Find out what your peers are saying about MinIO, Red Hat, Dell Technologies and others in File and Object Storage."The cost was the main reason we chose to use this solution."
"The most valuable features are its scalability and Amazon S3 compatibility because we can move back and forth with a hybrid cloud."
"The tool has S3 capability. Its scalability is excellent. From a security and encryption perspective, the solution supports SSL encryption. It is a seamless solution offering data encryption, quality service, and security encryption."
"It is very durable and that is particularly important."
"The most valuable features I have found to be the auto-scaling feature and the interface."
"Technical support, from what I understand, is quite helpful and we speak with them regularly."
"Compute (App service, and virtual machine scale sets): The ability to manage Windows and Linus virtual machines."
"With the Azure solution, you can get more value from your cloud investment no matter what your future goals are. It depends on your level of familiarity with the cloud you are using or with your computing. Azure helps you with every stage of the cloud."
"Microsoft Azure is an optimized solution when we compare it to any other particular cloud solution."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the Access Management and the PIN modules."
"It was very user-friendly when setting up the virtual machines and console. It was an easy task for my team to create virtual servers and start replications."
"We have found the most valuable feature to be the pricing calculator."
"It is a cloud-based environment and at times, it is not very simple to use."
"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."
"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."
"The solution could improve by simplifying network management."
"When we are doing transfers of records in large amounts, for example, petabytes of data or few long datasets, the performance should not degrade as it does."
"The solution could improve by being more user-friendly."
"Technical support could be better. They need to be more responsive."
"There are always new features to add in terms of additional indicators, improving the looks of the dashboard and stuff. There are some dashboards that are not attractive, we are looking to make them fancier and nice-looking."
"Could be more user friendly; security features should be improved."
"Improvements are needed in Azure to enhance integration tools and support for effectively migrating and managing third-party dependencies."
"We need more customization and support for doing so."
