As a Service Delivery Manager, my main use case for GoAnywhere MFT is to securely automate file transfer between internal systems and external partners, ensuring that the compliance of both the internal organization and the customer organization is met. I also use this for encrypted transfer of files and for end-to-end visibility of all data movements.

One key workflow I automated with GoAnywhere MFT is the daily SFTP transfer of large financial reports from my internal data warehouse to a client's secure endpoint. The workflow includes PGP encryption, automatic retry logic, email alerts on failure, and audit logging, which has reduced my manual intervention and improved both security and the reliability of my team.

Apart from this, I also use GoAnywhere MFT to automate scheduled data feeds between my internal application and third-party vendors using secure protocols as well as APIs, which include validation steps, error handling, and audit tracking.

GoAnywhere MFT offers strong security and encryption support to various secure protocols like SFTP, FTP, FTPS, and HTTPS, along with automated workflow and scheduling features. I can build automated processes with triggers and folder monitoring to ensure that the files are transferred and processing happens without manual interruption. The audit and compliance support provide a single interface to manage all transfers with detailed audit reporting and report generation, which helps me comply with security compliance standards such as PCI, HIPAA, and GDPR.

The biggest difference GoAnywhere MFT made to my company is that it provided strong encryption, secure protocols, and centralized access control, significantly improving how I protect my sensitive data during transfer and reducing the risk of compliance issues and data breaches.

A handy feature I appreciate is the inbuilt alerting and notification system, which immediately notifies me if there is a failure or delay in the task, helping my team respond faster and maintain the SLAs.

Overall, GoAnywhere MFT has positively impacted my organization by reducing manual effort through automation, strengthening data security with encrypted and secure transfer protocols, and simplifying compliance with centralized audit logs for adherence to my compliance requirements. I have reduced manual transfer work by approximately 30 to 35 percent through the automation GoAnywhere MFT provides, and I have also noticed a significant drop in my transfer errors now that validation is done by GoAnywhere MFT, along with centralized audit logs and reporting.

While there is not a lot for improvement, the UI interface could use a modern touch to avoid its outdated appearance for faster navigation in the console.

Regarding the integration aspect, it would be beneficial for GoAnywhere MFT to provide out-of-the-box connectors for modern SAP platforms, and having faster support ticket responses along with more proactive guidance on better configuration practices would greatly assist my team managing larger workloads.

I have been using GoAnywhere MFT for the last two and a half years.

My advice for others considering GoAnywhere MFT is that it is very powerful, and they should utilize the training provided by the vendors to maximize the use of the software. I recommend leveraging its automation features early and setting up clear monitoring and alerts so that issues can be quickly detected. Additionally, it is essential to plan the workflows and security requirements before the purchase or implementation of this product. I would rate my experience with GoAnywhere MFT as an eight out of ten.

GoAnywhere MFT was purchased for its capacity for automation in file sharing, as I had a big load of work to share. Since I had a very big workload for one or two persons, it was costly. I looked at that when I would be hiring other people to help me in file management and file transfer, and it would have been quite expensive. At that moment, I decided to purchase GoAnywhere MFT for the purpose of file transfer and also for forming secure file requests from different locations and different people.

What I appreciate about GoAnywhere MFT is its automation process, which helps me schedule bulk tasks or multiple tasks at different times, and they automatically work upon themselves when the scheduled time reaches. Secondly, I want to discuss its compatibility; you can use it on the desktop as well as it has a mobile application, whereby if you have not moved with a laptop, you can easily use the mobile application to check on the processes and how they are running. The feature I value most is data encryption; this tool is highly encrypted, and when you share sensitive data, it is shared with encryption that cannot be tampered with during the transfer process. Additionally, it offers something complex in file sharing, and its deployment is also easy, allowing deployment either on cloud or premises, depending on the type of servers you are using at that moment, which gives a bigger chance that there is no limitation in deploying it.

