Reviews from Real Users
Zadara is a highly effective solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. Two major advantages it offers are its extensive suite of cloud solution integrations and its object storage capability.
Steve H., the chief technology officer at Pratum, writes, “One of the most valuable features is its integration with other cloud solutions. We have a presence within Amazon EC2 and we leverage computer instances there. Being able to integrate with computing, both locally within Zadara, as well as with other cloud vendors such as Amazon, is very helpful, while also being able to maintain extremely low latency between those connections.”
Mauro R., the CEO of Momit SRL, says, “The object storage feature is wonderful. With traditional storage, you have a cost per gigabyte that is extremely high or related to the number of disks. With Zadara Storage Cloud, you have a cost per gigabyte that you can cut and tailor to your needs independent of the number or size of the disks.”

| Author info | Rating | Review Summary |
|---|---|---|
| IT Technical Architect at AVALIS | 4.0 | I use Zadara primarily for large-scale storage, finding its troubleshooting feature particularly valuable post-update due to the simplified management. Despite difficulties with CLI during setup, it effectively reduces costs and time by approximately fifty percent. |
| Cloud System Engineer at cloud251 | 4.0 | Our customers use Zadara for research and development environments, and while its storage management and user-friendliness are valuable, its pricing is high without expected ROI. We are considering AWS for more cost-effective solutions. Improvements in AI capabilities are suggested. |
| Vice President, Head of Infrastructure, Information Systems Group at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees | 3.5 | I use Zadara for non-critical storage, utilizing both block storage and NAS capabilities. Firmware upgrades could be less disruptive, and real-time synchronous replication would be a plus. I've moved to other vendors but haven't tried Huawei yet. |
| CEO at Momit Srl | 5.0 | As a managed service provider, I find Zadara Storage Cloud simplifies operations with multi-protocols, offering agility, cost savings, and excellent 24/7 support. Despite being late on auto-tiering, its scalability and tenant isolation are highly valued. |
| Chief Information Officer at a tech services company with 11-50 employees | 5.0 | Zadara delivers highly reliable, scalable iSCSI storage as a service, offloading workloads and enabling elastic, zero-downtime upgrades. Its stability and support are excellent, but I desire a standard iSCSI over VPN solution. |
| Platform and Infrastructure Manager at a tech services company with 1,001-5,000 employees | 4.5 | As a disaster recovery company, Zadara is crucial for our storage, offering flexible, cost-effective, pay-as-you-go solutions. Its unified platform and seamless cloud integration deliver improved performance and significant savings. Setup was easy, and support excellent, though the management interface could improve. |
| CTO at Pratum | 5.0 | Zadara significantly improved our data storage and access, enabling on-demand scaling and better cloud integration with low latency. Their managed service reduced overhead and costs, delivering 100-200% performance gains. I'd like more proactive patch communication. |
| CTO at a tech services company with 51-200 employees | 5.0 | Zadara's flexible, tiered storage and pay-as-you-grow model enabled our cloud business entry. It facilitates services like BaaS/DRaaS, offering significant revenue, reduced risk, and strong support, despite potential long-term cost concerns. I highly recommend it. |
