Amazon Drive (discontinued) vs. Amazon FSx

Amazon Cloud Drive is a fantastic backup solution for storing your digital files on the web, but if you want to manage, tweak, organize or otherwise maintain those files after they have reached the cloud, the experience immediately begins to suffer. This is especially noted when major competitor products like Microsoft and Dropbox offer similar services at similar prices, but offer far better interfaces for file management.

- For any enterprise-grade storage, this is the best option. - EDA workloads are very strong with Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP and NetApp's FlexCache technologies. - Random read workloads such as OLTP are awesome on Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP. - File Services are the best in class on FSxN. - DR sites from ONTAP on-premises are amazing.

• Amazon Drive automatically detects photos and videos in specific folders (that you choose). It will add them to Drive without any action from me.
• There is a desktop app where you can access all of your files (in addition to web-based access).

• Less storage than Google Drive, Google offers 15GB of free space - vs. Amazon's 5GB.
• Also, unlike with Google Drive, you can't back up your work with Amazon Drive ( I also use Google Drive, since I have a Gmail account).
• A lot more expensive than Google Drive, which is 1.99/month...but they are more in line with Dropbox pricing.

• Advance Matrix

The system is very easy to use and it's use of apps for almost all devices and hardware makes it even easier to manage and store photos and documents. I highly recommend this as an easy to use solution for novices!

It is safe but has little added value.

Overall great software to use for file share, storage, and collaboration. Its security is great and the user management is spot on. The only thing that makes me dock it a point is that the device management as a subset of user management is kind of clunky. It hasn't been an issue yet, but it could compromise security in the future. Overall, would recommend

Amazon Drive Cloud has the advantage of being backed by one of the companies that has had the highest growth in recent years: Amazon. That gives us security and has been the main reason for us to trust this product. We believe that the security systems of this company are good enough to be quiet while our files are stored on their servers

I have not worked with other reliable and powerful platform that is as reliable as this product. This platform has given us room to concentrate on more productive activities leaving our data under a safe system. It automates file transfer and saves time in uploading documents across all team members. It interlinks all our applications systems to enhance teamwork and increase production.

• It slowed us down at first since we went from purely agile to document based then agile.
• It is easy to use so even non-developers can access code snippets which they wouldn't know how to access on github.
• It has a lot of features we don't have a use for in our business.

Incentivized

• It improved our TCO by optimizing storage costs between SSDs and S3
• It speeded our TTM with speedy deployment and orchestration
• It removed needed expertise from our engineers
