Testimonials

DuraCloud provides me with a peace of mind so I don’t have to stay up at night thinking about old servers and limited storage space. Before DuraCloud, we were at a point where we were going to lose our data.

The benefit of DuraCloud is storing files on the Internet outside of our institution and on a large scale storage provider. Off-site storage is the key to keeping digital content available for years.

The potential for DuraCloud is very high. By hiding the complexity and idiosyncrasies of multiple storage providers behind a single interface and a suite of tools, it delivers the benefits of a diverse network of storage locations, but without the overhead of managing different vendors. It brings together the best of both worlds.

DuraCloud provides a robust infrastructure to support digital preservation of content in our institutional repository, along with services that enhance the delivery and integrity of the content.

DuraCloud is a robust, sustainable and scalable solution for the University of Scranton Library’s digital storage and preservation needs. It gives me the ability to protect and maintain our existing collections as well as the freedom to say "Yes" to new digital projects and acquisitions.