GoAnywhere MFT has helped us save costs, especially where there is a need to hire more workers to assist in file monitoring. GoAnywhere MFT can handle multiple tasks, and in this process, it saves costs. Another benefit is sharing files in time, as files are being shared as scheduled. Work becomes effortless since things can be done through automation. I also want to mention another benefit related to integration with other software, as it has connectors that connect with tools such as Google Drive and OneDrive. This allows easy and error-free transfer of data saved on those platforms. Additionally, it provides strong encryption, ensuring that sensitive data is shared privately and confidentially without any challenges.

The challenge I faced with GoAnywhere MFT was during the purchasing process when I had to request a quotation before receiving pricing. If the purchasing process could be made more straightforward, similar to other tools where prices are standard and publicly displayed, it would be easier for clients who want quick purchases without many steps.

In actual sense, the features I use for my organization meet my requirements, so I do not see any other features that should be improved upon.

This is my second year using GoAnywhere MFT.

I find GoAnywhere MFT very stable; even if a transfer process does not succeed on the first trial, the system automatically retries to resubmit the commands. I have never encountered crashes or maintenance issues.

I do not see limitations with its scalability; it runs well.

I normally interact with the customer service team only when I want to add a new license. In this process, they are very friendly and responsive, faster than other services, especially when we recently wanted to add another license for another user.

Before GoAnywhere MFT, I was doing file transfers using Microsoft SharePoint and Google Drive, but those tools did not offer a unified feature set that GoAnywhere MFT provides.

I did not find many challenges in deployment because most of the work was done with GoAnywhere MFT team, and I was just following their instructions, which made the process straightforward.

Before choosing GoAnywhere MFT, I had done a survey over other tools and ran software tests. I tested M-Files, and although it has file management and transfer features, it also has complex parts. When I found GoAnywhere MFT, I realized it is specified for file transfers and management, which is why I chose it.

When I was purchasing GoAnywhere MFT, I went directly to their website. When I went to their website, I had to schedule a demo, and after the demo, they made a quotation for me. Then it was just direct from the website.

I use connectors because before purchasing GoAnywhere MFT, I was using Microsoft tools such as SharePoint to organize my files. So, when I purchased GoAnywhere MFT, I connected it with the other connectors I was using. For example, before when I was using SharePoint to save data and transfer information, I had certain information on those tools. So, in the process of connection, it made it easy to access those files from SharePoint to GoAnywhere MFT, enabling me to share those files freely without any limitation.

I cannot comment on the range of connectors because my point of focus has been on the few connectors I used, which are only three, so I have not focused on the range. I find GoAnywhere MFT's connectors very beneficial because they help in information sharing from those connectors. They allow access to information from other tools, making it easy to share and download files, manually or through the automatic sharing process, thereby limiting errors when sharing these tools after connecting with GoAnywhere MFT.

I use GoAnywhere MFT Agents because some individuals in remote areas from our main servers need to access the agent form to share information in those remote areas. GoAnywhere MFT Agent is beneficial because individuals in remote areas can use it to load and process information, which then gets submitted to the control center where we have the central server. These agents help simplify some work and reduce the workload at the center.

I use GoAnywhere MFT's secure forms; these secure forms enable you to access information from team members and others. Instead of contacting team members directly, you can use these secure forms to request the information you want. The secure forms are impactful; they enable team members or groups to share information, and they are customizable, allowing you to add fields for the type of information you want to share. They also use encryption to ensure that the information shared through them cannot be tampered with.

I use the GoFast feature together with a tool called GoDrive. The GoFast feature helps me share files more easily; when I work with these tools together, it allows for faster file sharing than other tools, as documents can be compressed during sharing, which reduces file size and increases speed.

GoAnywhere MFT has saved my time in connecting securely with third parties I need to collaborate with. I cannot determine the exact amount of time saved, but it saves a lot. I can run programs overnight with automation, leaving everything to run while I am free during the day, sometimes even working from home.

I recommend other organizations to try GoAnywhere MFT because it offers trial days before purchasing, allowing organizations to test its effectiveness before committing. My overall rating for GoAnywhere MFT is a ten out of ten.

