We performed a comparison between Amazon S3 and Wasabi based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 features of Amazon S3 are the performance and hibernation data options. Additionally, there is a feature that provides faster website access that is helpful."
"The most valuable features of Amazon S3 are the global availability, resiliency, and ease of access control."
"The most valuable feature is the storage."
"We have cold storage here, and I think that's useful. When it comes to commercialization, it's cheaper to put data that you won't be using into the data storage. You only use a little bit of the data needed each day for your transition, so you pay less."
"The most valuable features of Amazon S3 are its storage capabilities, security, and integration."
"Amazon S3 is easy to use and it is beneficial to use the CLI to make the backups. Since I use the CLI I do not have to do it on a web portal which is a big advantage because everything can be automatized. Automation can be done very well in Amazon S3."
"The tool helps us with data backup storage of payment files and helps us avoid issues with clients when we miss the data. For instance, in the payment file of my Google client, you can find details of one-to-one transactions like the payment information on the file header, payment ID, payment client ID, group headers, etc. We get these details into the file format of ISO which is the accepted format at JP Morgan & Chase. Once we get the file format, we process it through S3."
"Feature-wise, Amazon S3 is the cheapest and it's reliable."
"We can store our videos on hot storage, allowing immediate access to them."
"The tool is very user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature of Wasabi is the backups."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The most valuable feature of Wasabi is its cost."
"Wasabi is an easy-to-use solution."
"Basically, I set Wasabi up and forget it. I'll monitor it every once in a while just to make sure that it's working correctly."
"The security model can be improved as it is a bit confusing."
"You do need to get training on the setup process."
"There are some scalability limitations."
"The major challenge is the inability to create more than ten policies."
"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."
"The cost of the solution should be reduced."
"No direct connector is available to connect Amazon S3 with other tools like MicroStrategy."
"We would like Amazon to reduce the price of storage."
"The scalability could be improved."
"Having the ability to upload and download data using third-party apps such as Mega which can sync to the desktop would be excellent."
"Setting up users on the appliance should be improved."
"I don't have enough experience to understand the nuances of where they might improve."
"The solution must allow the extension of the retention period."
"The scalability could improve."
"The solution’s user reporting could be improved."
