Has enabled secure, centralized file sharing while saving significant time and resources
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The best features in GoAnywhere MFT are that it's fast, reliable, and secure.
First, the improvement is that we have resolved one of our security points with compliance. So that compliance point we resolved. And also it's a centralized file sharing system. All the users are able to access the file. There is no one-to-one sharing. It's improved about 80 to 85%.
It saves about 80 to 90% resources. In terms of time, we can say 90 to 95% time is also saved because it avoids the one-to-one sharing and simply a user can put one centralized directory and all the users are able to access this solution and access the file. So it's 95%.
What needs improvement?
There is room for improvement in the UI part. Sometimes file sharing gets failed. Many of the users in the last week faced the issue that the files are not delivered. Maybe the sharing part, the consistency, we can improve.
I'd improve the UI and the file-sharing aspect because the UI needs lots of improvement because it's very confusing and it's good for the technical person, but any non-tech person who is going to use that, they get confused.
For how long have I used the solution?
We are using GoAnywhere MFT for the last eight months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
There are rarely file issues, but I can say it's a nine, stable, because it rarely shows any issue.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It's a 10. In scalability aspect, we haven't seen any issue.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support is a 10.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
GoAnywhere MFT is a very good product for the large scale of users. Since we are using it, 200 plus users are using this solution. It's good for the large scale of users. Compared to the other, in the first initial stage, before moving to GoAnywhere MFT, we deployed one open-source SFTP system. But it's very critical, we are not able to manage its high availability. Since GoAnywhere MFT is a reliable solution, it's good.
There is one open-source SFTP software. Compared to that SFTP, GoAnywhere MFT is the most reliable solution we can say. It does not crash or it rarely shows some issues. There are some issues, but it rarely shows some issues. But that SFTP solution we had implemented has lots of issues and bugs and glitches. Compared to that, it's very good.
How was the initial setup?
Deployment is pretty much straightforward.
It takes around two weeks to deploy.
What about the implementation team?
From the last eight months, maintenance is not complex to maintain. It barely required any maintenance, but maintenance is not a big thing. During the maintenance also, it doesn't go down. During the maintenance, it's able to share the file. It's easy, and easy in the sense it's reliable. During the maintenance also, it serves its purpose.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
The pricing aspect is not handled by the DevOps team, particularly. It's managed by the finance department, technical finance department. We don't have any particular clarity about the pricing.
The purchasing, that whole finance and purchasing, licensing, it doesn't come under the DevOps team. It's all handled by our finance team.
What other advice do I have?
There is one connector with SharePoint. But the thing is I don't have any technical idea about this, but there is an endpoint, connector endpoint.
I don't have any idea about this because I haven't deep dived much in these connectors.
We are not using any agents of GoAnywhere MFT.
I have to verify about secure forms, but we are sharing the file in encrypted format. Maybe this one is a secure form, then we are using it.
I'm not sure about that, so I'll say we are not using it.
There is a standard data transfer.
The recommendation is simple, if you are using the product for the large scale of users, then it's good. But if you are using it for a low number of users, 10 to 15, it's an overkill. And if you have some compliance, compliance policy that you require the encrypted files and auditing purpose, then SFTP is a good option. I would rate it a 10 overall.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Amazon Web Services (AWS)
