Featured Reviews

Vagner Martins - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhanced data security with seamless integration and static website capabilities
S3 is a great service offering numerous possibilities. It allows for storing objects and files of various types. I appreciate its capability to create static websites and integrate with services like CloudFront, EC2, and DynamoDB. Despite being focused on security, I leverage features such as cryptography and integration with CloudTrail.
Eric Popiel - PeerSpot reviewer
Good support, highly scalable, and a great cloud-like experience on-prem
Moving to a consumption model is highly desirable from the client side. everyone seems to be moving in that direction. It provides a cloud-like experience on-prem. It simplified it for the most part. When you look at a lot of the storage and historically how it's been done, you're doing a lot of forecasting, a lot of business justification, a lot of purchasing of hardware, and oversizing for growth, et cetera. The pay-as-you-go model is a much more simplified way of doing things. And it offers more flexibility. The scale capacity improves and simplifies the experience in terms of growth and performance. A lot of clients I work with have performance requirements. I work heavily in financial and healthcare segments and those need 24/7/365 performance with no downtime. GreenLake helped to reduce our operational expenses.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution easily connects with the cloud, hardware, or other services to move data."
"Amazon S3 is reliable."
"The tool helps us with data backup storage of payment files and helps us avoid issues with clients when we miss the data. For instance, in the payment file of my Google client, you can find details of one-to-one transactions like the payment information on the file header, payment ID, payment client ID, group headers, etc. We get these details into the file format of ISO which is the accepted format at JP Morgan & Chase. Once we get the file format, we process it through S3."
"The multi-zone replication is great."
"The most valuable feature of the product is storage classes."
"It's very well secured. We have S3 policies that allow you to write custom policies."
"The stability is very good."
"Cloud infrastructure is the most valuable feature."
"The ease of use, the reporting, and the setup are excellent."
"Today I get a better deduplication level compared to the previous generations. That means the price per gigabyte or terabyte is lower for me."
"The unified management experience has been great. That's a huge advantage."
"The scalability is very good."
"The feature I like is that I can create a template and apply it to multiple switches. I don't have to do the same task on every switch, and the same goes for access points. It's central management, with the features that come with central management."
"The uptime, the guarantee from HPE, and NVMe Storage are valuable."
"Moving to a consumption model is highly desirable from the client side. everyone seems to be moving in that direction."
 

Cons

"We would like Amazon to reduce the price of storage."
"The only pain point is migrating the life cycle policy because if someone is a newbie, they cannot easily create the life cycle policy."
"We would like to see improvement in the ability to moves files within this solution. At present the process is not straightforward, and requires us to download files to our micro service service before then uploading into the solution. In addition, the transfer bit rate for the process is very slow."
"It would be good if Amazon S3 had an API to get screenshots or video streaming continuously."
"You do need to get training on the setup process."
"Amazon S3 can improve by decreasing the overall costs."
"The tool's speed is comparatively low, especially considering that there are some other services where we can store data, like EBS."
"They should improve in the area of metadata curation."
"The marketplace should improve. There should be a more robust variety of vendors."
"You need two different boxes for block and file storage."
"With support, occasionally, we have a little trouble escalating things."
"The classifying of the data could be better."
"The solution could improve the integration with sustainability-related services. A lot of clients ask us about that."
"The debugging of devices could use improvement. Connection problems on devices as well."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is good."
"The license of Amazon S3 is based on volume, capacity, and time. The overall price of the solution could improve. The support has to be added if you want it at an additional cost."
"The cost of Amazon S3 could be better. As the number of data increases, you'll pay more for Amazon S3. It's around $200, which is okay, but my company uses it less often."
"The solution is fairly priced."
"The price of Amazon S3 should be reduced."
"The cost depends on the data we access."
"The pricing depends on your region and is reasonable."
"The pricing can be improved."
"Its price seems okay for us. It is what we expect for this kind of storage."
