StorageGRID is inherently efficient. But cost efficiency depends on specific requirements. 

It has enabled us to save money on storage costs. We removed our tape library.

The capabilities of the appliance will save us a lot more in the long run.

It has improved our operational efficiency through time consumption and logistics by 40 to 50 percent. Everything that had to do with our legacy tape solution has been improved and is now more efficient. 

We have seen ROI.

We save money on storage costs from this solution since it allows us to have a source of revenue from customers consuming the service.

While we have been able to save money on storage costs, it could be better.

It probably is saving us 50 percent of what we would have had to pay to replace the video servers. Those were all going out of warranty. We looked at how much would it cost to do it with what we were doing currently versus how much would it cost us to consolidate, and it was about a 50 percent savings.
