Avis clients sur DiskStation

Très bon matériel pratique et durable.

Commentaires : Mon expérience globale est positive. J'utilise ce matériel depuis plusieurs années et je n'ai jamais eu aucune panne ni un quelconque problème à l'utilisation.

Avantages :

Il est appréciable d'avoir autant d'options d'utilisations avec ce matériel, d'avoir de nombreuses applications pour tirer parti de toutes les diverses utilisations possibles. On peut par exemple créer un serveur multimédia, un Synology Mail Server, un web station (pour son site internet) ou un vidéo station.. etc. On peut simplement s'en servir comme serveur local de sauvegarde ou de partage de fichiers.

Inconvénients :

Les logiciels dédiés, l'interface générale et l'utilisation manque d'érgonomie. Certaines mises en place demande certaines compétences spécifiques et assez pointues en informatique. Heureusement il y a des tutoriels sur internet.

A worthy product for all developers

Commentaires : Best product and definitely worth giving a try

Avantages :

The software is designed in such way that it provides a fastest cloud services and our own virtual machine at an insanely low price

Inconvénients :

I am using this software for over 6 months have nothing like cons.

Excellent small business solution

Commentaires : Using ABfB to backup my customers' servers and PCs off-site, and to backup my own local data to B2. So easy to use I backup all my managed PCs for bare metal restore. I can do this because ABfB's dedupe is very good at reducing storage used. Tested restores come up ready to put back into production.

Avantages :

The deduping is excellent at conserving space. Several different backup methods including multi-version, incremental and full-system bare metal restore. Can backup Linux servers agentless using SSH keys. Restores so far have been consistently solid. File and folder restores can be initiated from the NAS or the client computer. A report can be emailed daily or weekly showing the status of all backups. Backup as many computers as your bandwidth can handle -- there are no per-machine licensing costs.

Inconvénients :

No bare metal restore for Linux. I have numerous servers, desktops and laptops running Debian, Devuan, and Ubuntu that would be nice to be able to recover without rebuilding.

Solid & functional

Commentaires : My business has been using DiskStation for the last four years. Aside from the occasional hiccup, it has worked admirably. We use it for basic music playback in our music school. We have one at each of our locations, synced so that changes made to one location are reflected at the other. The response is slow at times, particularly when using a remote connection.

Synology DiskStation, a must for secure your data

Commentaires : Synology diskstation is my backup repository, I save a copy of my data and also several mailbox accounts. So this helps to meet GDPR compliance.
The initial setup was easy and I can find a lot of documentation on internet, or eventually ask for help to Synology support.

Avantages :

The interface is simple and intuitive. You can set the nas and install/configure services and apps (I recommend a RAID 5 disk configuration for better performance). I use Diskstation as backup repository for email accounts and data. As data backup, Email backup is crucial too and you can backup e.g. all your 365 mailboxes and features. Also you can set remote backups of your data. Definitely worth the price.

Inconvénients :

DIskstation works well and I don't have any issue to tell

Synology Diskstation has been an incredibly valuable resource for business and home solutions.

Avantages :

The amount of first-party apps which are aimed at solving a lot of tasks users may have is what makes this software suite great. Other NAS providers may aim at a handful of media and downloading softwares, but Synology makes it clear out of the gate that their focus is on productivity. They produce apps which handle everything from CRM and CMS installations to security camera integration, to virtualization. The sheer value proposition of Diskstation makes it difficult to view this as a valuable product. Their customer service is also spot-on - we had to run an RMA through their center and both Email and Phone support were prompt and helpful.

Inconvénients :

The only issue I have found is either the learning curve of the software is a bit too high for some use cases, or the software doesn't dive deep enough into it outright replacing everything we are using. While I see incredible value for others with the mail server, for instance, it cannot perform everything we need and so it isn't being used. This is only a minor issue though, as I am confident there is something for everybody on in this product.

Easy to use, full featureset.

