Case Study: MacTribe achieves Mac-optimized, scalable storage and simplified file sharing with Synology Inc.'s DiskStation NAS

MacTribe - Customer Case Study

MacTribe, a London-based IT support company focused on Mac environments, needed a right-sized, cost-effective storage and file-sharing solution for small to midsize creative businesses that had been oversold on large servers. After researching options, MacTribe selected Synology Inc.'s DiskStation NAS (recommended model DS1512+) running DiskStation Manager (DSM) to replace bulky server hardware and meet clients’ Mac and iOS-centric needs.

Synology Inc. delivered an all-in-one solution—DiskStation with DSM, Synology Hybrid RAID and Storage Manager—providing AFP and Time Machine compatibility, mobile/iOS apps, Photo Station and Audio Station, and easy scalable storage. The result was faster, simpler deployment and management, strong Mac compatibility, positive client feedback, lower infrastructure costs and reduced power consumption/carbon footprint compared with traditional servers.
