Hybrid Cloud Storage as NAS
What do you like best about the product?
Nasuni is positioned as intranet NAS leveraging the hybrid cloud storage caching tehchnology ensuring the immutable capability and ransonware protection & recovery.
What do you dislike about the product?
rasomware protection should have been atleast default bundled option. Access anywhere implementation is not easy or straight forward solution for Enterprise with strict internet exposing limitation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Nasuni is acting as Hybrid cloud storage reducing the intranet footprint, leverage the cloud storage as a backup with its immutable version feature.

Cloud based file system that just works!
What do you like best about the product?
Obviously the best feature of Nasuni is the ransomware protection, but the caching devices are very responsive. We have 17 CIFS shares and since we've migrated we've not had one complaint (knock on wood) about the solution being slow. In fact we've had a few users that have remarked that the response time is better.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, at this point I don't think I have any complaints with Nasuni yet. I've been very happy with the product, the technical support during migration and now we're in a steady state I can't think of anything that I haven't liked.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Nasuni helps me sleep at night knowing that if there's a ransomware attack that we can easily revert back to a point in time. Having the data in cloud to provide high availability is huge too.
Excellent File Server solution
What do you like best about the product?
The filers can be located in branch offices or headquarters and can be virtual machines.
What do you dislike about the product?
When creating a share on one filer, you need to create the share on the remaining filers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ease and quickness of restoring a user file or files. We have restored Gigs of data in a minute with a few mouse clicks.
Outstanding support from Nasuni both pre-sales and implementation
What do you like best about the product?
Nasuni have ensured that our on-boarding process has been as seamless as possible and their installation staff have been very understanding and helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
No downsides that we have experienced with the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have had issues with resourcing on-site storage. Nasuni has provided us with the ability to use the cloud to provide a seamless experience for our users.
Nasuni transforms file servers into a real cloud-based solution with great scale and performance!
What do you like best about the product?
There are several key points that really highlight Nasuni.
* Performance - local cache drive can be backed with NVME SSD's for great read/write speeds - typically users have no idea their data is being pulled from object storage such as AWS S3.
* Scalability - The ability to remotely connect any S3 bucket to any other filer around the world, taking advantage of AWS' backbone - allows you to split up workloads by edge appliance and not split the data in the bucket itself.
* Backup - When users need to restore files, even at a large scale, this can be done insanely quick using the management console.
* Customer support - They have some very talented and bright minds working for them. Working with support has always been great.

What do you dislike about the product?
A couple items to note:
* The management UI is good, but it could use some better functionality for bulk editing of items.
* Could use more performance metrics in the management console for self-troubleshooting.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I think Nasuni resolves the age old issue of file servers filing up, then having to buy more disks to expand. When using object storage such as AWS S3, you basically will have unlimited storage.
The other great convenience is the ability to quickly restore files at a large scale in case of a ransomware attack.

Helps in consolidating data and eliminating on-prem infrastructure
What do you like best about the product?
Snapshot backup is most valuable. It's quick and easy to use. It's controlled only by an administrator, which is very good. It takes 10 seconds to back up a spreadsheet of three or four megabytes
What do you dislike about the product?
Nasuni does not support different retention policies within the same volume, so you have to keep creating volumes for retention policies. When you create a new volume, it means you're starting from zero all over again. You can't move data between two volumes. You have to move them from your physical device to Nasuni or your cloud device to Nasuni.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's mostly for internal users. We use it for internal file sharing. We have moved our various departments, such as marketing, finance, and HR, to Nasuni. We started using it because of the StorSimple devices coming to an end of life. Microsoft announced that, so we considered Nasuni as the first option for internal file sharing of users.
Good product with great savings
What do you like best about the product?
We have been performing migrations for one of our clients from local data centre to Nasuni and it's been great going. Installation and configuration is simple. Does not need much space in DC and major advantage is cloud integration.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is morning which is not liked by me in the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data availability and lowering the cost of maintenance.
Over four years of daily use.
What do you like best about the product?
It mostly just works. Highly responsive and knowlegable support staff. The best way we've found to manage fileshares in the cloud. One of the most grainular snapshot systems around. I don't worry about backups anymore.
What do you dislike about the product?
After over four years of use there are a few things that could be improved with the UI. I could get into the weeds discussing this (and have with their sales engineers) but none of it is a show stopper. It does take a lot of CPU and Memory, also you have to use SSDs to get full performance out of it. But if you size your server correctly, it will perform well. Figure you'll want something like a Dell R750 with SSD RAID for each filer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having power & cooling sucking SANs on-site. Having to deal with backups and restores. All those SANs need maintaince contracts, the backup software needs to be kept current. With Nasuni all our data is safely off-site and in a DR situation it can be made available at another site within minutes. Since moving to Nasuni I've decommissioned hundreds of hard drives.
Centralized management solution for your data needs
What do you like best about the product?
The best way Nasuni helped us is it rediced a lot of man effort for our IT team to manage different forms of data accross different storage vendors and public clould.
What do you dislike about the product?
Well the management of data using Nasuni is easy but there is not enough talent available in the market to manage this independently. We have to rely on Nusani support on multiple ocations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Nasuni helped us managed data accoss multiple platforms as we have data scattered across muliple locations and storage solution of different OEMs, before Nasuni managing this was a hell of a task.

We had a large on premise storage environment ~50TB, and wanted to move this to the Cloud with an On-Premise footprint, this does a perfect job