Commentaires : I have installed multiple Synology NAS systems for different labs on campus. Built-in multiple 10Gb networking provides fast access. AD integration provides simple authentication path for changing class rosters allowing simple turnover from semester to semester.

Avantages :

Provides a intuitive interface to what could be complex configurations. Linux based with a web management interface that allows granular control of configuration. Great support for Active Directory authentication. Security updates are prompt and backwards compatible. The current system software run on the most recent Synology hardware as well as the older hardware. The only thing missing from older hardware are Intel CPU dependent features suck as virtualization. All add-on software modules that you need are freely available for installation via the Package manager.

Inconvénients :

Older or lower end hardware uses a slower ARM CPU. This limits performance compared with Intel CPU based hardware.

The Best Way to Manage and Backup Your Data

Avantages :

DiskStation is so user-friendly. The menus are easy to navigate and you can find what you're looking for very quickly. Setup is a breeze and the add-ons give you more functionality without any added cost. I love the virtual desktop environment that Synology has created for DiskStation. It feels like I'm using another OS but I think that's a good thing. The environment is different enough so I don't confuse it with my main OS but familiar enough so I can do what I need to quickly. Synology has made backing up critical data effortless and made accessing that data very convenient.

Inconvénients :

The software is great but the online support material is lacking in a big way. I wish there were more videos produced by Synology to help users understand the advanced features of the software. It also feels like I'm downloading updates all the time.

DiskStation is the best and cheapest backup solution.

Commentaires : DiskStation is the best solution that I use. and has a wide range of integration.

Avantages :

DiskStation is cheap and stable, with a large store of applications to integrate with everything. DiskStation can connect to the C2 cloud smoothly.

Inconvénients :

After 5 years of using Diskstation, I didn't find a major con. We can say the frequent updates were annoying.

It works and its dirt cheap. Solid NAS. Support could drastically improve.

Commentaires : The cost of storage and the functions, this is a great investment with no learning curve.

Avantages :

Pretty much everything but support. Assuming you bought the bare model, you populate the drives. Then use the utility that finds it by MAC and you assign an IP. Connect, and you'll find a rather pretty GUI that resembles windows 7. Updates and simple, and frequently released. 3rd party and native apps are abound. Its also dead simple to set up replication, if you wanted to setup a second unit for DR or backups. I also personally use one at home, using it as a plex host for my home theater, and it performs flawlessly.

Inconvénients :

Support isn't great, and it's overseas. Expect to conduct it all via email, and responses are not quick, Still, its so solid you may never need to contact them. Compared to the costs of a SAN, and other NAS, this should be a no brainer.

Reliable Drive Array, but it's the software that makes the difference

Commentaires : 40 TB of space for my company team, to share data and collaborate. This works quite well for our business.

Avantages :

DiskStation and its added packages make the Synology the best NAS available for small to medium businesses, including SOHO. A perfect suite of software packages, most available for free, to use on your PC or mobile device.

Inconvénients :

I really want a BookStation or DS Books app to keep track of my massive library of digital book titles.

DiskStation is an easy to use multi-functional server.

Commentaires : DiskStation is very easy to setup, runs on a variety of hardware supplied by Synology and can scale from two drives to 12 disks, always with the same ease of use.

Avantages :

Very easy to setup and manage. Great set of applications available. The Docker feature is especially useful when running services that aren't native to the operating system. Networking is easy to configure and even supports ethernet bonding (when connected to a proper switch) to improve local network performance. MFA account security supports both authenticator codes and WebAuthn (hardware security keys and fingerprint scanners). The RAID configuration is easy.

Inconvénients :

I have been using an extensive set of features and additional apps and have not found something that made me think "I'd like this differently".

Good for starting better for growing

Commentaires : Been a small team of creative people with no technical experience in server installation and management, Synology did offer us the perfect solution for growing our business.

Avantages :

- Very powerfull an easy to configure for a novice user (0 prior experience in server instalation). - Very stable and reliable. We start with a small size server, and after 3 years we move to a bigger solution. We decide to remaing with Synology primearly because of the features and ease of use of it operating system.

