We performed a comparison between NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP and Wasabi based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Public Cloud Storage Services solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Multiprotocol is the most valuable because Amazon was not able to provide us with access to the same data from Linux and from Windows clients. That was our value proposition for CVO, Cloud Volumes ONTAP."
"The most valuable feature is its exceptional performance and storage efficiency."
"The stability has been really good."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of file storage."
"The fast recovery time objective with the ability to bring the environment back to production in case something happens."
"ONTAP has been very stable for us, specifically in the cloud environment. It allows us to have high availability as well as standalone systems if that's what we want within our specific workloads. Also, on-premise has been a very stable environment. We have very few outages and when we do, we work with support to get systems back online in a timely manner."
"The most valuable features are that it's reliable, simple, and performs well."
"If anything happens, their technical support will come onsite and fix it."
"Wasabi is an easy-to-use solution."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The tool is very user-friendly."
"We can store our videos on hot storage, allowing immediate access to them."
"Basically, I set Wasabi up and forget it. I'll monitor it every once in a while just to make sure that it's working correctly."
"The most valuable feature of Wasabi is the backups."
"The most valuable feature of Wasabi is its cost."
"The key feature, that we'd like to see in that is the ability to sync between regions within the AWS and Azure regions. We could use the cloud sync service, but we'd really like that native functionality within the cloud volume service."
"It would be fantastic if NetApp could offer a solution that's as user-friendly as Google Drive for seamless cloud storage integration."
"The automated deployment was a bit complex using the public APIs. When we had to deploy Cloud Volumes ONTAP on a regular basis using automation, It could be a bit of a challenge."
"The DR has room for improvement. For example, we now have NetApp in Western Europe and we would like to back up the information to another region. It's impossible. We need to bring up an additional NetApp in that other region and create a Cloud Manager automation to copy the data... I would prefer it to be a more integrated solution like it was in the NetApp solution about a year ago. I would like to see something like AltaVault but in the cloud."
"I would want more visibility and data analytics where we can see anomalies within the shares within the GUI."
"We have customers that are still using IBM mainframes and that very old SNA architecture from IBM. There are questions about how you interconnect the data on the mainframe side... But I don't know if it's worth it for NetApp to invest in developing products to include mainframes for a few customers."
"Cloud Volumes ONTAP's interface could use an overhaul. Sometimes you have to dig around in Cloud Manager a little bit to find certain things. The layout could be more intuitive."
"In the next release, I would like to see more options on the dashboard."
"The solution’s user reporting could be improved."
"The scalability could be improved."
"The scalability could improve."
"Having the ability to upload and download data using third-party apps such as Mega which can sync to the desktop would be excellent."
"Setting up users on the appliance should be improved."
"The solution must allow the extension of the retention period."
"I don't have enough experience to understand the nuances of where they might improve."
