Useful for businesses to archive their information
I don't use the tool directly. Based on what my team says, from one to ten, if one is difficult and ten is easy, I rate the product's initial setup phase as a nine. A technical person took care of the product's installation phase. The solution is deployed on the private and public clouds. The tool is majorly deployed on a private cloud. I use the cloud services from Microsoft Azure. The solution can be deployed in a period of two years. For deployment in the infrastructure, we had five people who are infrastructure specialists. About twenty people needed development, and the team consisted of analysts and specialists. For infrastructure, there were five people as specialists for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Though we use too much of Azure, OCI is the biggest product for our company. Azure is managed by a medium number of people. There are five people to take care of the clouds.

Quotes from Members

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

Cons

"Cost-wise, it is not an affordable tool if you allocate space, and try to use it some other day."
"Oracle Cloud Object Storage needs to have an additional bucket for security."
"Sometimes, there are glitches with applying policies. Even when the policy is correct, it might not work consistently. We need to troubleshoot to see if it's a user error or if the policy itself needs adjustment. It usually works after refreshing, but that inconsistency is a minor complexity."
"The solution should provide more customization and the possibility of doing more manual tasks."
"The solution needs to add an archive function."
"It's already fast, but still, they could improve the speed."
"We cannot use the product with other brands."
