Great Support very good product overall

What do you like best about the product?
Hi,

we got GoAnywhere from the german vendor as we are in Austria. The support with the setup was great and ever since it's working fine - hardly need anything on that server that we did dedicate for GoAnywhere.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is hardly anything to dislike. Only point I would take here is the standard databse - we moved it to MS SQL and since that everything is perfect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
EDI-AS2-Transfer, FTP, SFTP, FTPS,
Recommendations to others considering the product:
a clear yes

Bought GoAnywhere MFT AS2 Server and Client

  • June 22, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We where looking for an off the self implementation of an AS2 Server and Client that we could easily intergrate with our systems on AWS. GoAnywhere MFT was the perfect match. Their presales partner helped us with a trial license and then we did a extensive POC . We also ended up buying advance reporting and advance workflows. Thoroughly delighted with the choice we made can see that reflect of our customers as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
We are based out of India and had to go through a partner. The Partner did extremely well to support us through the evaluation and the purchase but we did see some lag in getting some support question that the partner had to go back to GoAnywhere.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
AS2 Server and Client for a Vendor Partner

GoAnywhere really goes almost anywhere!!

  • June 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility - it can do reporting, data transfers transfers, connect to web services, etc. There are monitors and triggers to help speed processing.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Send Email System is Not Stable -- Support hasn't been able to resolve.

We recently found an issue where we were running a Trigger to process an Inbound file. The trigger ran a CL on the AS/400. The CL was getting a MSGW (i.e. going into error). When that happened, it would not let anyone else connect to the system (via sFTP) -- it just wouldn't respond to them. However, there was no notification that the system was locking up due to a job -- it would just lock up. Sometimes it would go hours until we would find it. At first, I was taking down the whole system and bringing it back up as I didn't know that there was a job hiding out that was causing everything. I wish the system would've reported that in some manner.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It almost 'does it all'. We bought it to do File Transfers on the System i (AS/400) -- a replacement for ZMod TruExchange. However, we found that we can also initiate transfers from .NET via Web Service calls, use it to generate reports to Excel Spreadsheets (including formatting columns -- we would've had to write programs for some of the awesome reporting uses) as well. We have since purchased Secure Folders and Inbound FTP and have utilized Monitors and Triggers to provide faster response time to processes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you give it a chance, you will find it will give you more than you could expect.

GDPR File Transfer Saviour

  • June 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The data encryption at rest was the primary reason for purchase of a new product over our old one but we found this product did so much more and was modular enough to pick and choose what we required.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can take some time to configure as it is quite a powerful product and unfortunately there aren't wizards to follow, but once you get used to it, it does become quite intuitive to set up. We did the configuration in house but would recommend configuration from a third party if your team is short of research time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Meets GDPR requirements + has many many features
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you know what each module of the product does and get advice on what you are trying to achieve

Nice managed file transfer product

  • June 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
the killer features of MFT anywhere are Active directory integration (even if the MFT server is in a DMZ, apart from the domain controller... only ldap access is needed), and the secure mail feature (a bit like wetransfer, but managed, and can be used for requesting a file as well, not only to send a file
What do you dislike about the product?
actually ther eis a drawback... its interface is only in English
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
controlling file transfers from and to our company, for all users, allowing large file transfers without resorting to free, untrusted services liek wetransfer
