GoAnywhere MFT Great tool and easy to make automations
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use and upgrade application as a whole. Able to cluster so production will have a failsafe in case a server that hosts the application goes down. It is easy to set up workflows, but you need to be organized and have a good idea of the steps necessary to get from point A to point B. Customer Support is great once you open a ticket you can wait for an email response or if urgent able to call the support line and refer to the ticket.
Our company uses it daily and when a failure happens we have alerts so we can respond to them as needed.

workflows can be complex since you design them from scratch. They do offer templates but wish they offered more training as most was learn on the fly or trail by error.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
automation of pushing and pulling files via SFTP/FTP or network shares.

What do you dislike about the product?
The LDAP Login Method should allow you to narrow the Base DN so the entire directory structure does not need to be queried.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before we implemented Go Anywhere all of our file transfers were done writing batch jobs which was difficult to read and document. This made it incredibly difficult to support, troubleshoot and share/transfer knowledge. Go Anywhere's Administrative console is very well organized and easy to use. It almost documents itself due to its layout and functionality.
Secure and easy way to automate, administer and manage file transfers across the organization
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of Use,Ease of Implementation, Customer Support, Number of Features
What do you dislike about the product?
Web Client had limitations on the number of files that can be downloaded in one go, Getting external user set up using Azure external Identity packages can sometimes be troublesome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automating file transfers between several source and targets using multiple protocols within the IT and OT landscape, the Web client allows an easy way to exchange business data between internal and external users.
GoAnywhere MFT Review
What do you like best about the product?
GoAnywhere is great for modernizing connections between business partners. The PGP Encryption is very easy to use. The testing of a Resource is extremely helpful, along with testing while inside of a Workflow Project. You don't have to guess about your partners folder names. The actual "writing" of workflow projects is very easy (mostly drag & drop) and if you use your variables well, promotion from test to production is a snap. GA MFT fits well between JDE, the AS400, and Windows servers. The customizable dashboard gives a great picture into what is working and what needs help.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have many dislikes about GA MFT. At first there was a learning curve and it didn't seem to be as friendly as my old dos scripting that I had used for 8 years prior, but once I learned all the little tricks and nuances, I saw how powerful it could be.
The main thing for newcomers is learning the little tricks and nuances and I am not so sure that the customer support or the internet usually gets me to where I need to get when learning something new.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One stop tool for start to finish with encryption and SFTP. Much easier than my old tools.

Good tool, consolidates all out sfts servers in one server
What do you like best about the product?
The solution is easy to use and work as expected. Good Documentation and services have lastest market features. The implementation can be easy, however we did not choose the easy way at the beginning, we decide to go for 100% deployment automation, we had some challenges at the beginning however we did managed to implement and have a repetable automation that we used 4 times already. Fortra support and docmentations were the key for the success on the implementation. Tool was implemented on aws, uses s3 and IAM roles, NLB and EFS it works well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Automation and troybleshooting can be challenging some times. Upgrade of system requires downtime.

GoAnywhere Managed File Transfer Solution
What do you like best about the product?
GA MFT is very helpful specially in automation of moving of our Client's files. Besides being an automation tool, GA MFT is very easy to administer and provides security using the most latest file transfer protocols. High maintenance programming is not an issue anymore because of GA MFT's Project Workflow with drag and drop Tasks. In addition to it, Technical Courses of the solution is free to access.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my honest opinion, GA MFT 10/10 but I understand that nothing is made perfect. I think GA MFT will be much greater if there will be a specific template of Project Workflow that will tackle each of the Tasks available in its Component Library. On the other hand, if price can still be considered for it to be more affordable though the features of GA MFT really worth its price.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GA MFT is currently solving our client's file transfer automation needs including the encryption and securing the moving of files with industry's file transfer protocols. It benefit each of our client's with the easy scheduling of the automated file transfer at the same time having the security of hacking and data snooping.
Good tool for managed file transfer.
What do you like best about the product?
Easy deploying, Friendly user interface, Easy management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features are not support, for example: uploading and downloading and removing mutiple files on AWS S3, intergrete SAP jobs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scheduling jobs, Automation repeating jobs if failed. Supporting large numbers of file transmissions. Log tracing.
