CloudSee Drive: Tag Explorer vs Resource Explorer

// Tag Explorer

Your AWS Tags Should
Do Something.

Now They Can.

Tag Explorer gives you a fast, browsable view of every tag in your S3 bucket. You can stop hunting and start finding.

The Console Wasn’t Built for This

You built a tagging strategy. You applied those tags. You told your team to use them.

And then you opened the AWS Console…

Thousands of objects. Hundreds of tag key/value pairs.

Zero way to browse them. You can’t see what tags exist. You can’t filter by them.

You can’t find the files that were never tagged at all.

Resource Explorer is a workaround, not a workflow.

Your tags are there. They just aren’t usable.

Trusted by Teams Managing Real S3 Workloads

We use CloudSee Drive to access company file archives in S3. CloudSee works great to setup designated recovery users and manage which buckets they have access to. With S3, you can’t restore more than one file at once and you can’t search very well. We needed a solution to both those issues. CloudSee works great for what we need.

Derek B., Director of IT in Commercial Real Estate

I’m able to select which user can see which bucket and with which permissions. That is a game changer!

David L., IT Director in Manufacturing

To keep up with inbound customer queries about DMS feeds, we needed a file management and collaboration tool. We chose CloudSee Drive and I am happy with that decision. We can manage files from any device. I consider this the ultimate productivity tool for managing content on S3. We can organize and tag files easily, which increases staff productivity in the long term.

// Stop navigating. Start finding.

If you manage a real S3 workload and you've spent any time trying to track down files by tag, Tag Explorer frees up a couple of hours every week.
