# What hybrid cloud storage platforms are best for a dev team that needs fast backup and disaster recovery so they can recover quickly if something goes wrong in production?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Hey G2 software reviewers, researchers, and anyone who has lived through a bad production day. Something breaks, and the only question that matters is how fast you get your data back. I'm looking at hybrid cloud storage platforms for exactly that: fast backup and disaster recovery for a dev team. From the<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/hybrid-cloud-storage-solutions"> </a><a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/hybrid-cloud-storage-solutions">hybrid cloud storage solutions</a> list, three names keep coming up:</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/nasuni/reviews"><strong>Nasuni</strong></a> saves a version of every file as it changes, so recovery means pointing back to a clean moment and moving on. Reviewers rate it near the top of this category for business continuity. It's built for file data though, not databases.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/netapp-ontap-data-management-software/reviews"><strong>NetApp ONTAP</strong></a> takes constant point-in-time copies and keeps a synced replica somewhere else, so restores are quick. The trade-off is that it takes real expertise to run.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/aws-storage-gateway/reviews"><strong>AWS Storage Gateway</strong></a> continuously backs up your on-prem data into AWS, and in a true disaster you can bring things back up in the cloud itself. Reviewer satisfaction is more mixed here, and recovery speed depends on how well you've set up the AWS side.</li>

&lt;p&gt;From G2 reviews, Nasuni keeps its recovery promise most consistently in practice. G2 reviewers who have recovered from actual incidents (not just tests) describe pointing back to a clean version and restoring in minutes for file data, with the caveat that anything database-heavy needs a separate solution. AWS Storage Gateway is where the gap between tested and real recovery shows up most, with reviewers noting that actual recovery time depends heavily on how the AWS side was configured beforehand, making it reliable for teams that have rehearsed it.&lt;/p&gt;
