Find out what your peers are saying about Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft, Google and others in Public Cloud Storage Services."The solution is stable."
"Amazon S3 Glacier is a very cheap storage, where we store infrequently used data."
"The solution is secure."
"Amazon S3 Glacier is a highly scalable and available solution."
"I find Amazon S3 Glacier valuable for storing various documents like purchase orders, standard documents, and drawings."
"The main advantage of Glacier is its low cost. It is incredibly cheaper than other storage options, especially for objects you don't access frequently. Glacier would add value if you have a staging area for objects you only need to access occasionally. Since we have data in terabytes between S3 buckets, we can significantly reduce our storage and cost footprint by using Glacier."
"The tool is simple to use and not very expensive."
"It is the most feature-rich platform."
"The NetApp Cloud Volume Services for AWS has been helping migrate workloads onto the cloud. We did migrate a couple of native applications into AWS using this, and it was helpful."
"The product needs to improve cloud security."
"There is room for improvement in handling GDPR compliance better. GDPR is about personal data protection and retention. It would be great if S3 Glacier could handle compliance items related to this, especially with upcoming legislation like the California law, which restricts data storage time and allows users to request data deletion."
"The learning curve is very high."
"The product is difficult to use."
"The technical support has room for improvement."
"Amazon S3 Glacier could be more secure."
"Technical support needs improvement. Previously, even though we had premium and enterprise support, the response time would be quicker if we ran into issues, but now it is slowed down. The analytical dashboard feature, like the CloudOps dashboard, should be included in the next release of the Amazon S3 Glacier."
"I believe the usage reporting could be simplified, particularly for billing purposes. Overall, I find Amazon S3 Glacier's reporting system somewhat confusing compared to other hyperscalers in the market."
"We'd like the solution to be less expensive and offer lower latency."
