Wasabi Announces Industry First Pricing Plan to Completely Eliminate Cloud Storage Egress Fees

Wasabi is very pleased to announce our groundbreaking, industry first pricing plan to the market and accelerate cloud adoption by providing customers with a simple, one line item cloud storage price calculation at 80% less and up to 6x faster than Amazon S3. With organizations paying high and often hidden egress fees to retrieve or access their data, we’re on a mission to make cloud storage pricing transparent, simple, predictable, and, most of all, highly affordable.

Competitors in the cloud storage industry like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft burden customers with egress fees that make people feel like they’re being nickeled and dimed to death with unnecessary charges. In a world where we can access unlimited data, unlimited mileage, unlimited talk and text, and more, it’s time for the cloud storage market to get on board with commoditization and innovation by ultimately eliminating unpredictability for consumers.

Since many customers don’t know how much egress they are going to need, our solution offers organizations a plan that allows business and IT professionals an opportunity to stick to a fixed budget, and not be caught off guard with the unpredictable costs associated with egress. In addition to a significantly lower price point, Wasabi customers can store, move, and retrieve their data at the fastest speeds in the industry. We hope our decision to innovate in this space will reverberate throughout the industry and influence people to rethink the economics of cloud storage to finally make that migration to cloud. Eliminating egress fees is a major stepping stone toward making cloud storage the next great global utility.
