GoAnywhere MFT Delivers Solutions
What do you like best about the product?
That any task I challenge GA MFT with, there has been a solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of one thing that I don't like about the product or the support. Both have been great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use GA MFT for tasks like sending/receiving files to FTP sites, automating report distribution within the company, intercepting EDI files, and making corrections before sending them on their path. The list goes on and on. Most tasks are set up with a scheduler or are triggered using a monitor, so they are fully automated. Having GA MFT allows us to solve critical business process problems quickly and reliably.

Most intuitive product for a technical as well as non-technical team.

Ease of connecting various systems, Excel and CSV operations, REST API connectors

Lack of single sign on (ability to open multiple tabs) and lack of page updates without refreshes (AJAX)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reporting that requires pulling data from multiple DBs, Excel report formatting, secure forms, external API for secure forms. SQL operations and script executions. Location monitors are also beneficial.
Good MFT Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Cloud Connectors and the various resources available
What do you dislike about the product?
Licensing model can be improved by packaging it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy of Integration with Cloud-Based Connector
Pleasantly good
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, especially for just FTP(non EDI) applications. The product is very stable and does not go down. Upgrades which we had 3-4 are just a breeze. Key management is very easy to use and can be done with beginner level.
What do you dislike about the product?
IDE is still a browser and no hooks to code repository. Cron scheduler expressions would be nice in the future and more robust transformation or language like scala would be awesome. Dynamic(in memory) rowset creation would really help with transformation as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We took out all file, FTP,SFTP transfers project from Mulesoft and never looked back. GoAnawhere is made for this reason and best in class. We also heavily utilizing the scheduler as we had historically had issue with Mulesoft cluster and pollers/scheduler on a broken cluster is a recipe for disaster. Mulesoft is now API based mirco services invoked by MFT schedulers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Best part is pertetual license model. Buy once and just yearly support which is a small price to pay for ROI.
GoAnywhere MFT is the lifeblood of our automation for our SMB
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use for automation of routines. The full feature set provided by the system is world-class, and supporting the system from an SRE perspective is a breeze. Support has always been fantastic.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features require additional licensing or infrastructure to be provisioned. Large projects can be difficult to reverse engineer without good documentation from your developers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All things data are run through MFT. Automating push/pulls of files over SFTP, running automated database queries, generating flat file exports for ingest into downstream systems, and hitting application REST URIs to kick off processes in an automated fashion.
Outstanding software at a fantastic price.
What do you like best about the product?
It just works. Easy to use and reliable.
What do you dislike about the product?
No folder structure in Monitors as there is in Projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With GAMFT we stopped using in-house macros and unsupported software.
GoAnywhere - Great Product
What do you like best about the product?
We were able to seamlessly convert from our previous SFTP product, as GoAnywhere allowed us to import all of our User ID's. It took a little while to understand how to build the automated scripts to process incoming files, but we received a fair amount of training and hands-on consulting to get us going. Now that we have all of our scripts written, our process has dramatically improved!
What do you dislike about the product?
The MFT code can be a little difficult to get used to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The manual process we used to perform to decrypt files and move them to their proper location was painful. This has now happens instantly! It saves both time as well as lessens mistakes.
One of the Best MFT solution available right now.
What do you like best about the product?
Automating using Goanywhere trigger, We send alerts and notifications email in real-time using sftp file triggers. We run our decryption jobs based on the "upload successful" trigger so that our decryption can only trigger once the file is fully received.
What do you dislike about the product?
I guess there is nothing that I dislike. I wish for few minor enhancements around PGP Key ID information in the decryption logs so that we can see the PGP key ID, which was originally used to encrypt the files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We deal with a lot of to and fro file-based traffic, which needs to be encrypted at rest and in transit. Goanywhere helps us to manage all that seamlessly. KMS vault for PGP keys is an additional benefit.

Centralized control of MFT processes for application use.
Security Engineer
What do you like best about the product?
UI and capabilities are endless. Usually more than one way to accomplish something.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing that I dislike about GoAnywhere. They are always adding features
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
