Globalscape EFT

Easy to build, reliable and excellent customer support

Commentaires : - Overall we are satisfied with the product. We had planned to choose the product only for 1 year as a temporary solution but base on its ease of use and functionalities it has been the permanent solution for file transfers.

Avantages :

-- Its easy to customize. -- no programming skills required to implement. -- Anyone can implement and design file transfer solutions

Inconvénients :

-- It has challenge with operating systems other than windows as the agents are designed for windows only.

My favorite MFT Platform on the market

Commentaires : I have had a very positive experience with EFT. I have interacted with many MFT applications, and EFT tops them all.

Avantages :

The software offers the most robust feature set. You have a lot flexibility in how to approach each setup/environment. There are always multiple ways to approach administration & automation.

Inconvénients :

File Transfer is a tough space to be in, because you touch virtually everything in the network, while depending on multiple layers of the environment, without having any sort of control of them. That being said, EFT has had stability issues in the past. Upgrades are always an endeavor, because things that were previously fixed, could have been re-broken.

Ok tool

Commentaires : Transferring large files to customers

Avantages :

simple tool. It was not easy to integrated with SSO. but we learnt it form the support.

Inconvénients :

Basic functionality is not there for new authentication methods. Even for simple basic common sense features they are asking us to pay for rapid development.

Full Featured file transfer product

Avantages :

The EFT software is a full featured and production ready product capable of supporting hundreds of ftp users and workflows. The thing that we like the most about it though is the responsiveness of Globalscape support. There are tons of SFTP products out there but only Globalscape provides skilled technicians to troubleshoot the sometimes confusing issues we have encounter when we need to implement connectivity between EFT and hundreds of different customers and products. That is what is most valuable to me as an administrator.

Inconvénients :

There are a few areas specific to configuration of certificates where there is not enough granularity in the way things are configured. What I mean by this, is that some areas of the EFT configuration don't let you change the certificate for a specific user, its all or nothing. This can increase risk when we are making updates to these kinds of things, though we have worked around this by deploying a test environment where we can validate changes in advance.

Protecting Our Data with Globalscape EFT Server

Commentaires : I find a new learning experience daily because the software is so robust and can do many things. It allows me to be able to send a simple file one way in seconds to creating scripts such as Folder Monitors and Timer Events.

Avantages :

Its easy to use - allows many different options when creating rules/scripts. very user friendly and descriptive. The security and piece of mind it gives us sending and receiving data securely.

Inconvénients :

I can't say there is anything I'm not happy with. Its been a great asset to our Institution and partners.
