Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup wins in 2021 CRN Products of the Year

As the end of 2021 approaches, the team at Barracuda is celebrating more than the holiday season and the upcoming new year. We’re also celebrating an exciting award win for Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup.

Last week, CRN announced the winners of the 2021 CRN Products of the Year, and Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup was the overall winner in the Data Protection and Management category. This follows CRN naming Cloud-to-Cloud Backup as a finalist in the 2021 CRN Tech Innovator Awards in November. Let’s take a closer look at what made Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup stand out from the competition.

CRN 2021 Products of the Year

Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup, which provides a fast, scalable, and resilient backup platform to protect data in Microsoft Office 365, was named the overall winner in the Data Protection and Management category of Products of the Year, beating out competitors such as Veeam, Axcient, Commvault, StorageCraft, and Zerto.

CRN Products of the Year is not an award vendors can apply for. The products are selected based on the expertise of the CRN editorial team and then voted on by solution providers who have real-life experience with the products and technologies. The fact that this win is based on input from our channel partners makes this win even more meaningful for us.

According to CRN: “Offering protection of data in Microsoft 365 apps including Teams and SharePoint, Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup runs natively in the cloud and offers simplified management—enabling easier monitoring of backups and rapid restoration of data.”

“With a cloud-native solution, you get the benefit of scale on your backup, and your solution is fully managed.

If we add new mailboxes, they get backed up automatically, no action required. That means we’re saving money and time, too — no need to manage or upgrade, no provisioning of new instances. That whole set of tasks is just gone.” — Ian Towner Infrastructure Services Technical Lead City of York Council
