Case Study: 7 Wonders Cinema Achieves Cost-Effective Active Archiving with Wasabi Technologies

7 Wonders Cinema Turns to Wasabi for Cost-effective Active Archiving

7 Wonders Cinema, a Philadelphia-based video production and strategy company, needed a cost-effective way to archive growing amounts of footage without giving up fast access to files for future projects. As their client base expanded, they outgrew local hard drives and multiple Google Drive accounts, and traditional cold storage options from Google and Amazon were too expensive for the occasional retrievals they needed. They turned to Wasabi hot cloud storage to solve this active archiving challenge.

With Wasabi, 7 Wonders Cinema gained low-cost, long-term storage with instant file access, allowing the team to retrieve archived footage quickly for new projects, including a Mercedes-Benz campaign request. Wasabi also met the company’s HIPAA compliance needs for healthcare clients, eliminating the need to keep hard drives on location. The result was a dramatic cost savings—100 GB on Google reportedly cost the same as 1 TB on Wasabi—along with better performance, more storage capacity, and strong customer support from Wasabi.
