File Data Quotas
The Good:
File quotas empower users to manage their storage wisely by making them aware of their impact on the company network. Through automatic prompts and restrictions, users can learn to question the importance and relevance of the files they want to save before their data ever enters the shared network.
The “Bad”:
Having structure and visibility means storage is consumed efficiently. No vacation photos here!
The Good:
With the right quotas and file blocking policies, corporate business rules can be applied. This cleaner approach to file management means a lower storage volume and a better ROI on your storage system.
The “Bad”:
The many irrelevant files your employees saved in triplicate five years ago? Gone for good!
The Good:
When you implement good data storage policies and quotas, you gain an accurate benchmark of your current usage. The best storage systems analyze your storage trends automatically so that you can access and predict the storage you’ll need down the road.
The “Bad”:
The days of manually analyzing storage spreadsheets over late-night pizza deliveries? Now over!
In the end, file data quotas aren’t good or bad; they are simply an effective means of managing the capacity of your networked storage so that you have the space you need, when you need it.
