Overall Satisfaction with TrueNAS

We've been using TrueNAS Core for a couple of years now and I can confidently say it's the best NAS solution we've found so far. Out of the box it supports all the file sharing protocols we need and use such as NFS and even has rsync server built in so that we can manage backups for all of our clients automatically. So far it's been great and I'd highly recommend their products to any of my customers, or other businesses.
  • File sharing support.
  • Ease of use.
  • Compatibility.
  • More metrics on built in dashboards.
  • Built-in software firewall (iptables, ufw, etc.) for cases where running TrueNAS in cloud environments without private networking.
  • File sharing.
  • RSync compatibility.
  • Reliability.
  • Thanks to TrueNAS' performance we've been able to implement low-cost backup storage space for our customers to ensure that they have options when a critical event occurs.

Yes

Did TrueNAS live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of TrueNAS go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy TrueNAS again?

Yes

For us, we have clients that have cloud servers with the likes of OVH and through their VRack solutions we can get high-speed private networking, which makes an ideal environment for TrueNAS to be used as a storage server for automated backups, however it is somewhat insecure out of the box if this private networking is not available due to the lack of firewalling and IP whitelisting.
