Nasuni Reviews

.Fast and resilient

Easy to setup

Intergrates easily with Azure Storage

Easy to restore files

I appreciate Nasuni's quick synchronization, which ensures every location has the latest data, making collaboration across global offices seamless. The ability to access large files locally while maintaining cloud availability maintains high performance, essential for our engineering and architectural projects. I find the backup process effortless with Nasuni, where simply setting the retention needs allows the software to manage the rest, and restorations are impressively fast, taking just seconds. The optional ransomware addon has proven its worth by effectively blocking simulated attack attempts in seconds, providing a significant peace of mind. Nasuni’s robust disaster recovery plan is well-designed, enabling complete recovery and data access within minutes. The initial setup was easy with Nasuni’s support throughout the process. I highly value these features, as they have significantly improved our workflow efficiency and data management.

I occasionally encounter an issue where file locks are not released properly, requiring manual intervention from a Nasuni admin. While this isn't a major inconvenience and happens rarely, it does require extra steps for resolution, which could disrupt the workflow if it occurs frequently.

Nasuni solves our global data synchronization issue, ensuring reliable, high-performance file access across locations. It provides quick backups and restores, robust disaster recovery, and effective ransomware protection, enhancing collaboration and safeguarding data.

Nasuni, as a software platform, is intuitive to manage. It offers a unified management portal that allows us to oversee all deployed appliances in our environment, whether they are on-premises or in the cloud.

We worked with Nasuni project team when implementing this solution. They acted professionally and are experts in what they implement, which made our deployment simple and minimised service downtime during cut over periods.

I really appreciate Nasuni for its centralized naming and robust storage features. These aspects significantly ease the user experience and ensure reliability, which is crucial for my work involving file sharing. Additionally, the initial setup of Nasuni was incredibly smooth, making the transition seamless. The reliability and efficiency provided by Nasuni's storage solutions are invaluable to me, contributing to an overall positive experience with the product.

I find that cloud accessible storage in Nasuni isn't as intuitive as I would like. Additionally, the requirement for external authentication to be dependent on Active Directory presents limitations for us.

I use Nasuni for centralized naming and robust storage, enhancing reliability and user experience in file sharing.

The technology offers central storage with distributed access, ensuring both data security and fast access speeds. Its reliability is impressive, with excellent uptime. Scalability is another strong point, as it removes the constraints of hardware limitations. Innovation is clearly a priority, with new features being added on a regular basis.

The management tools are outdated and lag behind current standards. The main console has remained virtually unchanged for the past ten years, and the reporting features are minimal to the point of being almost nonexistent. It would also be beneficial if data analytics capabilities were added.

This solution eliminates the need for backups and does away with storage limitations.

I am thoroughly impressed with the Nasuni Management Console. It offers a centralized monitoring solution that allows me to check the health of all filers from a single location, eliminating the need to visit each edge individually. I find the Snapshot feature particularly valuable, as it enables me to restore files from older versions if users accidentally delete or overwrite them. This feature has been a favorite among users in my environment. The user interface is straightforward and easy to navigate, making the console user-friendly. I'm also impressed by Nasuni's Antivirus feature, which effectively detects unsafe files, blocks clients from saving risky file extensions, and generates reports of affected files. Another aspect I appreciate is the ability to connect the same volume through different edges, providing a reliable disaster recovery solution in case of technical failures. Finally, the setup was remarkably smooth due to the intuitive GUI and the support team's assistance, making the initial configuration seamless.

I find that Nasuni could improve by setting up a simple automated reporting feature for sharing the edge status with the IT team via email. As a storage admin, I often have to manually check the NMC console for the status of the edge. If there were an option for an auto-generated report that could be scheduled, it would greatly enhance efficiency. Additionally, it would be beneficial to enable a volume used space report feature that could be scheduled on a monthly or weekly basis.

I find Nasuni simplifies data management with centralized monitoring, restoring overwritten or deleted files, and blocking unsafe files with antivirus, enhancing data security and system reliability.

I like how Nasuni keeps improving and adding new features with new version releases. The FileIQ has been a great addition as well as OPSIQ and ApplianceIQ in the portal. They don't stop enriching the platform.

One issue I've encountered is that you cannot change the master filers for a volume once it has been configured. Additionally, some aspects of the NMC's functionality could be better. For example, the process of connecting a volume is somewhat confusing, especially when you need to select more than one volume. Lastly, the Safe Delete function could use improvement, as it is currently too easy to modify.

It has allowed us to have serverless offices and to centralize our data in a data center.

We also got rid of DFSR (windows replication) and are now using Nasuni snapshots and replication a lot more efficiently. Excellent software.

I appreciate that Nasuni offers an all-in-one solution that allows businesses to scale their file systems without any limitations. This is incredibly beneficial as it enables companies to retain their data even when they lack the resources or desire to handle retention maintenance manually. Nasuni ensures that data is accessible whenever and wherever needed, providing a sustainable, secure, and elastic alternative to traditional on-premises file servers. I also value the around-the-clock support provided by Nasuni, which is very good and reassuring. The guidance from their Technical Account Managers (TAMs) is also noteworthy, facilitating a smooth setup process which, coupled with my experience, made the integration not at all difficult.

When dealing with vast file systems, changes to permissions and migrations can be slow, and there isn't a good way for users to search for files, unlike Windows file servers that had search indexing capabilities.

I use Nasuni for sustainable, secure, elastic file storage, replacing traditional on-prem file servers. It supports growth without boundaries, making storage scalable and accessible without heavy maintenance.

We use Nasuni very heavily & love it. Great & very reliable products, 24/7 Support & great Customer Service.

Price can be brought little down to attract more customers
