Find out in this report how the two Public Cloud Storage Services solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the automated replication of the data."
"The most valuable features of Amazon S3 are its storage capabilities, security, and integration."
"Great for storing all types of data."
"An important feature of the Amazon S3's system is that it offers encryption while the files are at rest. This is crucial in ensuring the security of the files being restored and addressing potential security risks. That's what I would emphasize."
"The integration with Cloudfront helps in fetching the static phase and default phases in case our actual service is down."
"Uploads are secure and occur instantly."
"Amazon S3 is reliable."
"I used Amazon AWS/S3 solution to prove my concept before deploying it on real hardware. It was a great experience and was really scalable."
"The solution is easy to use, share, and manage."
"The most valuable features of Nutanix Unified Storage are the unified dashboard and the ease of administration."
"The customer service executives of all Nutanix products are active and responsive."
"What I like most about Nutanix Files Storage is the way it makes copies of the data. The solution also has high availability, which is excellent. Another valuable feature of Nutanix Files Storage is self-service, so users won't have to depend on the IT team much."
"The most valuable feature is the easy interface."
"Nutanix Objects is reliable."
"Nutanix has excellent product documentation available on their portals, written in simple, easy-to-understand language."
"Nutanix Unified Storage is easy to use. New employees are able to come up to speed fairly quickly with regard to the day-to-day administration processes."
"We would like to see improvement in the ability to moves files within this solution. At present the process is not straightforward, and requires us to download files to our micro service service before then uploading into the solution. In addition, the transfer bit rate for the process is very slow."
"Amazon S3 could improve by providing some type of storage notification."
"Amazon S3 could improve some of the features, such as indexing, or we should have more information about all the data stored in a single place. This way we can see what data resides where instead of going in different buckets, file locations manually, or searching. An index would be nice, allowing us to directly go to a location to use the date."
"In the next release, I think that it would be good to have wizards that would update into specific applications, for example, a one-touch configuration in Pagemaker."
"Amazon S3 could improve by having more frequent updates."
"The pricing and licensing are pretty complex."
"The tool needs to improve its flexibility in support."
"The solution's pricing should be modified to automatically expand storage based on prior usage."
"We have issues with software updates occasionally."
"Customer service is more difficult to call and they do not responding as much as, for example, DataCore. It's not the same level of satisfaction compared to DataCore. Responses could be faster."
"With all of the Nutanix equipment, the licensing is expensive. We operate in the enterprise space, but we're a midsized company. At times, the price tag is a little bit shocking for a company with only 35 employees."
"Security is an area for improvement. When there are vulnerabilities, there needs to be a faster approval process. The solution needs to automatically target the vulnerabilities and not waste too much time."
"The only thing I would say is missing for us it is FTP protocol compatibility."
"The solution should keep adding new features to be competitive in the market."
"The interface could be improved."
"The feature request I have is for the consistent improvement of how user account permissions are assigned in Nutanix Unified Storage."
