Sophos UTM vs Barracuda

Anyone have any experience with Barracuda UTM products and how they perform? With Sophos leaving me no option with its "NextGen" product and stellar support I'm now in the market. I'm just curious how they compare.

  • I have used the Barracuda spam filter appliance for anout 10 years.  Probably an industry leading product then, but has not been reimagined since.   Cloud version seemed to be similar design but much more money.  However, I have always found their support very responsive and competent and American.

    I use UTM spam filter to catch tbe spam that Basracuda lets through.   The combination is very effective.  I have a vendor prospecting me with the assertion that Barracuda has a competitive disadvantage with allowed spam, so kt may be a systemic issue.

    You have not said what you are shopping for.   I would be interested to see your RFP requirements and what it will cost to meet thrm.  UTM has been a pretty good value for me, but if I had time and money for a new procurement, I would look for features that I wish were in UTM, but I don't think it exists in my price point.