I have been working with GoAnywhere MFT for approximately 1.9 years, approaching two years.Our company operates as system integrators, and we need to transfer confidential files, quotations, and purchase orders that are highly sensitive to our organization. If quotations and other sensitive materials are shared with another person within our organization, they require significant confidentiality protections. We use GoAnywhere MFT to share materials on a secured platform. We can share anything encrypted, which allows us to securely share files within our network as well as outside our network to partners and customers. We feel confident that files are going into safe hands.We don't provide services for GoAnywhere MFT, but our line of business is different; we're using this product for our own operations.We purchased GoAnywhere MFT from partners. I don't have detailed information on that because it comes through the sales side, but I know we purchased from a partner rather than from the Marketplace.

The first thing we appreciate most is that it supports various protocols, and we have integrated SSO with our existing SSO infrastructure, adding a two-layer security system. This helps us prevent data loss and keep files from reaching persons who are not authorized to view them. We also value the detailed logging and reporting system. If someone needs to see to whom all these files were sent, we can easily track it; it is quite helpful for compliance purposes.The best features in GoAnywhere MFT include reporting and audit features, which make our work easier because we can send a bulk of files and integrate with our other tools. We have also integrated it with Microsoft Office, which is an added capability for us, and the ease of integration makes it much better than any other vendors.We have integrated GoAnywhere MFT with Office 365 and Microsoft Teams because integrating with Office simultaneously integrates with Teams and all Microsoft tools.I believe GoAnywhere MFT has a vast range of connectors compared to other competitors, according to my knowledge. We have only used Progress before GoAnywhere MFT, and I think the range of integration is much wider with GoAnywhere MFT.This integration is very important as it increases our productivity; we don't need to have many software solutions for everything, and by integrating with Office 365, once we send materials, they reach everyone. It helps us increase our productivity, and our ROI has also increased.

There are two main things I would like to see improved in GoAnywhere MFT. The first is the slightly poor customer technical support team, and second, the user interface needs to be customized because it looks somewhat outdated compared to other products. They could also consider adding AI features; I think they are working on that, but there is still more to do.To be honest, we don't have many complaints about GoAnywhere MFT, but as previously mentioned, the user interface needs to be changed. There is sometimes sluggishness because we have deployed it on the cloud, possibly due to weak connectors.

I have been working with GoAnywhere MFT for approximately 1.9 years, approaching two years.

GoAnywhere MFT is stable, but once a month or sometimes it feels sluggish, possibly due to our network. We can't say for sure since we always check network connectivity and cloud availability, but the sluggishness is minimal at only about one to two percent at times.

GoAnywhere MFT is scalable. We currently have three of our lines of business using it, and we are planning to implement it globally.

It was our sales team's decision to switch to GoAnywhere MFT. I don't know the details, but it was a good decision; we prefer this product much better than Progress because of extensive third-party integration and ease of deployment within one month.I would rate the support at six out of ten.

I've heard from my sales representative that the pricing is a little high, but compared to the work it does, it is worth the investment. We have limited licenses in our organization, but it is worth it.

GoAnywhere MFT has saved our time in connecting securely with third parties. Earlier, projects took us about ten days; now it is down to around five or six days.

GoAnywhere MFT is scalable, and we currently have three of our lines of business using it.We are planning to implement it globally.

We have only used Progress before GoAnywhere MFT, and I think the range of integration is much wider with GoAnywhere MFT.

Sometimes I've seen my colleague using the GoFast feature, and it really helps accelerate the transfer of files. GoFast is designed to support faster protocols such as SFTP and FTP. I have heard that it is robust, allowing for sharing a large number of files securely using TLS.Honestly, we don't have any disadvantages with GoAnywhere MFT at this point. Everything is going well, but in the future, we may not know what could happen. The support team should also fix issues quickly.GoAnywhere MFT is stable, but once a month or sometimes it feels sluggish, possibly due to our network. We can't say for sure since we always check network connectivity and cloud availability, but the sluggishness is minimal at only about one to two percent at times.I gave GoAnywhere MFT an overall rating of nine out of ten.

I use GoAnywhere MFT for automating and securing file transfers because our company mainly uses credential data. It is very mandatory to transfer it very securely. We use SFTP and FTPS for data file transfer for ERP, CRM, or databases. We also have trading partners, so it is very essential to transfer the data securely.

