Barracuda Message Archiver: Examining Performance and Integration

Feb 3, 2025

Barracuda Message Archiver provides efficient email retention, compliance and e-discovery with seamless integration for on-premises and cloud environments. The barracuda message archiver console responds very delayed and sometimes we are also unable to see the uploaded PSTs. With Barracuda Message Archiver we are not able to import the users to assign the PSTs.
