What do you like best about the product?
GoAnywhere MFT allows me to securely and effectively automate file transfers. More-over proper alerts are delivered for each file transfer and automation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Im working from India, however the GoAnywhere support team is from United States. Due to the geographical time difference there is a dely in response for the support tickets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
On a regular bases my SAP application generates multiple files. Using GoAnywhere im able to pick the files and drop it to the desired destination. Earlier i was doing it manually. By GoAnywhere MFT this process is automated.

Leading contender in the MFT market

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to build workflows which can provide great functionality
What do you dislike about the product?
As someone who trains other people on the software, my pet hate is the naming of end users as 'webusers', this confuses so many people who associate 'web' with https only.
Also, I prefer the menus spread horizontally rather than the newer vertical arrangement - this takes up too much space.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I advise customers to use this software when it matches their use case. Generally, this means security, visibility and automation

Has good compliance features, automation capabilities, workflows, and security measures

What is our primary use case?

I am a pre-sales consultant for my organization, distributing Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT software and services across India.

We have completed 25 implementations, with 20 on-premises and five cloud-based.

How has it helped my organization?

Some of our clients make use of GoAnywhere MFT's connectors.

Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT is our primary product, distributed to most of our clients. Our dedicated GoAnywhere team has been deploying and providing Level One and Level Two support for the product for many years. Since 2017, we have distributed GoAnywhere to numerous clients in India who consistently renew their subscriptions. While they may evaluate other products, they ultimately return to GoAnywhere due to its compliance features, automation capabilities, workflows, and security measures.

One of our clients has implemented GoAnywhere MFT's Secure Forms for initial registration. This solution enhances user and server security while allowing end-users to self-register.

One of our clients uses the GoFast feature to transfer large files.

GoAnywhere MFT facilitates efficient connectivity with third parties, provided the firewall policies are open.

What is most valuable?

Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT offers robust security as its most valuable feature. It provides multiple cipher options for HTTPS and SFTP protocols, utilizing AES-based algorithms for secure communication and data transfer. As a testament to its security capabilities, GoAnywhere was recognized as a leading product by Gartner in 2023. GoAnywhere is a compliance-driven solution that adheres to various standards, including HIPAA, GDPR, and PCI DSS, ensuring our company meets all necessary regulations. Furthermore, it offers robust automation capabilities, enabling us to customize and automate file transfers and replacements, streamlining workflows through scheduling and monitoring features. Our organization and our valued customers extensively utilize these key functionalities.

What needs improvement?

The technical support response time has room for improvement.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT for six months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would rate the stability of Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT eight out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT is highly scalable. We have clients with over 600,000 users.

How are customer service and support?

While the technical support team is knowledgeable, their response time for critical issues needs improvement. A response within one business day is insufficient for urgent matters.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We have worked with other Managed File Transfer solutions like IP Switch, but GoAnywhere offers a single dashboard for all features. While IP Switch requires two different solutions to manage MFT, GoAnywhere provides a single dashboard to manage automated and manual file transfers.

How was the initial setup?

The deployment is straightforward and takes roughly two days to complete.

What about the implementation team?

We implement GoAnywhere MFT for our customers.

What was our ROI?

Return on investment is evident in the reduction of resource utilization. This workflow automation solution has enabled three customers to reduce their workforce by automating tasks previously performed by employees. For example, GoAnywhere can perform the work of three people, leading to a decrease in manpower needs for automation and file transfer. Additionally, GoAnywhere enhances security and helps customers achieve compliance by automating the file transfer process, eliminating the need for manual file transfers and ensuring secure delivery to the destination.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT pricing is competitive.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT ten out of ten.

We have six people working with GoAnywhere MFT. Our customers range from small to enterprises.

GoAnywhere MFT requires ongoing maintenance to ensure optimal performance and security. Regular updates, including patches and upgrades, are released approximately every three months to address vulnerabilities and introduce new features. Keeping the system up-to-date is essential for its continued functionality and protection against potential threats.

As a technical professional, I recommend Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT due to its comprehensive feature set and unified dashboard, which streamline functionalities that often require multiple tools in other, more costly MFT solutions.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to use , maintain and great price. We have over 90 + transport programs. Together with our Main HCM it is a great technological arsenal when it comes to our file transfers.

GoAnywhere MFT’s blend of security, automation, compliance, and ease of use is what makes it stand out as a go-to solution for managed file transfer. Whether it's for internal file sharing, partner exchanges, or integrating with cloud platforms, GoAnywhere covers a lot of bases.
What do you dislike about the product?
While I don't have much concerns, the support team used to have Chat Option but it is no longer available. Some times it takes more time. Lately support team response is not up to the mark.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy to use, Not much complexity.
