Challenges

Before Wasabi, the OmniNet IT team had to manage largely on-premises data storage that required a lot of time and effort to monitor and maintain—especially when issues arose.

Too much time spent managing hardware

On-premises storage needed constant monitoring and didn’t scale quickly or easily.  

Need for flexible cloud-based storage with high-performance and top-tier

As clients’ IT needs evolved, performance and security were paramount.

Complexity in management of multiple sub-accounts

The firm needed more efficiencies around account management, billing, and usage tracking.

Many of our clients report spending 20–30% less on restore-related processes compared to their previous on-prem or legacy cloud providers. Beyond pure cost savings, the ability to validate backups more frequently and confidently also reduces operational risk.

The combined advantages of Wasabi—improved data protection, streamlined management, and long-term scalability—deliver far greater value than a simple one-time budget reduction. Wasabi transforms storage from a recurring expense into a strategic asset, and that’s the true measure of ‘savings’ for our customers.

The option to replicate data across multiple data centers boosts resilience and peace of mind, motivating clients to migrate even more workloads to the cloud. On average, we’ve seen around a 40% increase in the amount of data stored on Wasabi compared to traditional, on-premises environments.
