Dimension | Description | Cost/month |
|---|---|---|
Advance Email protection | Email Gateway Defense and Impersonation Protection | $6.70 |
Dimensions summary
This bundle uses a single pricing dimension billed per user. You pay for each user you protect, so your total cost scales directly with the number of users covered. The dimension bundles Email Gateway Defense and Impersonation Protection together under one per-user rate. Pricing follows a contract model, meaning you commit for a set term rather than paying by usage. There are no separate tiers or add-on charges within this listing — you select your user count, and the per-user rate applies across all covered users.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
You are billed per user account you protect. Each mailbox or user covered by the service counts as one user. Your total is the per-user rate multiplied by the number of users you enroll under the contract.
The single per-user rate covers Email Gateway Defense and Impersonation Protection together. Email Gateway Defense blocks spam, malware, and ransomware at delivery. Impersonation Protection detects phishing and business email compromise attempts that spoof trusted identities. Both are included under one charge.
Cost scales directly with user count. Adding users increases your total by the same per-user rate applied to each new user. There are no separate tiers or step changes within this listing, so the rate stays consistent across all covered users.

Intuitive Setup, Reliable Microsoft 365 Integration, and Strong Phishing Detection
Reviewed on Sep 08, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The software was straightforward to set up, with a clear and intuitive user interface that makes it easy to monitor email activity and review quarantined messages. It integrated smoothly with our Microsoft 365 environment and runs reliably in the background without noticeably affecting email performance. The pricing provides a good return on investment by reducing manual monitoring and helping protect the business from costly phishing attacks and compromised accounts. Support and onboarding were thorough, and the AI has been effective at detecting phishing attempts, malicious links and other suspicious emails while keeping false positives manageable.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main drawback is that some advanced settings and reports can be difficult to locate within the interface. Although the Microsoft 365 integration works well, configuration changes still require administrator knowledge and careful policy management. The AI occasionally quarantines legitimate emails, meaning they must be manually reviewed and released, which can delay important messages. The monthly cost is also significant, so the return on investment can be difficult to measure when no major incidents occur. While onboarding was thorough, more complex support issues can take time to investigate, and the reasons behind some AI decisions are not always immediately clear.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Barracuda Email Protection helps protect our Microsoft 365 environment from phishing, impersonation attempts, spam, malicious links and harmful attachments. It identifies and quarantines suspicious messages before they reach users, which reduces the risk of account compromise, data loss and business disruption. This also saves our IT team time by reducing the number of threats that need to be investigated manually and gives us better visibility and control over email security across the business.

Powerful and flexible Email Protection with Easy-to-Use Administration
Reviewed on Sep 07, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Barracuda's email protection services are some of the best I've used - not only in terms of the actual spam and phishing protection, but also in terms of ease-of-use for both the user and the administrators. The panel offers a great deal of flexibility allowing us to configure the filters to our need, make any exceptions or blocks needed, and very quickly diagnose why specific mail was or wasn't blocked. It integrates well with our existing mail environment and our existing SSO to allow for easy access as well. Whenever we have had to get in touch with Barracuda for any occasional issue (which is quite rare!) they have always responded very quickly and resolved the issue within 24 hours of our contact.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't really much to say! The admin panel might be a little slow, but after all it is an email panel meant to help you diagnose across tens of thousands of emails or thousands of policies, etc. and they are making improvements on it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Spam and phishing are basically a non-problem thanks to Barracuda, only occasionally getting through to users. Barracuda also scans our mail for any viruses or suspicious files among other things.

Fast, intelligent, and seamlessly integrated – strong whitelisting and support
Reviewed on Sep 07, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the performance. We primarily use Barracuda for our clients, and the whitelisting or blacklisting is very well implemented. Onboarding new clients takes only a few minutes. The solution is very fast and intelligent. Support via chat or the built-in AI solution also helps us very quickly. Office 365 can be seamlessly integrated. Also the AAD. Very practical. The price is also reasonable. We stick to this product!
What do you dislike about the product?
The design no longer meets the current standard
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The amount of spam and malicious emails that have reached the mailboxes so far. We benefit greatly from less support for our customers, thus saving a lot of time.
