I appreciate that Nasuni offers an all-in-one solution that allows businesses to scale their file systems without any limitations. This is incredibly beneficial as it enables companies to retain their data even when they lack the resources or desire to handle retention maintenance manually. Nasuni ensures that data is accessible whenever and wherever needed, providing a sustainable, secure, and elastic alternative to traditional on-premises file servers.

The guidance from their Technical Account Managers (TAMs) is also noteworthy, facilitating a smooth setup process which, coupled with my experience, made the integration not at all difficult.
What do you dislike about the product?
When dealing with vast file systems, changes to permissions and migrations can be slow, and there isn't a good way for users to search for files, unlike Windows file servers that had search indexing capabilities.

Simplifies NAS with Advanced Features
What do you like best about the product?
I am thoroughly impressed with the Nasuni Management Console. It offers a centralized monitoring solution that allows me to check the health of all filers from a single location, eliminating the need to visit each edge individually. I find the Snapshot feature particularly valuable, as it enables me to restore files from older versions if users accidentally delete or overwrite them. This feature has been a favorite among users in my environment. The user interface is straightforward and easy to navigate, making the console user-friendly. I'm also impressed by Nasuni's Antivirus feature, which effectively detects unsafe files, blocks clients from saving risky file extensions, and generates reports of affected files. Another aspect I appreciate is the ability to connect the same volume through different edges, providing a reliable disaster recovery solution in case of technical failures. Finally, the setup was remarkably smooth due to the intuitive GUI and the support team's assistance, making the initial configuration seamless.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find that Nasuni could improve by setting up a simple automated reporting feature for sharing the edge status with the IT team via email. As a storage admin, I often have to manually check the NMC console for the status of the edge. If there were an option for an auto-generated report that could be scheduled, it would greatly enhance efficiency. Additionally, it would be beneficial to enable a volume used space report feature that could be scheduled on a monthly or weekly basis.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find Nasuni simplifies data management with centralized monitoring, restoring overwritten or deleted files, and blocking unsafe files with antivirus, enhancing data security and system reliability.