The main connection is AWS S3, as we use S3 for our primary storage. We have also connected GoAnywhere MFT to Salesforce. We connect it with Azure Blob for unstructured data. We have integrated AWS, Azure, and Salesforce.

For operations, we access control for administrators and external users through GoAnywhere's connectors. We authenticate against Active Directory. GoAnywhere has gateways to prevent firewall access and has a very secure network system. It is really helpful for connecting all these cloud platforms. The main reason is auditing. The detailed centralized audit logs and reporting are invaluable. Sometimes we lost lots of data, so it helps us keep backups.

The connectors are very important in GoAnywhere MFT. Connection with cloud is a crucial process because there is no chance of any errors. In that scenario, connectors properly handle all the network and all the audit logs. Connectors are very essential. Without connectors, we cannot do it manually because it gets very difficult to maintain all this process.

Till now, I personally do not use GoAnywhere Agents. My seniors have used it a lot, but I do not have any hands-on experience with that right now.

We use many lots of data in the form of secure forms, such as survey forms or employee forms. We use it a lot in our data pipelines.

In one project, I used the secure form. The scenario was about the landing pages of the GoAnywhere MFT server or something. The main process was that data collection was there and allows our organization to collect files and structured data. Forms and metadata from external parties are collected directly onto the secure environment. We have used secure forms whenever we collect the data from a third party. When we collect the data from a third party, there might be a lot of incorrect data or null values, so we have used the secure form there.

We mostly use GoFast feature on large data sets. On many cloud platforms, it took a long time to process that data or to transfer that data because we use terabytes of data in the daily workflow. GoFast really helps us transmit that data or do all the ETL processes on that data so efficiently and in a fast manner. Our ETL process was very slow on the traditional database, but when we started using GoAnywhere MFT, the whole workflow or data pipeline got very faster. It is a great feature for us.

Whenever we do meetings, I analyze all the timing saved because of all the automation in GoAnywhere MFT. Right now in our company, because of the automation processes, our DevOps team is saving time around 45 percent to 50 percent overall because of the automation. We are still improving our whole infrastructure and workflows for 70 percent to 80 percent automation, which will save the time around 60 percent to 70 percent. Right now 40 percent to 50 percent time is saving because of GoAnywhere MFT and automation.

I have multiple automations or processes happening within my organization, but they run on different platforms, such as different servers or using different APIs.

There is an individual team to manage these processes. I mainly work with data engineers to help them manage the data extraction, the cloud platform, and the infrastructure of our cloud platform. There is an individual team which has all the responsibilities of their respective departments. Each department has their tools and all the technicalities. I know about my tools. We use GoAnywhere MFT for file transfer, AWS and Azure for cloud, I also use Snowflake for sometimes helping the data engineers, and Docker.

The main reason behind using GoAnywhere MFT is automation. Earlier, we used to do many manual processes for maintaining all the data pipelines, and we were planning for automation. GoAnywhere MFT really helps in this scenario because it eliminates all the manual scripting in Linux and reduces human errors. It significantly saves time. Its protocols are very secure as compared to other platforms. It ensures data is encrypted in transmission and also for backup. The audit trails and reporting are very helpful. All these features are really helpful in our daily work.

The whole impact of using GoAnywhere MFT was very positive from the starting. It has significantly improved our security by centralizing all the file transfers under one secure and auditable platform. It has also boosted operational efficiency by automating repetitive tasks and allowing our whole IT staff to focus on higher-value work. It has definitely added overall positive impact on our organization.

I do not think there is any improvement needed in GoAnywhere MFT because right now it is working great. The UI is a little bit old and could be improved, but overall, it is the best. Till now, I do not have any complaints about that.

I would really want to see AI integration in GoAnywhere MFT. Right now, I cannot say all the processes are on automation. There is a need for human process. If the AI integration would be there for whole automation in the future, it will be very fine because it took a little bit of time. AI integration would be better for all the automation processes.

