Scalability-wise, I can say it is a good product because it provides you with different ways of using it.

Two or three people in my company use the solution.

Scalability's pretty awesome. I'd rate it nine out of ten overall. With the size of our organization, we likely have around 9,000 users.

Good. It's actually a good feature. You're able to scale with the cloud.

There may be some issues with the scalability.

For this case, we don't really need to scale, it's not our primary thing. As long as it backs up automatically and everything.

Any department that is having files shared and data that can be deleted and changed a lot would need this solution. Here is in the Middle East, it's a little bit different as the adoption of the cloud is not so strong. Mostly the type of businesses that would use this product are all SMBs. I'd recommend a higher level for enterprises. 

There is nothing wrong with the scalability of the product. It's simply a matter of licensing and configuration, nothing more, nothing less. If it needs something from the back end, it's a configuration that can be done or adjusted easily as it's something on the cloud. You can just change the attributes that you need for the service. It's simple. Nothing is hard there. As it's not a mission-critical thing that it needs to be up 24/7, you can do these upgrades easily.

Excellent. I have two different nodes that are 116 terabytes of usable data on each. I'm using about 95% of them, and I was hoping to get about three months onsite that I could keep for backups or for recoveries, and I have literally six months on and still going strong. Still haven't hit the cap.

At the moment, we're running it as a virtual appliance. There is no physical stuff on the site. It's all virtual. It seems to be doing the job well. If I need another one, I can scale it out.

It is scalable. We haven't used it to its max capability, but we're planning to in the near future as we're taking on more work for ourselves with other organizations within the Department of Transportation. As of yet, we haven't used it to its full capability. I will have to wait and see within the next year how it works out with the scalability.

The solution is based on the number of users and nothing more. You can just add subscriptions if you need to expand the solution out.

Scalability is awesome. With the virtual component, just being able to spin up whatever size one that makes sense, it's great.
