Private Cloud vs Public Cloud
Storage That Scales. Costs That Don't
Easily store, manage, and secure Petabytes of unstructured data in your own private storage cloud!
Econocom’s Storage as-a-Service (STaaS) is a private cloud S3 storage solution that delivers a powerful combination of security, scalability, and cost predictability, ensuring your data remains protected and always accessible... without the egress costs
Hosted in your private data centre or colocation facility, our STaaS solution provides an always-on, ransomware-resilient storage platform that grows with your business - without the unpredictability of traditional cloud pricing.
With fixed, transparent pricing and no hidden egress fees, you gain full control over your data, ensuring high performance, cost efficiency, and robust protection against cyber threats. Designed to mitigate ransomware risks and keep your business-critical data secure and accessible, Econocom Storage as-a-Service helps you simplify storage management while reducing operational costs—so you can focus on driving innovation, not managing infrastructure.
No Budgeting Nightmares
Cloud storage pricing can be unpredictable, making it difficult to manage costs. Our STaaS model eliminates complex pricing structures, ensuring you maintain control over short- and long-term storage expenses.
No Egress or API Fees
Moving data out of the cloud can come with unexpectedly high costs, often referred to as egress fees. For businesses like yours, operating at scale, these costs create a substantial barrier to flexibility, limiting how you can use and share your own data without breaking budgets.
With Econocom STaaS, you pay only for storage—no extra fees for accessing or moving your data.

Our solution secures both object data and metadata across Hot and Cold Storage Classes, safeguarding against unauthorised access, ransomware, and breaches.
