Gartner’s Voice of the Customer: Confirming Nasuni’s Leadership in Unstructured Data Management

The newly released Gartner® Voice of the Customer for Hybrid Cloud Storage report provides a peer-driven look at how vendors perform in real enterprise environments. Based entirely on verified reviews, the report summarizes customer sentiment across product capabilities, deployment experience, support, and overall satisfaction, offering valuable context for organizations evaluating modern data platforms.

While the research is framed around hybrid cloud storage as a market category, Nasuni views these customer-validated capabilities through the broader lens of unstructured data management (UDM). As file data volumes grow, organizations are seeking platforms that not only store files but also simplify management, enhance protection, scale globally, and prepare data for analytics and AI. And, as we’re excited to share, the strong customer feedback highlighted in the report reinforces Nasuni’s position as a leading platform supporting this shift.

Strong Performer Status (and Stronger Customer Validation)

Nasuni appears in the report’s Strong Performer quadrant, reflecting above-average overall experience scores among eligible vendors. Because quadrant placement is alphabetical — rather than ranked— the underlying review data is a clear indicator of market traction. And on this front, Nasuni stands out.

During the 18-month evaluation period, Nasuni received 46 eligible customer reviews — nearly twice as many as CTERA and significantly more than other independent vendors. Only AWS and Microsoft saw higher counts, which aligns with their hyperscale reach. This breadth and recency of reviews indicate widespread adoption and real-world momentum across industries and global deployments.

Nasuni also maintains an impressive 96% willingness to recommend score, supported by a large, diverse sample size. This gives prospects confidence that results are consistent; not based on a handful of reviews but validated across many deployments.

Built for the Future: The Unstructured Data Advantage

The customer insights in the report reflect the capabilities that define modern unstructured data platforms. Enterprises increasingly need solutions that centralize file data, eliminate fragmented legacy infrastructure, and ensure business continuity.

Nasuni’s architecture is purpose-built for exactly this shift. The platform:

• Consolidates unstructured data into a single global namespace for simple, centralized management
• Leverages immutable snapshots to strengthen cyber resilience and eliminate the need for traditional backup
• Delivers global file access with high performance through intelligent edge caching
• Runs natively on the object store of your choice, reinforcing our role in the hyperscale ecosystem

These strengths come through in Nasuni’s Gartner Peer Insights reviews, where real customers highlight Nasuni as “reliable, scalable, and future-proof,” praise straightforward deployments, and consistently commend Nasuni’s responsive, expert support teams.

The combination of strong technology, global scale, and exceptional support is central to why Nasuni remains one of the most widely deployed platforms among independent vendors in the report.

Why This Matters for Data Leaders Today

This report confirms a broader industry trend: organizations aren’t just modernizing storage; they’re modernizing how they manage unstructured data. They need platforms that can support global operations, reduce infrastructure complexity, strengthen protection, and unlock the value of growing volumes of file data.

Nasuni’s strong customer engagement, high recommendation rates, and deep review history affirm the platform’s ability to meet these evolving needs at enterprise scale.

For organizations evaluating data modernization strategies, Gartner Peer Insights offer valuable context and a clear view of which platforms deliver meaningful results.
