Great way to quickly setup cloud based file repositories.

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of setup was one of the best things about utilizing AWS Storage Gateway in our production environment. We used a Stored Volume gateway in order to retain data local for quick access, and adding the VM into our VMware enviornment was quick and easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Increasing the size of Stored Volumes was a bit of a pain. Typically you had to restore from a previous snapshot onto a larger disk on your VM. On large volumes in environments with slow internet connections, this will result in long periods of exposure where you are not getting snapshots of your data for backup retention.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before implementing the AWS Storage Gateway, we were not backing up data off-site. Following the 3-2-1 best practice, we utilized the AWS Storage Gateway to backup our critical data off-site on EBS snapshots.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend carefully sizing your volumes with the AWS Storage Gateway, especially if you plan to use Stored Volumes. Increasing the size of these types of volumes leaves you exposed for a minimum of a period of a few hours to potentially a few days, depending on your environment.

What do you like best about the product?
One of the most helpful things that AWS Storage Gateway helps us out with is keeping all of our data storage in one place. Usually, it is not a hard thing to do, most of the times you already are set with what you use for your teams storage, but it's nice that it connects with the other parts AWS has to offer, so there is less confusion there.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the documentation and help to learn this was a bit better. They have decent documentation on how to get things started and working, but of course they always think in the way of a perfect world where things work and don't go wrong. I often find myself looking online from other websites like Stack Overflow, in order to find a way to get things working. It is annoying and it would be nice if they just organized their documentation better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem we are able to solve using AWS Storage Gateway is that it is keeping our data all in one spot that is easy to grab, manage, and keep secure. We have seen the benefits of this through it saving us time. It's been nice having it for the most part.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It could have better documentation.

What do you like best about the product?
AWS Storage Gateway is a hybrid cloud storage service that gives you on-premises access
to virtually unlimited cloud storage. Customers use Storage Gateway to simplify storage
management and reduce costs for key hybrid cloud storage use cases.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is limited to AWS only.
Which means you must have knowledge of AWS. Also, Initial setup could be simplified and that would make the user experience better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The solution gives us the ability to move large amounts of data to the cloud and it gives us on-
premises connectivity. Additionally, the storage can be shared from the cloud to on-premise.
