"Snowmobile moves data"
4/5
What do you like best about AWS Snowmobile?

Helps to move extremely large amounts of data over to AWS. They make it easy to transfer the data. Security is also the main focus with GPS tracking, alarm monitoring and video surveillance. This process allows for data transfer at a faster rate than past processes. The process is unique with the semi-container truck, but smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Snowmobile?

The process is just that a process. Literally having a truck at your location is sometimes a logistic nightmare. Even with GPS tracking, security and escort the fear of someone taking that much data is concerning. An argument could be made to change your backup schedule and transfer smaller amounts of data more frequently instead of one large transfer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
