Scality ARTESCA vs. Vultr vs. Wasabi Object Storage

When high availability and keeping sensitive information safe are top priority Scality is a great option and has good features that make it ideal for these type of applications. For small companies with limited resources to administer extensive systems Scality would not be a good match. It takes people dedicated to this platform to keep it functioning at its best.

Vultr is amazing for anyone who needs a server and wants to spend time taking care of it, or for someone who wants in on it. WordPress Minecraft kids can use Votr. The scenario is not as appropriate for the people who do not have as much technical knowledge and capacity and don't want to invest in it, not because of Votr itself, but because VPS is not kids' play. Even though we have a Minecraft server and they're quite easy, there will come a time when, if you put your business infrastructure inside Vultr or any VPS, you need to take care of it. Otherwise, it will have a problem.

If you have a huge collection of files where they are unlikely to change over time, like videos and photos, then Wasabi is a great place to back things up.

• It has a good evolutionary trend to stay alongside AWS as a leader.
• The web-based Supervisor GUI and Grafana statistics allow you to drill down into historical data in many ways.
• Easy for the end user to use.
• The system works so well that we now use it for scalable file system storage and disk-to-disk backups.

Incentivized

• The uptime is perfect . If there are any downtimes it is well informed and its in non - production hours to ensure that the systems are not hit
• Accessibility and the dashboard is amazing where you have full control over the VPS system.
• The flexibility of OS on which to create your VPS is also amazing .

• AWS S3 compatible APIs.
• Supports custom policies and sub-accounts.
• Much cheaper when compared to AWS S3.

• From my limited experience, I have not seen anything that needs to be improved. I have found the product to be easy to use.

Incentivized

• the ability of increasing a specific configuration without the need of upgrading the whole plan, for example i might need to add more memory but i'm satisfied with my current processors and hard disk capacity (or vise versa)
• Solving the problems of taking an image to the server if the server capacity (hard disk) is bigger than 1TB (which i'm currently facing a big problem because of that)

• Id love to see them add a FIPS compliant container to allow for secure storage for DoD.

Just a great product with no bells and whistles, which is the advantage. We spend very little time learning and using Vultr and more time using the systems we have in Vultr to complete our tasks. Not having to worry about the IT overhead is huge and saves a great deal of time

As an organization, it took us a while to understand the shift from a traditional black box SAN to software-defined storage, but now we are much more certain of what this means. The time invested and the resources were not very high, thanks on the one hand to the technical support and on the other to the coherence and good development of the platform.

easy to use and configure. great bang for the buck. I need an affordable solution to host in the cloud data from systems installed at our client's site with the ability to drill down and change the configuration remotely. Vultr enabled us to do that in an efficient and affordable way.

I have seen Scality in the office meeting with our VP and get the feeling that they are here to support us.

Vultr makes it easy to contact technical support. The techs are very competent. In a number of occasions they have bounced the responsibility back to me when they could have saved us all time and heartache by simply implementing the solution directly

Vultr implementation seemed based on open-source tools and basic cloud principles - some things were more complicated to do compared with more developed cloud providers, but on the other hand it was more extensible by open-source tools.

In reality, it did not become a substitute for AWS, since it allowed us to maintain a much more compact and rigid system by taking advantage of the support and evolutionary trend that Scality has and keeping AWS as a leader.

Vultr has better support and competitive pricing. The network is solid and globally deployed. IP reputation is clean, and security is tight. Ease of use and documentation is really good. User experience has been the best I ever experienced. Low stress, reliable hosting I would recommend to anyone. It helped me easily scale and expand my business.

Azure was too expensive for a cold solution. While it was backed up across 3 different data centers, it wasnt worth the cost. Google cloud is comparable in price, but Google is Google. And they arent good for DoD backups as your data could end up in a foriegn datacenter.

• We have had a positive ROI.

• Moving from Cloudways to Vultr (with GridPane) has saved us over $100 per month.
• Placing servers near customer's clients is invaluable. Customers notice.
• Wordpress performance on Vultr servers is great. We've had reduced TTFB from Cloudways in the region of 60-80%.

• 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.
