"The product does save time for our company.""The most valuable feature is the ease of management and administration.""Very good at object retrieval.""MinIO can work with attributes and folders, and it has the ability to use a stream approach for files. I have moments that should work exclusively. It also has some management features you can use, like exclusive locks that you can perform on one record or a collection.""I like that if you have a problem, you can buy the home server. It is stable and robust.""Reliable erasure coding.""For starters, MinIO has a good user interface. You can access it through the browser and perform operations like creating the object.""The features that I have found most valuable with MinIO is its coding bit rot protection and how it distributes the workload over all the servers."

Cons
"It is a cloud-based environment and at times, it is not very simple to use.""Cloudian HyperStore needs to incorporate AI and predictive analysis. It would be helpful if the solution could analyze and predict how to manage data better. The end users should not have access to protected documents. They should be able to drop the documents. The capacity management dashboard can be better. We also want two-factor authentication using Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator as MFA. Hence, the user would access the console not just by logging in with a password and username but with third-party applications as well.""As it is an S3 solution with the same protocol as the one we have with AWS, having better integration with AWS will be beneficial."

More Cloudian HyperStore Cons →

"The tool’s pricing needs to improve. We also encountered challenges while deploying the tool in Kubernetes. The documentation also was not too great. We have currently deployed the solution in a stand-alone fashion.""Limited storage provided in the free version.""MinIO could use a time patch on it. It could also use better documentation for some languages like Python.""The monitoring capability is really bad and needs to be improved.""The solution should have high availability. Also, support should be quick.""The solution lacks documentation.""We had minor bugs occasionally.""The scalability is one of the limitations we have found. We are looking for another solution but they must provide the same characteristics, such as an affordable price and continuity."

    Reviews from Real Users

    MinIO stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Several major ones are its flexibility, integration options, and performance.

    Süleyman Fazıl Y., a senior software engineer at a tech services company, writes, “The most valuable features are that MinIO is open, it works on-premise, and is compatible with the Amazon industry which is great for finding compatible libraries in many languages which is very good for developers.”

    Rebecca S., CTO at NIASE, says, “MinIO is much improved over the prior solution, updates are simple to apply, and we anticipate that future capacity requirements will be easier to meet. Our customers are using this solution to retrieve tens of thousands of objects (documents and files) per hour, and MinIO seems to be able to keep up with it.”
