Overall Satisfaction with QNAP NAS

We use it for a file share, but the first reason is for backup. We have many installations, even in the data center of our cloud provider. For backup Virtual Machine (usually snapshot) and for our Oracle and Sqlserver production databases. We use Smb, NFS, i-SCSI directly attached to the machine (for disk quorum cluster), and so far nothing to complain about.
  • File share
  • Raid
  • Very friendly interface.
  • For our business it's more than enough.
  • Expandability
  • All the way that we can use it as NAS
  • Interface is very friendly so event non IT people can manage.
  • I cannot quantify, but it really saves a lot of money for backup.

Would you buy QNAP NAS again?

We save a lot of money using QNAP for the backup of Virtual machines. We installed a QNAP in the datacenter of our Cloud Provider and the cost of the backup and storage that we use is, at least, 1/10 of the cost that we had in the past. We can choose what kind of drives we can install, so if we want affordable we can use 5400/7200 hard drives, if we need speed we can use SSD drives.
