    Hitachi Vantara
    • [Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) is] well suited for needs requiring a highly secure, multi-tenant on-premise object store.
    • Exceeds expectations with respect to object level attributes and permissions
    • Has excellent S3/HS3 REST API feature set
    • Situations which require versioning and proven Immutability (certified by Governments)
    - Expensive to use for general file storage publishing where meta data, compliance, retention, versioning are unnecessary.

    Wasabi is just simple and easy to use. It incorprates well with Veeam and other backup solutions. The cost savings alone is enough to make anyone switch. Plus thier reliability has been on great. We havent experienced any down time or issues since converting out cloud backup solution to Wasabi.

    Cons
    Hitachi Vantara
    • Cost structure is by capacity and is expensive
    • Some access settings are mutually exclusive for performance (REST vs. CIFS)
    • QoS by Tenant requires use of external ADC (Hitachi suggested and sold us Pulse Secure) and their support on this product offering is not up to their normally high standard

    My company has close ties with Hitachi. NetApp chargeback was more per Gig and for cost saving purposes, we had to choose HCP.

    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
    Hitachi Vantara
    • Best on premise solution of its' kind that encapsulates all our needs
    • ROI has been positive but it does raise questions at renewal time in terms of cost/GB vs other 2nd tier storage types

    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.
