Trio
Secure cloud storage for media backup, archive, and disaster recovery workflows.

The cloud built for your EVO ecosystem
Cloud storage used to be complicated.
Every modern studio faces the same challenge. You need high-performance storage for editing, off-site storage for redundancy, and a way to manage media across locations.
Traditionally, that meant housing data in disparate systems, signing fee-laden cloud contracts, and independently managing vendors and technologies that may or may not play nicely together.
Trio simplifies it all.
Trio is a secure, scalable, and highly affordable cloud storage service that brings backup, archive, and disaster recovery into your existing EVO workflow.
Think of Trio as the antidote to complicated cloud workflows, offering the security benefits of redundant, off-site storage, without the hassle and overhead of multi-vendor management.
And it’s built right into the EVO Suite.
Three ways to use Trio in your workflow
Designed for all three tiers of media storage, Trio works with your EVO to simplify media backup, archival, and disaster recovery processes.

Backup to the cloud
Trio supports the 3-2-1 methodology and sound backup practices in a secure, cost-effective way.
Cloud backups can be scheduled to run automatically from your EVO system, keeping your data safely on-prem with EVO and securely backed up with Trio.
- Maintain three copies of your media (one primary and two backups).
- Use two different types of storage (for example, EVO on-prem and Trio in the cloud).
- Keep one copy stored off-site to protect against local disasters.

Archive and restore media
With Trio as your EVO archive, finding an archived file is as easy as finding any file in ShareBrowser MAM.
Users can archive files and folders to Trio, and maintain the ability to search, preview, and restore archived media even if the file has been sent to Trio and deleted from EVO.
This native integration helps creative teams free up space on their high-performance EVO, interact with their archived media in ShareBrowser, and vet files before recalling data from the cloud.

Disaster recovery
If you’ve used cloud storage in the past, you’ve likely been hit with some unsavory egress fees.
Let’s talk about the elephant in the room and explain how Trio balances accessibility and affordability when you need it most.
Trio’s monthly pricing includes egress equal to 1X your entire storage volume. If your plan is for a capacity of 200TB/month, that means you can download up to 200TB each month with no egress fees.
In other words, you can confidently recover your media anytime you need it.

Manage your media from ingest to archive and back again.
