Find out what your peers are saying about Nasuni, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Panzura and others in Cloud Storage Gateways."The deduplication engine. Right now, we're at about 10.5 to 11 times deduplication of our backup data."
"The solution is very easy to use and it offers great support."
"It's pretty simple. Once you set it, it goes; and then the idea of being able to get it to the cloud very quickly. It's kind of a set-it-forget-it."
"Its initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is easy to use and integrate with whichever operating systems you use, providing you with a complete view, especially when you plan to migrate to some other operating system."
"The solution can be used for all Office 365 applications."
"Most importantly is having that island into that datacenter, and being able to address things in the same console. Thus, it is irrelevant where it's stored."
"You can store backups for a while."
"Its most valuable features are the collaboration, the file snapshots, and the data protection the solution provides."
"I really want to partner it with the SnapCenter. We haven't implemented that yet. We're upgrading all of our stuff to the ONTAP 9, which you had to have."
"It's a good product, but it's becoming outdated and moving to their other primary architecture."
"More capacity with the basic model of the AltaVault would probably help out."
"The initial setup phase of the tool was difficult."
"It would be nice if the solution was more complete. Many customers are looking for a single solution or silo that they can manage everything from. It would be nice, instead of having different products, if everything a client needed was in one solution."
"What could be helpful is different user base authentication so then maybe we could allow different customers to point to a single appliance and they only see the backups and things that they have."
"I would like to see more web support."
"More than a 500 volume limit. At the moment, it only supports up to 500 volumes for SnapMirror and that's a problem. We've got 750, so a larger limit for volume replicas for SnapMirror."
"It should be easy for people not on the network to connect and access their files."
