MinIO Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Data Scientist at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees4.5I find MinIO to be a suitable locally-hosted object storage system similar to Amazon S3. While its performance is satisfactory for mid-sized datasets, I wish for a more accessible subscription model for smaller data needs and enhanced open-source bugging tools.
Head of Data Science center of excellence at Ameriabank CJSC3.5We use MinIO as a cloud storage solution for our data science team, valuing its S3 API integration and ease of use. However, performance issues with I/O capabilities affect usability during extensive data operations, especially with big data.
Vice President, Artificial Intelligence at DLytica Inc.4.0My company utilizes MinIO primarily for storage as an Amazon S3 alternative, benefiting greatly from its hybrid environment capabilities. Despite minor installation challenges with OpenShift, the solution saves time, although ROI specifics are unclear since we use its open-source version.

Senior Operation Manger at Thai Trade Net4.0I appreciate MinIO's stability and robustness, especially its ability to integrate with another connector. However, I believe it needs high availability and faster support. Overall, it's user-friendly, providing easy deployment.
Founder & CEO at Unikrew Solutions4.0We use MinIO to manage document versioning and video KYC recordings for loan processes. Its easy integration and features like versioning and role management are valuable, but pricing, Kubernetes deployment, and documentation need improvement. Deployment is currently standalone.
