Likelihood to Recommend	Amazon AWS - 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Wasabi, Technologies, Inc Wasabi is just simple and easy to use. It incorprates well with Veeam and other backup solutions.

Alternatives Considered	Amazon AWS 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. Incentivized Judith Perez Brand Manager Read full review	Wasabi, Technologies, Inc Wasabi is a tiny bit more expensive than Backblaze B2 ($5.99 vs $5 per TB per month), and there are minimum storage size/time requirements (1TB, 3Mo), but Wasabi has free traffic each month up to the size of storage which can save you a lot of money.

Return on Investment	Amazon AWS 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 Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Wasabi, Technologies, Inc The cost savings from previous Cloud backup solution is over 70% Ease of backups - Incorporation with Veeam already in place Our biggest bottleneck for throughput is our on-prem storage offloading to Wasabi. COuldnt be happier with thier network bandwith. Incentivized Kyle Bergeron IT Manager Read full review
