending notifications when any backup fails or there is a change in the status of virtual machines."
"The daily backups have become easier since we no longer need to handle large backups. The use of Azure Backup as a service has proven reliable and simplified our daily operations. Previously, we relied on LTO backups for data retention, but after migrating to the cloud and adopting Azure Backup, the delivery process has become smoother."
"The backup features are very useful."
"I like the product's restoration cases."
"The product is cost-effective compared to other vendors."
"This solution is easy to configure and restore. It is a Microsoft product so is easily compatible with other solutions."
"It is a stable solution...It is a highly scalable solution."
"The solution’s scalability is good because its space is unlimited. We can start in Office365 with one terabyte bit of information and leverage through an enterprise solution of 1000 users."
"It doesn't have the option to have a backup from the database. It has backup for the files, folders, and backup only the whole virtual machine. But if I need to do a backup from the Oracle database, from an Exchange server or from SharePoint, this ability isn't there. There is no application backup."
"Azure Backup's licensing model is very challenging because it doesn't give a clear picture."
"Lacks an AI system that would enable easier upgrading of the hardware."
"The Azure Backup support for on-premises service is limited."
"In Avamar, the file-based restores are very quick and fast, whereas, in Azure Backup, VM restore is super easy, but if I have to do a file or a folder restore, I have to mount the entire VM image. I have to wait for some time for it to be mounted, and then I have to go inside and then check the file and copy it somewhere. It's a bit of a manual process, whereas in Avamar, you can directly select a file and folder, and it'll recover with whatever permissions you want."
"Technical support is in need of improvement."
"Azure Backup must include features similar to enterprise solutions."
"Azure Backup could improve the backup data copies because they are not immutable."
"An improvement is required in reports and backups for sharing on Linux and Unix."