It has been around 1.5 to 1.7 years that I have been working with GoAnywhere MFT as a DevOps engineer.

Regarding the experience with the stability of GoAnywhere MFT, I would say it is 80 percent to 90 percent stable. We have faced some kind of bugs or it took some loading time whenever the data set is very large, but it is okay. All the platforms take some time to load the data. We never faced any major bugs or major loads. It works efficiently and it is quite stable.

We have integrated GoAnywhere MFT with our cloud platform, so it is very scalable because we have to keep our whole architecture and cloud platform scalable. We extract lots of streaming data from our clients or our customers, so we have to be prepared for scaling. That is the reason to use GoAnywhere MFT along with the cloud platform because it provides the best scalability. We never faced any issue about scalability such as shortage of storage or any other kind of issue. It is very scalable.

Technical support for GoAnywhere MFT is very helpful. Personally, I have connected with them many times for learning the new features. When I was facing some learning issues in a feature, they helped me many times. Whenever we faced any issue such as some bugs or service errors, we have connected them and they really solve all the problems in a very quick manner. Their customer service is very great. Sometimes they took some long time to solve the issue, but they definitely solve the issue.

I would say nine because the tech support is great for GoAnywhere MFT. They really solve our problems which satisfies us. The platform is also very stable, scalable, and powerful. It is totally reliable to add it in our work. I would say nine out of ten to the customer service.

I just came here at this company, Proton Labs, one year ago, so I do not know about which platform they were using before GoAnywhere MFT. They have been using this software from the last two to two and a half years, so I do not know which tool they were using before that.

The setup is not so complicated. The installation is very straightforward, especially with the platform being multi-platform compatible. We have installed it on Windows, Linux, and also on hybrid cloud. The configuration is very basic. It does not need any complicated learning or any experts' visionary. There was some challenging part that the complexity of designing and the fine-tuning is very advanced, so it needs some expert expertise. Otherwise, all the installation was very straightforward.

We only use GoAnywhere MFT for that before.

I have a little idea about that from the pricing point of view regarding GoAnywhere MFT. As compared to other tools, such as clouds like GCP or AWS, I would say it is quite affordable in comparison with these cloud platforms and any other tools. It is quietly on the higher side, but it is okay because it provides a wonderful service. The customer service is great, so it is worth it.

I do not have any idea about the pricing, but I would say in case of benefits, GoAnywhere MFT really saves our time because before using it, my manager said the whole process was on manual mode and it was very time-consuming. Right now, our 50 percent to 60 percent workflow is on automation. The ETL process is on automation via GoAnywhere MFT to the cloud. It really saves our time. I can tell about time saving, but I do not have any idea about pricing.

I would recommend GoAnywhere MFT to a colleague at another company who says they the features, but the price of the solution is a bit high. It is primarily for organizations that need centralized and secure and automate a high volume of file transfer to meet their security and all the requirements. Only if they are ready to invest on the higher side. GoAnywhere MFT is really providing a great service, so they have to invest in it, even if it is on the higher side. It is their choice. I would recommend that it is a very good platform and it is really secure and helps to automate all the things in file transfer. I would definitely want to recommend them, but it is their choice after all, about the price.

The one major recommendation I would give about GoAnywhere MFT is to use it very securely because one error could just interrupt your whole file transfer or might lose your credential data. Use it very securely because one error could really lose your credential data. I would give this review a rating of nine out of ten.

I have used GoAnywhere MFT for secure file transfer automation. The primary use for this product is scheduling automated file transfers, managing SFTP and FTPS connections, and creating workflows for system-to-system file movement, as well as secure data exchange between internal and external systems.

The most impressive feature of GoAnywhere MFT is the strong security options. It supports encryption, secure protocols, auditing, and key management. Additionally, the centralized administration is excellent, with everything managed from one dashboard. The product is also stable for large file transfers. These are the best features I have experienced over six months.

GoAnywhere MFT agent is useful for automating tasks on remote servers without exposing them publicly. This is the main agent use I am utilizing in GoAnywhere MFT.

