GREAT SERVICE
What do you like best about the product?
THE BEST THING IS THE EASE OF LOGGING INTO THE SERVICE, NO TRIPLE VERIFICATIONS
What do you dislike about the product?
THE IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION OF SERVICE IF YOU DONT PAY YOUR BILL
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
NONE
I have found that ENGYTE is a powerful collaborative tool for a company using large directories.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the comments and version control.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not an easy way to open another tab when you preview a document. It would still be good to have the ability to lock the navigation on the left even while previewing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Accountability and security from important documents being deleted but later realizing that it was something needed. We are able to recover files and receive updates on our projects when things are added or modified.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
allow the ability to as needed open up another tab in the same directory.
Useful tool, especially in quarantine
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the new feature that Egnyte added recently that lets you show the document title in the URL. It makes it much easier to track down files after a link expires, e.g. search for what someone emailed you a link to in your downloads. it's also great that I can drag and drop open files onto the Egnyte web page to upload. I also like the feature that lets you send several links at once in an organized manner.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish I could control how long links remain active. I'm not sure if it's a feature that exists but my company has locked. If it does not exist though, would be great to control whether a link is good for 7 days, or 30, 60, 90 etc. We will sometimes send a pre-read to a client more than a week in advance and need to answer individual requests to re-send if the link expires.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Egnyte lets me share big files with clients without setting up special file sharing permissions. This also lets me work with their other agency partners seamlessly. Internally, I was used to using Air Drop to share files with team members. During quarantine, Egnyte has become an important tool for quickly sharing files internally as well. It's especially useful while we are developing a document; we can quickly send each other new versions without setting up a complicated OneDrive system of re-saving files and archiving old ones.... the OneDrive approach has led to version control issues and lost changes in the past.
When my computer malfunctioned and I lost access to my files for about a month, I was able to piece together a lot of lost work by downloading files I had shared through Egnyte. Files I share with Air Drop can't be tracked down that way.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Egnyte is a great file sharing tool, especially if you are working across different organizations or different technologies e.g. PC / Mac, client + vendor / consultant / agency
user friendly!
What do you like best about the product?
very easy to use, you can drag and drop to upload.
What do you dislike about the product?
renaming files is a little tedious. Moving things between folders is also a little tedious, but this is minor. Would be nice to be able to drag to move.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
great to connect to server through egnyte. It's almost faster to drag and drop in browser than to connect to server through VPN. It's also easy to send links to people when sharing . files.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
easy to use, fast efficient, and great for sharing files.
Love the connectivity that brings!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the fact that you can organize your day/week by priority or taste. it also allows me to be connected all the time with my coworkers.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel like a calendar option/feature would be great!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
connectivity with my coworkers! the day goes pretty smoothly because we all can work and share through egnyte.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just go for it! It's great!
OK for file sharing, but disastrous as a Mac OS server
What do you like best about the product?
Egnyte is OK if you only want to send file sharing links to others.
What do you dislike about the product?
As a cloud-based file server in a Mac OS environment, Egnyte is an unmitigated disaster. We had constant problems with files disappearing, files not being visible on the desktop level, files being locked, file versioning problems (what they call "conflict copies"). We placed countless service calls to resolve various serious issues, which sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. Not recommended at all, at least for a Mac-based workflow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing files. That's it. Of course, you could do the same with other file sharing services.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Implement your own internal server and use another service for file sharing.
Wonderful service that works.
What do you like best about the product?
Syncing capabilities and ability to work on all platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
We don't dislike anything about the service
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to sync all company documents, this included Quickbooks which we couldn't sync on Google Drive.
Easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Easy upload documents and share. Time of upload.
What do you dislike about the product?
Storage system of files shared are not easy to store in Onedrive. Doble storage system
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing sensible information easily.
I am in control of my sharing.
What do you like best about the product?
I control the links to my files that I would like to share. No more headache of sending "too large of a file" to anyone. There are so many options that come with it that it makes business run smooth and efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
The search option for folders isn't as accurate as they would be in a regular file on the computer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving if the files have to opened or not so then people are not able to say that they never received a file.
Egnyte makes it easy to collaborate with teammates and stay organized
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to save docs on the desktop app directly into the Egnyte drive. I also like the version control function, where you can see and access the versions of the documents.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that there isn't a clear way to upload a new version of a doc directly into the existing file path.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been able to be maintain a working, living document with many teammates without having to pass versions back and forth via email.
