Egnyte has been useful for securely sharing confidential data with our bioanalytical vendors. Additionally, our vendors have not raised any concerns about using the platform.
Ease of Collaboration with Robust Security
What do you like best about the product?
I find Egnyte incredibly valuable for file sharing and ensuring file security, which is crucial in our line of work. One of the features I appreciate the most is the platform's ability to allow easy collaboration with my coworkers. The live update capability enhances our productivity as it allows us to seamlessly work on files together without delays. Its compatibility with Microsoft Excel online is another highlight for me because I am already familiar with the software, which makes the workflow smooth and efficient. Moreover, I value Egnyte's strong security protocols, despite the occasional challenge they pose, because they give me confidence in the safety of our shared files. The ease of setting up Egnyte for our team was also noteworthy, making the transition from using email for file sharing a seamless process. Overall, Egnyte's combination of robust security, ease of collaboration, and user-friendly setup makes it an indispensable tool for our team.

I find the security measures in Egnyte sometimes too robust, which makes it difficult for me to access my account. It's a struggle to manage when the security is so tight that even as a legitimate user, I encounter hurdles in logging in.

Effortless File Uploads, Struggles on Mobile
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate how Egnyte simplifies the handling of large video files by making it easy to upload multiple large files simultaneously, which is particularly valuable for tasks that exceed the capacities of email attachments. The platform is also user-friendly, requiring minimal setup; after my company set up my account, logging in was straightforward and I was instantly ready to use the service. This ease of use is a significant benefit, making Egnyte an efficient tool for managing file uploads without unnecessary complexity. The simplicity and effectiveness of Egnyte in this regard make it a highly recommendable service, as evidenced by my rating of 10 out of 10 for recommending it to friends or colleagues.

Egnyte Delivers Reliable Remote Access Anywhere
What do you like best about the product?
Egnyte has truly been a lifesaver for our company. Although we have always used a VPN, accessing it from different locations was often a challenge. Since switching to Egnyte, that issue has been completely resolved. After the pandemic, most of us have been working remotely, either from home or while traveling, with team members based in Connecticut, Virginia, Florida, and Oklahoma, as well as our sales and marketing staff on the road across the country. No matter where we are, we can always rely on having secure, consistent, and dependable access to our files. We have also made heavy use of the ability for outside users to send us large files seamlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Since switching to Egnyte, the only problem we've encountered is that, from time to time, we need to reinstall the desktop client. Occasionally, it loses its connection to Egnyte, and the only solution seems to be reinstalling the software. Thankfully, this issue only arises once or twice a year.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With our workforce spread across different locations, Egnyte enables us to collaborate smoothly no matter where we are. Furthermore, the convenience of not having to manage local data servers, handle backups, or deal with ongoing maintenance easily justifies the cost of the service.
Would definitely recommend.
What do you like best about the product?
It was easy to implement, easy to use, backups are great
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice if they made it easier to do local backups. Also quite costly, but worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Works great with remote employees across the US. File speed is great.
Effortless Access and Editing with an Intuitive Interface
What do you like best about the product?
easy interface, easy to access, easy to edit folders and assets as needed
What do you dislike about the product?
the expiration limits imposed for each folder share can be limiting and too short of a time frame
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
egnyte makes it easy for me to share confidential assets with external partners due to the secure line of sharing mechanisms
once they have you, they don't make it easy for you to leave
What do you like best about the product?
certainly not their customer service. Right now I cant find anything to like about them
What do you dislike about the product?
Do not get into bed with this company. I loved them until I tried to leave them. We had a situation come up that forced us to switch our provider (not Egnyte's fault, very restrictive terms from one of our software companies that would not connect with Egnyte), and I notified them 10 days before our renewal. Citing some 30-day cancellation period from the terms I read when I signed up with them at least 5 years ago, they insist on billing me for another year, as I was on annual billing. Told them I understood if they had 30-day terms, then please take me to monthly billing and then cancel after 30 days. Nope, wont do that. must pay for the full next year even though I won't be using it at all and spent an entire weekend getting my data off there. But yet they didn't mind calling and emailing me to upsell me within that 30 day notice period! Their terms are completely one-sided and trust me, it's not your side! So just their next dollar is all the care and concern they have for small business.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
they are no longer solving problems for me, another provider is. Egnyte was good for storage of non personal information, never had any issues with their product. It was a good and easy way for us to store our training products without chewing up space on our server. I also stored training products for clients, but found the sharing to be a bit difficult as we didn't want clients to see anything but the one item we wanted them to see