Inconvénients :

- There are some bugs that have to be solved by commandline, which it´s something kind of nerve-raking. - The Drive integration still need improving. - The online tutorials and guides could be better.

DiskStation does the job

Avantages :

A lot options to customize the experience to fit my needs.

Inconvénients :

Permissions are not straightforward. This could be a problem for less tech savvy users.

Amazing Implementation

Avantages :

I've been a user for over 4 years and have multiple NAS, and I have to say that I don't need to look to anywhere else to get my next NAS. The implementation is top notch, with software like Cloud Station Drive replacing services like dropbox, and streaming 4k directly to my TV. Amazing.

Inconvénients :

The app store offer are still quite low in numbers, even though there's plenty of essential apps already.

Really powerful, rock-steady, and the leader in NAS

Avantages :

Rock-steady reliability. Have used DiskStation for years and it has never failed me. For prosumers and small/medium businesses nothing else comes close - you'd need enterprise-level budgets to be able to get anything more reliable / powerful.

Inconvénients :

Learning curve might be a bit high for someone with zero experience. It's worth the time investment learning though!

Great product

Avantages :

Awesome Nas software which does all you want and then some. I sincerely recommend this over any other kind of Nas that's available out there.

Inconvénients :

Nothing, it's just a Great product. The only thing I miss is being able to run my own hardware.

I absolutely love this NAS

Commentaires : Wonderful. I love this device. I highly recommend it and have already suggested one to multiple friends and family members.

Avantages :

This NAS might be the best purchase I have ever made. I love this Synology's software and hardware. I cannot live without this NAS.

Inconvénients :

It would be nice if Synology offered some higher end hardware. The NAS does everything I need, but it would be nice if you could purchase higher end versions with modern Intel i5/i7 or or AMD Ryzen chips and more ram.

Ease of implementation

Avantages :

The ease of implementation of this server with DiskStation and software is a massive plus for synology.

Inconvénients :

To set up remote login was a bit tricky specially setting up a DDNS. However, the community is very helpful.

Quality product but with a hefty price tag

Commentaires : The ease of use and included functionality of the synology diskstations make these an ideal choice for someone looking for a simple, reliable solution for an easy set and forget home nas

Avantages :

The GUI of the software is excellent Functionality is very good Very reliable and easy to use Range of applications available that can be installed very easily (plex etc)

Inconvénients :

The cost of synology systems are very expensive, for a technical user it's hard to justify the high price tag when something similar can be achieved by creating your own home server

Good in-expansive NAS

Commentaires : Use multiple NASes for work.

Avantages :

Easy to use. Reliable. Reasonably secure. Not too buggy. Good feature set.

Inconvénients :

Price could be lower while keeping the same quality.

Great product and server

Commentaires : Synology makes a Great server and support software. They update their apps (and server software) every few weeks.

Avantages :

I like the cloud storage aspect

Inconvénients :

It could cost less

Great virtual machine on my Nas!

Avantages :

Synology Virtual Machine Manager is an easy-to-use virtual machine. It runs well every kind of OS (make sure you allocate enough memory for it). It is also have a great feature that allows you to move virtual machine without stopping them

Inconvénients :

Requires a memory upgrade to be used on home Nas. Apart from that the software is really well done and doesn't come with flawed functionalities.

Love my Synology

Commentaires : Great!

Avantages :

Backing up multiple Macs, backing itself up to another Synology drive or S3 and USB is seamless. Very easy to use and set up.

Inconvénients :

Sometimes the less utilized software could be explained better

Backup is the keyword

Commentaires : So far I've been satisfied, the DiskStation gave me an alert of a failing harddrive which I just removed and plugged in a new one, and then it just kept going after that. It's been flawless after that.

Avantages :

DiskStation is great, the hardware they offer is great - and whatever need you have, either it's just local backups or it's a DiskStation state of the art video editing drive, they have it.

Inconvénients :

it does need a bit of tinkering and technical abilities, but whenever it's up and running - it runs.