Secure Forms features in GoAnywhere MFT allow safe data collection directly from users with automatic routing and encryption. This is the Secure Forms feature I am currently using in my project.

GoFast noticeably improves transfer speed for large files in GoAnywhere MFT by accelerating file transfers in distributed environments.

GoAnywhere MFT supports connectors for multiple systems, including SAP, database, cloud storage, and REST APIs. I am specifically using the SAP integration through SAP connectors and APIs.

One of the main important improvements I need for GoAnywhere MFT is a better real-time monitoring dashboard and an improved user interface. I think a more modern and user-friendly interface would be beneficial, as multiple competing products have modern and user-friendly interfaces. Additionally, better debugging tools and clearer error logs would be helpful.

When I started using GoAnywhere MFT, I experienced complexities for projects that required experience to create them. The error logs can be hard to understand at first sight. However, with continued use of this product, I became more familiar and comfortable with it.

I believe GoAnywhere MFT could be more stable and enterprise-friendly overall. It is a strong and reliable solution for secure file transfers and workflow automation, offering excellent security features and dependable performance. The main areas of improvement are the user interface and debugging simplicity.

I have been using GoAnywhere MFT for more than six months.

GoAnywhere MFT supports active-active clustering, meaning more than one MFT instance can run in parallel. For load balancing, it can be more scalable for companies distributed across their cluster nodes, improving throughput. If one node fails, the system remains scalable. GoAnywhere MFT can be deployed on-premises, in the cloud such as AWS or Azure, or in any hybrid model. This flexibility makes it suitable for both large-scale and small-scale companies depending on the requirements of the company.

The price range for GoAnywhere MFT is around four to five thousand dollars annually. Since it is a large-scale product, the price can be adjustable within this range.

I have used IBM Sterling as an alternative to GoAnywhere MFT. GoAnywhere MFT is easier and more stable than IBM Sterling, and it is also more enterprise-friendly. It is less expensive than Cleo but has fewer advanced APIs. Overall, it offers better automation than many basic SFTP servers and provides a good balance of security, automation, and integration at an enterprise level.

I would rate this product an 8 out of 10.

I use GoAnywhere MFT for file transfers and basic workflow automation.

What I like the most about GoAnywhere MFT is the automation; once the workflow is set, it handles the transfers very reliably and without any manual effort.

The file transfer agents in GoAnywhere MFT are very important to me; they run on scheduled workflows, move files, and monitor directories, keeping the automation running even when I am not logged in and handling the task consistently in the background, so I do not have to do anything or worry.

Some parts of the GoAnywhere MFT interface feel a bit outdated, and a few things are buried too deep, requiring me to search extensively for them. GoAnywhere MFT can improve the navigation of their interface and make some advanced configurations easier to find.

I have been using GoAnywhere MFT for about three to four months.

It happened once about a month ago that I experienced some downtime with GoAnywhere MFT for approximately one hour, but it did not cause me too much of an issue.

GoAnywhere MFT scales well for me, and I have the option to add many more workflows, connections, and agents without the system slowing down, handling growing workloads really well, so I can rely on that.

I have not contacted the technical support of GoAnywhere MFT yet; I have not had the chance.

I have not used any alternatives to GoAnywhere MFT at this organizational level and have not paid for any software before this one.

The initial deployment of GoAnywhere MFT was manageable; some parts needed a bit of learning, but overall it was straightforward. Once the basic steps were done, then it was all right.

It took me a few days to fully deploy GoAnywhere MFT, approximately two or three days, and I tested the workflows after the actual installation, which also took a few days but not very long.

Maintenance for GoAnywhere MFT is very little, mostly just checking the logs, updating the credentials, and adjusting the workflows if something changes in my organization, that is all, nothing extraordinary.

Regarding the pricing of GoAnywhere MFT, I feel it is fair for the features that they offer; it may seem high if you are using it for basic transfers only, but the pricing is fair if you are taking complete advantage of the features that they provide.

I have used the connectors included in GoAnywhere MFT, mainly for SFTP and FTPs, setting them up to establish secure connections and then using them inside workflows to automate the file transfers between systems. I would rate this product a 9 out of 10.
