"Easy to Understand and Set Up"
What do you like best about Nasuni?

It's quite easy to understand, and setup - it's easy to train 1st line of support in basics of the operations very quickly.

System is quite stable once sized properly.

Concept might not be new, but it's executed quite well - one filer is supporting whole big manufacturing Site for years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nasuni?

Problem with obtaining hardware filers in EMEA region.

Filers shows You all sorts of stats, for example % of space consumed by file types... but won't be able to show You WHERE those are.

Checking logs for file operation is very cumbersome with huge txt filtering involved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless Global File Synchronization and Robust Data Security"
What do you like best about Nasuni?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nasuni?

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.

"Simplifies NAS with Advanced Features"
What do you like best about Nasuni?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nasuni?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nasuni: A Boundary-Less File System Solution"
What do you like best about Nasuni?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nasuni?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlined place to manage and store data"
What do you like best about Nasuni?

Nasuni software has a well organized, impressive and easy to use interface. Provides a best console to use for data management.

This is a great centralize app to keep, manage and edit the documents in easy ways. Even its a cloud based application so people can share the documents quickly and the clink on link option is also there in it by which you can generate a file accessing link and share to the viewers.

It has a very clean and familiar interface to use for your document management.

If you face any kind of problem while using the application then the customer support team is always available, they will guide and assist you when ever you need, they are available 24*7.

For safety purpose of the important files, Nasuni takes regular back of the content, and also it has a quick and instant recovery feature also if in case any of the data gets misplaced, deleted by mistake or corrupted then this recovery feature helps to get the data again in seconds.

I really love one of its feature that allows to lock the files which you do not want that all users can view, you can select and give permission via this platform to those people who you want to access and open that file. Other this software will keep the confidential data always secured. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nasuni?

Does not allows to use and access all the feature in non subscribed version of the platform. Except this we have no issue from this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent software. It has helped us centralize our data and make our operations more efficient."
What do you like best about Nasuni?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nasuni?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate the interface of Nasuni, as it is very user-friendly and makes navigating through tasks a breeze. The design is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional, which makes using the software a seamless experience. One of the standout features for me is the intuitive process for retrieving a virtual machine from the backup. It's an interactive experience that simplifies a potentially complex process, making it much easier to manage. This efficiency in backing up and retrieving both physical and virtual servers plays a crucial role in our daily operations, especially in scenarios where disaster recovery is necessary.

"Transforming File Storage & Data Management with Nasuni"
What do you like best about Nasuni?

I like that Nasuni can easily grow in the cloud and that it has built-in versioning that makes file recovery quick. The features that protect against ransomware and make data unchangeable add an extra layer of security. The clean admin interface makes it easy and quick to do management tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nasuni?

Not much to complain about, but it would be nice to have more detailed reporting and analytics options for deeper insights. The first step of the migration process also needs careful planning to make sure everything goes smoothly. After that, the system is easy to keep up with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nasuni IQ"
What do you like best about Nasuni?

I am very impressed with the centralized tool of Nasuni console management.

Where admin can manage all Nasuni filers, access, and policies from a single dashboard. Which save for us.

It is good in built-in snapshots & fast recovery of backups. not required additional backup tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nasuni?

Since Nasuni is cloud-based, offline access is limited. Any network issues can disrupt access to files, especially in remote or bandwidth-constrained locations.

Nasuni is optimized for file sharing and collaboration, not for high-performance workloads like databases.

while using Nasuni we are getting frequent excel corruption issues. Users unable to recover full date of excel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
