Dell AppSync maintains consistent and automated backups and in case of disaster recovery the software provides all the options of automatically generated daily copies to choose from. Integration can take place in different environments such as VMware, SQL, Oracle, Microsoft and others. Built-in management and compatibility makes work easier and lets you keep the always-on service up and running. We recommend Dell AppSync.

It is great for organizations that do not want to be limited to the size of their storage appliance. Since the hardware is used primarily as a cache, there is no cap of the amount of data. Anything beyond the cache size gets stored in the cloud, and Nasuni has advanced logic that ensures the most active data stays in cache, so performance is not impacted.

  • The management console is extremely simple and easy to navigate, making common tasks easy to do.
  • Our storage appliance is configured to snapshot data several times an hour, making the risk of data loss very low.
  • Data restores are very intuitive, and take seconds to initiate regardless of whether it is one file or 300GB of data. We have successfully restored many Gigs of data in minutes.

Usability
No answers on this topic
As I mentioned, the user interface is amazing and straight forward. It's very easy to learn how to configure and restore files. I would like a bit more reporting, especially in terms of live reporting and monitoring. The support is great when you have a question on how to do something, which helps with usability.

Performance
No answers on this topic
Again, it may have a little to do with the size and speed of your own environment, but we've been nothing but pleased with the speed of access of the files - even pulling old files from the cloud storage. Recovery of huge and many data files is a bit slow if you don't have the specs of the filer up to snuff.

Dell EMC Storage products are in use accross the estate so is more suited to use Dell software to manage the replicaiton of data between storage arrays. Provides us with a stable and trouble free mehtod to replicate data across luns. Good product to have implemented during an datacenter outage

I am not sure if we looked into any other cloud storage applications or software. But I do highly recommend Nasuni. If you have feedback, they actually listen. We even got to meet with the founder and he listened to a lot of our feedback. Whether or not they will implement and suggestions, having that listening ear is refreshing.
