Overall Satisfaction with Synology DiskStation

We use it primarily among our creative teams and content management teams. We have found it much faster and easier to manage than a typical Windows file share. It's super easy to transfer large files between users using Synology!
  • File storage
  • File backup
  • File transfer
  • Ability to set user permissions granularly on file levels
  • The UI feels a little too much like a desktop, I'd like to see a cleaner, more original interface
  • The mobile app is difficult to use when accessing files remotely.
  • Large file backup and transfer
  • Local file transfer via USB
  • Granular permissions by user and group
  • It's made it very easy for our creative and media teams to collaborate on content.

Synology DiskStation is well-suited for large file storage / transfer / backup. It's easy to add / retrieve content as an authenticated user on the network. We've used it to store media for a local ministry for backup and retention. There's a cloud backup plugin that we use to keep the data stored offsite.
