Open iT StorageAnalyzer™
Open iT StorageAnalyzer™ monitors and analyzes disk, file system, and backup usage to help organizations optimize storage resources and reduce IT costs. It identifies unused, stale, or unnecessary data that can be deleted or moved to lower-cost storage tiers by tracking file age and activity. Detailed reports broken down by user, project, department, business unit, and file type give administrators clear visibility into exactly where storage is being consumed and by whom. StorageAnalyzer™ also supports accurate IT chargeback by attributing storage costs based on actual measured usage rather than flat-rate estimates. By surfacing capacity trends and bottlenecks across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments, it enables proactive storage management, prevents unexpected capacity issues, and supports better planning for future storage investments.

Datafy
Datafy helps organizations automatically optimize cloud storage costs by continuously monitoring and right-sizing Amazon EBS volumes so you only pay for what you actually use. It provides visibility into volume usage, applies policy-based resizing without downtime or manual intervention, and delivers ongoing cost savings by adjusting capacity dynamically and identifying underutilized or idle volumes. It emphasizes a three-step workflow: monitor your storage environment for inefficiencies, optimize by automatically adapting volumes to usage patterns, and continuously save by maintaining an efficient footprint. It integrates with existing cloud infrastructure and operates behind the scenes to streamline storage management, reduce waste, and maintain operational uptime. According to customer results, businesses have achieved notable cost reductions using Datafy with minimal setup effort.
