Very capable disaster recovery platform

What do you like best?

It performs exactly as advertised. It's reliable, fast, and gets good compression. My primary use for it is maintaining database backups and Exagrid is my favorite storage location.

What do you dislike?

I don't have to touch it from an administrative standpoint, I just consume the storage. I haven't had it fail or personally give me any issues in the five years I've used it.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

If you need a robust and flexible on-prem storage solution, Exagrid should be on your list of things to evaluate.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

As a DBA, I am responsible for maintaining a large amount of backups and unless I consume extreme amounts of disk space, I can't retain meaningful data for very long. Exagrid allows me to dump backups every 15 minutes from 15-20 database servers with a retention period of up to a month. It does a very good job at compression and I have never felt like it wasn't fast enough for me.
