Learning curve pretty high, but works great for our file transfers to the cloud!
What do you like best about the product?
I use a very small piece in GoAnywhere (Resources & Workflows for SFTP Transfers), but there is so much available that the options are unlimited. We now have files transferring hourly, daily, & weekly to our cloud environment. I appreciate everything available including scheduling, monitors, reports, and notifications. It really makes it nice to set it up and forget it, but also receive emails if something fails.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am not a programmer and worked with our system engineer to set up our transfers and he was also new to GoAnywhere. When he got stuck, GoAnywhere Support provided the answers and after much trial and error, we finally got everything working. I did finally get training, but it was too high level. Instead, it would be nice to receive detailed training on setting up different Resources & Projects with all the options before we started using the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Both initial data/file transfers when migrating a system to the cloud and then ongoing data/file transfers for processing in the cloud application.
Easy to use file transfer solution
What do you like best about the product?
I like the availability of automation features in goanywhere. Also the interface is really great and easy to use even for a first time user.
What do you dislike about the product?
No negative as such. But sometimes I felt the customer service could be better.

Secure sharing for files by encryption features
oAnywhere MFT Cut Down Our Transfer Errors and Saved Hours Weekly
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about GoAnywhere MFT is the automation and visibility it gives us over file transfers. Earlier, we were relying on custom scripts and manual scheduling, which made it hard to track failures or prove compliance during audits. With GoAnywhere, every transfer is logged with detailed audit trails, so I don’t need to chase logs across multiple servers anymore.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the initial setup can feel a bit overwhelming because there are so many configuration options. Few features like PGP key management and advanced triggers weren’t immediately intuitive without digging through documentation. I also wish the web interface was a little more modern and responsive, as it can feel dated compared to other enterprise tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before GoAnywhere, we had multiple teams running their own file transfer scripts, which led to duplicate work, missed transfers, and no centralized logging. GoAnywhere MFT solved that by giving us a single platform where all transfers are automated, monitored, and secured.
The biggest benefit has been compliance—auditors now get full visibility into who sent what, when, and how. It also reduced the time we spend troubleshooting; instead of searching through server logs, we get instant alerts if something fails. Overall, it’s helped us standardize processes, cut down on errors, and save hours every week that used to be spent on manual checks.

GoAnywhere MFT Review: Securing College Data Transfers
What do you like best about the product?
It keeps file transfers safe and also makes it easier for students, staff, and administration to work together in one system. It also protects data and makes it easy for different departments to work together.
What do you dislike about the product?
getting meaningful insights into transfer patterns, performance trends, or usage analytics requires significant manual efforts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Building complex file transfer processes with conditional logic, transformations, and multi-system integrations takes minutes instead of hours of scripting . Our admins can now handle workflows that used to require our senior developers.
Secure, Reliable, and Automated File Transfer Solution
What do you like best about the product?
I like how it supports multiple secure protocols (SFTP, FTPS, HTTPS, AS2) in one place, so we don’t need to rely on different tools. It makes file transfers across teams and partners much easier and more secure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Initial setup and configuration require some technical expertise, so a beginner may find it a bit overwhelming. Pricing is also on the higher side for smaller organizations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has significantly improved efficiency and reduced risks compared to manual methods. It helps us automate recurring transfers, reduce errors, and maintain security.
GoAnywhere: Very Highly Capable, At Times Tedious
What do you like best about the product?
In my eyes I'm a long time user of GoAnywhere 5ish years and use it often. My favorite thing about GoAnywhere is it's extensibility. It truly can go anywhere, if you know what you're doing. I've written custom integration connections with DayForce, NetSuite (JODBC, SOAP, and REST), Prophet 21, and BigQuery all with GoAnywhere's custom cloud connector support.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that I can't open multiple workflows / addons at once, without issues saving. As a power user, when things get complicated I don't like that issues can be hard to track down at times. Project organization and documentation is limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use or have used GoAnywhere for ERP integrations, web services integrations, and EDI workflows among other random one-off use cases.
Best for automate and keep data transfer compliant
What do you like best about the product?
I like how it handle the secure file transfer, without me being worrying about the protocol or encryption details. The Automation work flow saves a lot of time compare to doing by ourself. The interface is pretty easy once you get used to it,and it integrate well with our exisiting system and cloud storage.It also keep detailed log which makes complaince reporting much easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Initial set up is bit complex.Few advance setting was very tough as I was new to it which were made easy with the help of documentation and contant support. Also the web inteface could be bit faster whenloading a large file. The rest is very reliable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping in sending file securely without running manual script. before this we have to use different tool and script for each trasnfer which was slow and error prone.
Secure file transfer solution for our cloud modernization programs
What do you like best about the product?
We used GoAnywhere MFT mainly for moving files from different on-prem healthcare systems to Azure for our cloud data platform.
We used it to pull files from systems like SAP and other EHR/EMR sources and then move those to Azure Blob and mount in Databricks
Best things i noticed,
The trigger-based jobs are useful for automating things without too much manual work
SFTP, FTPS support
Audit logs helped during compliance
Reusable templates for file transfers
Biggest help was reducing manual scripts and FTP headaches
Also useful for handling file encryption/decryption (PGP)

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We no longer depend on manual monitoring or custom FTP scripts — the automated triggers and alerts help a lot.
Overall, it reduced operational overhead and made our cloud data ingestion more streamlined and secure.
We had multiple on-prem systems sending files manually or through legacy scripts — GoAnywhere helped centralize and automate all of that.
It also helped us enforce encryption standards and maintain audit logs, which is important for HIPAA compliance.
