Likelihood to Recommend	Impossible Cloud I would recommend Impossible Cloud to anyone looking for an affordable, easy-to-scale cloud backup solution. For us, it was super important that our data is stored in a GDPR-compliant setup, where we know where it is. Having different data centers in Europe keeps the latency low. So if anything happens, we can get our data back quickly. Finally, the support was super fast and helpful. RS Ronny Silver Head of IT Solutions Read full review	Wasabi, Technologies, Inc 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.

Pros	Impossible Cloud Easy setup. Fast support time. European sovereign GDPR compliant solution. RS Ronny Silver Head of IT Solutions Read full review	Wasabi, Technologies, Inc AWS S3 compatible APIs. Supports custom policies and sub-accounts. Much cheaper when compared to AWS S3. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Impossible Cloud UX could be a bit smoother. RS Ronny Silver Head of IT Solutions Read full review	Wasabi, Technologies, Inc Id love to see them add a FIPS compliant container to allow for secure storage for DoD. Incentivized Kyle Bergeron IT Manager Read full review
Usability	Impossible Cloud It's super fast to set up. Add your bucket, and you're basically good to go and can run your backup. Also, it connects to the common backup tools (in our case, Veeam), so we didn't have to change anything in our setup except the place where our data is actually stored.

Alternatives Considered	Impossible Cloud In the end, the most important thing for us was full control over our data and a European solution. With it (luckily for us) came a cheaper price tag and better speed. Finally, you are not a ticket in a support center, but a valued customer. We could really feel that in the way the Impossible Cloud support team helped us when we ran into an issue. RS Ronny Silver Head of IT Solutions 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Impossible Cloud We are saving money - cheap storage and no fees. We can run our backup tests and don't have to worry about fees. RS Ronny Silver Head of IT Solutions 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
