Adoption Propelled by Industry Leading Customer Experience with TrueNAS Storage

iXsystems, the company behind TrueNAS, achieves new growth milestones over the past 12 months, as the company surpassed $100 million in bookings and saw a 51% increase in the Exabytes of TrueNAS storage deployed worldwide. The impressive growth in the adoption of TrueNAS Enterprise appliances and Open Storage software overall is evidence that more Enterprises are choosing the benefits of Open Source Economics to store and protect their valuable, business-critical data.

In 2022, iXsystems grew four times faster than the Enterprise storage market, which according to the International Data Corporation (IDC) is forecasted to grow by 6%. The TrueNAS family of Enterprise appliances comes with highly-rated support, offering an Enterprise storage experience plus the unique benefits of Open Source Economics. With a 4.8 out of 5 star rating, TrueNAS ranked 6th among primary storage vendors on Gartner Peer Insights, with the only “100% would recommend” score among the top 15 highest rated products due to its exceptional quality and reliability. Customers have consistently praised TrueNAS Enterprise for its robust feature set, easy-to-use interface, and excellent performance.

TrueNAS Open Storage software had milestone releases of TrueNAS CORE and TrueNAS SCALE with 660,000 downloads in 2022, eclipsing the 15 million download mark deployed in 200 countries and territories worldwide. In 2022, TrueNAS users also rated their experience with a record high Net Promoter Score that was 62% higher than the industry average for B2B software companies. TrueNAS SCALE, the first Linux-based NAS software from iX, quickly grew to over 40,000 users with nearly 1 Exabyte under management in only 10 months following its first release. The maturity of these releases earned several top ratings on major review sites, including the highest ranking and most reviews for All-Flash Arrays on G2, and the highest rating and most customer-verified reviews on the site for Network Attached Storage on TrustRadius.
