MFT made easy and functional!

  • June 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and intuitive interface lessens the administrative burden and allows rapid on-boarding of new admins. Of the all the MFT products we tested (and it was many), the GoAnywhere interface was by far the most efficient and intuitive. Additionally, the ease of installation, implementation, and administration is an absolute blessing. We have rolled out environments in just a couple of days and had users trained in the administration of the product in less than an hour. It just works!
What do you dislike about the product?
Like any GUI, there are some annoyances. When auditing large logs, the GUI can freeze and it makes auditing through the interface difficult until you can work in some sideways audit to free it up. Additionally, autocompletion of inputs will not fill in correctly (doesn't matter if you use FF or Chrome) and will accept the clicking of the choice as the input rather than allow autocomplete to fill in. Frustrating first world problems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We replaced our homegrown hand written file transfer architecture with GoAnywhere MFT. It immediately decreased admin overhead, performed better, and was more resilient than our scripts laying on top of SFTP processes. That alone made it a HUGE win.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for an all encompassing EDI/B2B/Do Everything suite with a large budget, little agility, and copious amounts of excess staff you can throw at a problem, then something from Axway or Cleo might be up your alley. If you want something to handle file transfers and actually decreases the administrative overhead burden already sitting on your admin's shoulders, then go with GoAnywhere. It works. Well. VERY Well.

Not much to dislike - but would sometime like to be able to see which other Administrators are currently logged in.

Secure file transfer on-premise and with Public internet partners. Benefits realized are a centralised Server and Client transfer location that is easy to co-ordinate and control from within the intuitive Admin pages.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ensure you install the latest stable software version and highest possible java JVM - any SMB network share transfers will greatly benefit from this.

  • June 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
GoAnywhere is very intuitive and has taken very little cross training for our I.T. team to become proficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish GoAnywhere had a method to set paths based upon the initial project in order to call subsequent projects. This would facilitate development, test, qa, production hierarchies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use GoAnywhere to manage our FTP transfers, ERP reporting via MS-Excel reports, and file uploads/downloads from our ERP.

Excellent Growth

  • June 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Long time user of GoAnywhere, its growth and improvements have been excellent and one of the reasons we continue to use GoAnywhere. It is a great solution when you have several siloed domains that need to share data in a secure manner. Even with external clients, you can control access. This is one of several things you can do, we leverage it for advanced workflows and ftp alternative because of its security. A lot of control is in your hands.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the features I hope they implement would be to allow control on what gets synchronized to the local storage with the godrive feature. Upgrading capabilities should also be streamlined within the app instead of the server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing internal data when all sites have no internetwork connectivity. We can create shares amongst them, we also have been able to create triggers and automatic workflows with data coming in through our ERP system for better functionality and internal process. Centralize FTP and SFTP connections.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good alternative for dropbox or box.com even onedrive.


    Consumer Goods

Extremely versatile and reliable.

  • June 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The support for multiple transfer methods and encryption standards, and that it runs on the IBM iSeries. The iSeries is the core platform for all our business systems, but the ability to move data to other applications on other platforms (Windows, AIX/Linux) has made GoAnywhere a critical application in our business processes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Setting up some types of communications and security accesses are not intuitive nor covered in enough detail in he user documentation, such as traditional EDI. However, the support people for he GoAnywhere products are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. They resolved all our issues in the early days of package usage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
EDI communications, XML transfers, SFTP/FTPS transfers, AS2 communications. Managing the various types of data exchanges we have through one package is extremely efficient as well as convenient..
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The GoAnywhere MFT product and the Gateway are worth the investment.

GoAnywhere, the perfect solution for file delivery

  • June 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
GoAnywhere is a powerful, "super-suite" of file delivery and data manipulation processes. For us it is the ease of using their powerful SFTP solution with their fantastic key management system.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not really dislike anything here, but perhaps if I had to mention something it would be the wish for a better "built-in" database option than Derby. This is insignificant really though since you can change it to anything else you want.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure and reliable data delivery to our customers. Manipulation of raw data into it's file deliverable format. With the ability of GoAnywhere to monitor for file changes, we have easily begun to completely automate file transfers to customers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider your needs, SFTP, HTTPS, FTP, FTPS or any combination. GoAnywhere does it better than the rest.
Data manipulation and storage. Security. GoAnywhere takes all of this into consideration.

What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility of GoAnywhere MFT is our favorite feature, it can be configured to automate so many of the tasks we used to perform manually or with clunky Linux scripts. With GoAnywhere MFT we have full logging and auditing capabilities, and the advanced reporting tools are excellent.

There is a bit of a learning curve to becoming proficient with GoAnywhere MFT but the staff at HelpSystems offers customized training and that really helped us to help kickstart our team and ramp our skills up quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of the major benefits we have realized is consistency and stability in our file transfer infrastructure. Our Enterprise currently moves over a million files a week and the stability and efficiency of GoAnywhere MFT has really helped us become more productive.

Take the plunge and try the tool. Our auditors have been thrilled with the features, functions, and security built into GoAnywhere MFT.
