Feature set

Glockapps offers a broad suite of tools extending beyond just DMARC, providing a holistic view of email deliverability. Their DMARC reporting gives us detailed insights into authentication failures for SPF and DKIM, helping us pinpoint issues affecting our sending reputation. The platform is adept at identifying legitimate email sources and flagging potential spoofing attempts.
Beyond DMARC, Glockapps excels in spam testing and content analysis, allowing us to proactively test how our emails will perform across various mailbox providers before hitting send. This includes monitoring IP blocklists (blacklists) and assessing sender reputation, which are crucial for maintaining good inbox placement. Their focus is clearly on ensuring emails reach their intended destination.
Barracuda Domain Fraud Protection, in contrast, is primarily focused on protecting an organization's brand from email-based attacks and domain spoofing. It provides comprehensive DMARC services as part of its broader Barracuda Email Protection suite, helping enforce DMARC policies to prevent unauthorized use of our domains. We use it to ensure that only authorized senders can send email from our domain.
While deeply integrated into the Barracuda ecosystem, its core strength lies in its ability to detect and block malicious emails impersonating our brand. It provides reporting specifically tailored to identify and mitigate domain fraud, offering a specialized layer of security. Its features are geared towards larger organizations seeking robust brand defense within an existing security framework.

User experience

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
From our perspective, Glockapps offers a feature-rich dashboard that, while powerful, can feel a bit dense for newcomers. It presents a wealth of data on email deliverability, DMARC reports, and spam test results, which we find incredibly valuable. However, a new user might need some time to parse through all the insights and leverage its full potential effectively.
Despite the initial learning curve, once we got familiar with the interface, navigating and setting up automated tests became straightforward. The detailed reports are well-structured, allowing us to quickly identify issues with SPF, DKIM, or content, and then take action. Its robust functionality outweighs the slightly steeper onboarding compared to simpler tools.
Barracuda Domain Fraud Protection's user experience is largely dictated by its integration into the broader Barracuda Email Protection platform. This means if we are already using other Barracuda products, the DFP module fits seamlessly into an existing workflow, making it simple to manage. The interface is clean and focuses on actionable insights related to domain fraud.
While highly effective for its purpose, we've noted that the overall Barracuda suite, including DFP, can sometimes introduce a slight network lag. This isn't always noticeable, but it's a trade-off for the comprehensive protection. For those already in the Barracuda ecosystem, the DFP component is intuitive, but for a standalone DMARC user, it might feel like part of a larger, more complex security solution.
Which product has the best support

Support

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
Our experience with Glockapps support has been a mixed bag. While we've received prompt answers via live chat and found calls with certain individuals, like Olexandra, to be very helpful and informative, there have been instances where reaching a human by phone proved difficult, often leading to an answering machine.
This can be a point of frustration, especially when dealing with urgent deliverability issues. However, the online resources and detailed explanations within the platform itself do mitigate some of the need for direct support. For those willing to use chat or email, the support quality is generally good, but phone accessibility could be improved.
Barracuda Domain Fraud Protection's support is typically aligned with Barracuda's overall enterprise-grade support framework. We've heard positive feedback, with IT specialists reporting that their customer service is extremely responsive. This level of support is crucial for businesses that rely on uninterrupted email security.
Given that it's part of a comprehensive security suite, Barracuda's support often caters to complex deployments and integrations, providing expert assistance when needed. This is a significant advantage for larger organizations that require robust and timely technical assistance for their email infrastructure.

Suitability

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
Glockapps is best suited for organizations primarily focused on optimizing email deliverability and ensuring their marketing or transactional emails reach the inbox. This includes marketing agencies, SMBs, and individual email marketers who need granular insights into spam filter placement, content issues, and sender reputation.
For MSPs, Glockapps offers features like DMARC reporting for unlimited domains, which can be valuable for managing multiple client domains. However, its overall focus is less on broad cybersecurity suites and more on dedicated email performance. Enterprises might find it useful as a supplementary tool for deliverability, but not as a primary all-encompassing security platform.
Barracuda Domain Fraud Protection is ideal for mid-market to enterprise-level organizations that prioritize brand protection and already use, or are considering, the broader Barracuda Email Protection suite. It's designed for environments where domain spoofing and phishing attacks are significant threats, requiring robust DMARC enforcement as part of a larger security strategy.
MSPs and resellers can leverage Barracuda's partner programs to offer DFP as part of their comprehensive security services to clients. While it effectively solves domain fraud for SMBs, it's typically acquired as part of a larger security bundle, which might be more than what a small business solely focused on DMARC reporting needs. It excels in environments where integrated security is paramount.

Drawbacks and what to watch out for

Glockapps' drawbacks often center around its payment and support policies, with some users reporting unexpected price changes and challenges reaching human support. Barracuda Domain Fraud Protection, while effective, has been noted for a potential slight network lag, and it isn't available as a standalone product, requiring investment in a broader security suite.
We have pulled the average ratings from G2 for each product, and also included the most recent negative reviews for each product in full. Positive reviews tend to have less detail and have a higher chance of being fraudulent, so negative reviews are a better signal for your decision.

Ridiculous payment confirmation policy
What do you like best about GlockApps?I used to use this app all the time, unfortunately their policies have made it unusableWhat do you dislike about GlockApps?Was asked to provide bank statements and a photo ID to buy an upgraded plan. Totally over the line in terms of privacy and unnecessary for a piece of software.What problems is GlockApps solving and how is that benefiting you?Not email deliverability

Excellent protection for a mid-sized non-profit.
What do you like best about Barracuda Domain Fraud Protection?Our school for autistic adults has benefitted immensely from the Barracuda products we use for cybersecurity, and their Domain Fraud Protection is an excellent addition to the essentials suite. It is relatively inexpensive compared to competitors and provides comprehensive DMARC services which protect our brand from being digitally impersonated and used to launch attacks. This was a real problem for us prior to purchasing Barracuda DFP, but has not been a worry in the 7+ years since we installed the software. Our IT specialist reports that their customer service is extremely responsive and that the software itself is simple to manage. Highly recommended.What do you dislike about Barracuda Domain Fraud Protection?The only downside we've experienced to Barracuda Domain Fraud Protection is a slight network lag. This has not been too noticeable, however, and the extra protection has been well worth the additional system load.What problems is Barracuda Domain Fraud Protection solving and how is that benefiting you?We used to suffer domain spoofing attacks multiple times a year, but Barracuda Domain Fraud Protection has successfully stopped virtually all of these kinds of attacks since we began using it on our network in 2015.

Price Hike, Increasing Costs by 400-500%

Good Software, immoral practice
What do you like best about GlockApps?Good software with great email delivery analysis. To be able to test on a freemium and see if it land into the inbox of Gmail, Outlook and other accounts is great. The analysis feature detects most of the issues.What do you dislike about GlockApps?Their email delivery consulting service is a scam, they advertise a money-back guarantee, and during the consultation, they only try to upsell you instead of giving the right solution. They don't provide the invoice for the purchase, and even when asked multiple times, they ghost you as soon as you request the money-back garantee. Also, their email delivery analytics does not detect link issues with Microsoft accounts.What problems is GlockApps solving and how is that benefiting you?It help detect email delivery issue, used it to detect why email did not landed into microsoft account. I wasn't able to find the real reason with Glockapps but it helps to know if the email were delivered or not into Microsoft email accounts (hotmail, outlook,...)
