Overall Satisfaction with Synology DiskStation

Used as an inexpensive way to add storage to servers and also for backup space. It also backs up all our O365 data.
We have also used it in other locations to replace servers completeley and to function as a Domain.
  • Backup O365 - OneDrive & Sharepoint
  • Simple to setup iSCSI for additional server storage
  • Replication between Synology for off-site backups
  • mobile device backups
  • Reliability

  • Cost
  • Inexpensive server space equals saving money not having to purchase new server
  • Reliable backups
  • Low cost virtualization
These are very similar products. QNAP is known for better high end performance. I really like the Synology interface. It makes it very easy to use. There are so many applications that are available that expand the functionality significantly.

We use it in the office and I also own one myself. We have setup multiple clients with Synology DiskStation and it has met or exceeded our expectations. It's great for eliminating servers at remote locations, Syncing data between locations and a very inexpensive way to free up space from servers. Additionally we have used it for server backups using built-in MS Server Backup, Acronis, StorageCraft, etc.
