About

ArchiverFS is a lightweight file archiving solution for servers and network storage that lets you use any NAS, SAN, or cloud platform as second-tier storage. With no databases or proprietary formats, it runs on pure NTFS from start to finish. Old, unused, or unstructured files can be moved in bulk from expensive primary storage to cheaper secondary devices while preserving directory structures, attributes, and permissions. If it can be formatted with NTFS and shared via a UNC path, ArchiverFS can use it. Features include support for cloud, DFS, replication, de-duplication, and compression. Optional link stubs (including seamless symbolic links) can be left in place of moved files, so users see them exactly as before. By reclaiming valuable space on primary storage without adding complexity, ArchiverFS helps organizations reduce costs, improve performance, and manage file growth with complete transparency.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It utilizes Windows native feature - Symbolic link or Shortcut to archive files from one shared folder to another shared folder which can be locally or remotely, it's transparent to end users. It inherits same permissions from source at destination side as security consideration which is a common concern from business. It maintains Symbolic links via maintenance job. The software provider reacts on requirements and issues real quick.
  • Simple but powerful user interface. Very customizable archiving policy. Support for DFS shares. The support is awesome.

Cons

  • Unfortunately it doesn't support Linux. The performance of running multiple (>5) jobs simultaneously might be degraded.
  • Maybe the perpetual licensing plans should be more flexible.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • In the absence of strong data retention policies across the various departments in our organisation, we have used MailMeter File Archiver and more recently Siscin to manage the explosion of data being created and/or uploaded to file shares across multiple file servers by stubbing specific file types to the archive. Otherwise, we would have have encountered major data storage challenges within our on-premise hardware infrastructure.

Cons

  • Migration from on-premise solution to the Cloud version was quite time consuming but was worth it in the end as we recovered 4.5TB of disk space for other applications in our on-premise infrastructure.
