Overall Satisfaction with Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service)

We are using Amazon S3 as an online repository for online backups. This addresses the needs of having data stored offsite with multiple layers of redundancy.
  • Security - S3 is great at encrypting traffic at rest and in transit.
  • Integration - S3 works great with multiple applications which is great for us since we don't have to be married to a partciluar software solution for online backups.
  • Billing - Easy to read and straight forward for clients.
  • Ease of use - Pretty difficult to setup if you aren't in the industry. Not something a notice user can setup without spending some time with it.
  • We reduced the amount of money we were spending to store massive amounts of data in the cloud.
  • We were able to digitize all of our paper documents and store them in the cloud which helped us gain some office space back.
S3 is much cheaper than the alternatives. And it's very easy to set up the billing.
S3 is well suited for anyone that wants to store data in the "cloud" and not be so expensive. This is beneficial for individuals that have a lot of data to store.
