The solution is used for cloud storage.

The product is fairly economical. The upload and download speed is good. It is consistent. The solution is easy to use. We can use S3 Browser to upload and download data efficiently.

The user experience must be improved. The product must have a feature similar to Azure Storage Explorer. The product must not rely on third-party providers.

I have been using the solution for two years.

I rate the tool’s stability an eight out of ten.

The tool is more focused on a one-to-one connection. It's not server-focused. It is for front-end users to make it easy for people to store and access S3. Around 20 people in our organization use the product. We use the tool on a daily basis.

We also use Azure Blob Storage.

The initial setup is very easy. We just have to install a small application on our desktop. We do not need the help of a technical team.

It's easy to share data between people. It's geared towards large datasets. SharePoint is for smaller files. However, Amazon S3 Glacier is for uploading and downloading a lot of data.

The product is very cheap.

We get two versions of the solutions. The amount of data we can upload on the free version is limited. The Pro version has more bandwidth. I recommend using the Pro version for more flexibility and speed. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We use Amazon S3 Glacier to provide secure and durable data archiving at a low cost compared to the standard storage options. I'm currently working with Azure Cloud, and I have done most of the migration from Amazon S3 Glacier to Azure Blob Storage.

Amazon S3 Glacier is used to store data, files, and required certificates.

Data retrieval, security, compliance, and storage archiving are the most valuable features of Amazon S3 Glacier.

The solution's cost optimization could be improved. The solution uses the monitoring storage cost, implementing cost-saving strategies for transitioning data to the Glacier storage classes and defining the appropriate retrieval options.

I have been using Amazon S3 Glacier for more than three years.

I rate Amazon S3 Glacier an eight out of ten for stability.

I rate Amazon S3 Glacier an eight out of ten for scalability.

I rate the solution's technical support seven and a half out of ten.

I have previously used Azure Blob Storage.

Amazon S3 Glacier's initial setup wasn't that hard, but it was challenging.

We have seen a return on investment with Amazon S3 Glacier. With Amazon S3 Glacier, the more you pay, the more you'll get. The resources that we pay for depend completely upon the client.

Amazon S3 Glacier has good pricing.

My organization uses the Azure cloud platform which is cheaper compared to Amazon S3 Glacier.

Amazon S3 Glacier was deployed on-cloud in our organization.

Overall, I rate Amazon S3 Glacier a nine out of ten.

We use the solution for storage. We store photos, attachments, and different objects.

You need a strategic approach. You also need to consider the technical abilities of the person utilizing the platform to fully understand it. 

Some things are learned as you use the platform. You need to consider what you want to store, how long you will store it, and its usefulness. You need to have a proper storage plan. While understanding the platform is crucial, you must also understand the business side because you must pay for the licenses and storage you use. It's about balancing the technical and business aspects of the tool.

Amazon S3 Glacier is easy to use. The platform is straightforward, and the interfaces are user-friendly and responsive. Even with a limited budget, you can train someone without an AWS certification to use it. With on-the-job training, you can ensure they understand what needs to be done to use the service.

The cost can be lower. Sometimes, users may access the platform, advertise it, and then receive a bill they cannot afford. It would be helpful if there were a policy where a budget owner could understand the costs associated with storing data and approve expenditures based on the project budget. Due to the retrieval options, SMMEs may be ignorant of the costs and cannot afford the platform.

The product is stable.

I rate the solution’s stability as ten out of ten.

It's pretty scalable. Yeah, it has potential if you have a demand, and they can meet it. They are perfect on their end, but you must also protect your infrastructure and data. There are some shortfalls or pitfalls that you need to ensure that you cover.

I rate the solution's scalability as ten out of ten.

The initial setup is straightforward because you use their dashboard and user interface. As long as you subscribe, it's easy to set up.

You need to comply with the requirements and ensure that you understand what it is that you need to do.

The product is expensive. They price you as you use it.

It works perfectly if you start to chat. You learn these things as you use it because it involves technical ability, pricing, and ensuring that you comply with government requirements.

Despite the speed limitations, the Amazon S3 Glacier performs well. As long as you have a network and store your data within your region, the data centers within EMA are quite responsive regarding data retrieval.

Overall, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

We use the product heavily. All our data is stored in it. We are using Delta Lake, which is built on the product. We have started using the solution for an app project. Some files and storage should not be in the hot area. It should go into Glacier. We are looking into some recycling policies.

We save money with the product. If some file is not frequently accessed, Glacier helps put things there. It is a fantastic product that works as expected.

We had some issues with the product’s stability. A couple of times, we faced outage issues that caused us problems. It happened one or two times.

I am using the solution right now.

The outage issue caused us a little bit of a headache, but it recovered soon, so that's fine.

We have a minimum use for the product, but I have confidence about the scalability of Amazon products. Our organization's infrastructure, DevOps, and database teams use the product.

I have not sought support. I have heard the team talking about support. We are on the enterprise level, so support is good. Up until now, we have been happy.

The initial setup is very straightforward.

The engineers, developers, and infrastructure team ensure the platform is good. We are a big company.

The solution is cost-effective.

I like Amazon very much. We are a billion-dollar company, and we use Amazon heavily. We will use the cycle policies to ensure all the files that are not accessed frequently are put somewhere. We are planning a big change in our organization to reboot our data. 

We will have more data segmentation by using different buckets. When this transition is finished, we will work more toward the different layers of storage. Overall, I rate the product a nine out of ten.

We're a tech company, so we use a variety of solutions, but S3 Glacier is what we currently use for the database. 

We use it both internally for our own projects and our clients. We host some projects on Azure and AWS, depending on client requirements.

It's mostly used by enterprises for hosting various solutions.

We get free credits from Amazon, and we like the overall stability. We haven't had to rely heavily on their customer success teams, which is a good sign.

With hyperscalers like Amazon, things are generally pretty smooth. As long as the product is stable, billing is clear, and we don't have issues, we're happy.

Billing issues can be a nightmare. It's tough reaching the right person to get them sorted out.

I have been using this product for about three years. 

It is easy to scale. That's a major reason we use both Azure and AWS. They're very scalable.

We have around 35 end users using this in our company. 

When we have to reach out to them, it becomes an issue. They can improve, but we don't need them frequently anyway.

We don't get the right people right away. They connect us to someone who doesn't know, and then it goes in a loop, and we have to be very patient to find the person who can actually solve our problem.

Positive

We use Microsoft Azure services. But the usage depends on the client or the purpose. 

Some enterprises are typically on Azure, while others prefer AWS. We're cloud-native, so we don't differentiate between the two, but it depends on the client's needs.

My tech team handled it. It was a matter of hours, not days.

One person should be enough.

We have seen an ROI. That's why we're using it. We see value in the return; otherwise, we wouldn't continue.

Mainly on the cost side, It's very easy to use, which leads to cost synergies. That's how we look at it.

If it were cheaper, I'd be happier. I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. 

It is a yearly basis license. There are some other services that are linked with it as well. 

Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. 

We use the solution for storing file objects.

The solution’s storage management is good and dynamic.

I have been using this solution for the past year. I’m currently using the latest version.

The product is highly stable. I rate it a perfect ten.

The solution is highly scalable. Not individual users, but a specific application is using it within our company. I rate its scalability a perfect ten.

The customer service and support is good.

The initial setup is straightforward. With a couple of clicks, you can set up the solution. First, create the S3 bucket and then get the URI. Our DevOps team mostly deals with this area.

We don't pay for licenses. We pay based on consumption data, considering how much data is stored.

I recommend the solution. It's an effective native solution. It should be the first choice for storing files in AWS. Overall, I rate the solution a perfect ten.
