A Flexible, scalable and high performance solution to protect data from edge to core to cloud
Our main challenge was deciding on the right capacity for expansion, but once we settled on two NAS servers with sixteen TB, things have been smooth. We haven’t faced major challenges, just the initial capacity decisions. We got good reviews from other partners before installing it. We haven’t had much hands-on experience since it’s under warranty and we rely on 24/7 support from the service provider. We handle any errors by monitoring and notifying the provider as needed.
