Excellent experience overall. Best UX and fastest compared to other file-sharing system I've used.

The capacity of file size and speed of upload and download.
The security when sharing to specific users within my organization as well as external parties.

What do you dislike about the product?
Less intuitive UX for managing folders and sub-folders. When comparing to other services such as Google Drive, which can do drag-and-drop, it is a bit of a hassle. But is generally good compared to the custom-built file-sharing solutions I've used with other companies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
File sharing both internally as well as externally with my clients, and the security issues that entail.

Perspective review of what egnyte does for me.
What do you like best about the product?
interfacing between mobile and desktop and file on the fly. Being able to recover files that were deleted months ago. simple means of file sharing. All three of these main traits have made increased efficiency and reduced the amount of headaches with lost files or inability to share large files through email limitation mediums with external clients or internal team members.
What do you dislike about the product?
Password renewal every 30 days credentials and being pushed to use a 3rd party verification application.. In windows exploring, you get locked out of modifying/saving the file if you have the explorer preview window open. worst is when other teams member exit a file so that you main work on it, but they unknowingly have windows explorer open with a preview window and everyone is locked out.
another annoying issues is you cant see whom the author is or who modified a file through a local directory like windows explorer. id have to login to the egnyte website and search for the file in the browser to see who made any modifications.
last known issues is with updates. Updates would require administrative permission. back in the days of early egnyte with the frequent updates. we would need to have our IT personnel remote login when they were available to make the updates for fixes. sometimes it could wait, but for the big updates were we were experiencing bugs. we couldnt update until IT was able to remote login and provide access.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The is an ease of use for file sharing and archiving photos from mobile while on the job. centralizing filing and ease of file recovery.
one of the great things is the modification history. we are able to find lost files due to team members accidentally move folders or files because the accidentally double click or dragged files or folders into incorrect destinations.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
its great to be able to access and share files while using mobile or desktop. there is a quick and seam list transition between the two. Another great benefit is being able to navigate egnyte without having to use accessing the website. Doing straight from file explore saves a lot of leg work.
For cloud storage and sharing files, it is an excellent solution.
What do you like best about the product?
Drag and drop feature. Large storage. Instant copy link option. "timed" links to files.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nice to have an "always on" feature so that I don't have to log in each time I access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing files with multiple people across multiple countries on multiple platforms, with ability to search and go back to old files and re-send when necessary.
works just like it should...
What do you like best about the product?
Everything just works like you would expect it to... Egnyte is very intuitive for and very easy to onboard new users, without reference or training. We have several 3rd parties that work with us use our infrastructure and we have had no issues with adoption. In many cases our infrastructure was preferred over other alternatives because of its ease and speed uploading the volumes of large size construction documents and models.
What do you dislike about the product?
Updates to the local sync tools for mac needs polishing.... while the local sync app has been recently been upgraded which solves the occasional sync conflicts which occurred when more than one user was working on the same file. The documentation and differentiation on between the old and new tool is confusing. The new app has a very strange implementation for Mac iOS. This is not much of a problem when deploying to windows by IT admins, but for users on their personal computers this has proved to be an issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Local store sync'd with the cloud allows local users to access and control their files without the worries of connectivity risks all while having the comfort knowing everything is secure and availble to access from everywhere on the cloud. The ease to upload massive folder structures with simple drag and dropping is extremely useful and users love it. Sending and receiving links is also useful to share continuous y updated folders. On varşous sites we deploy local store while syncing the files to the cloud and also to HQ servers so there is realtime access to all the data on sites without the email traffic.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Review the benefits of having a hybrid system which can be deployed on the cloud and pushed locally with minimal hardware. Local storage cost significantly drops with inherent redundancy, and cloud backup. There are still risks with remote locations having connectivity issues, and the fact your teams can work locally while sharing and backing up globally is a big assurance to management.
Great way to have access to your files anywhere
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Egnyte is you can use it exactly like you do any drive you have on your computer. As long as you have an internet connection, you can save , open files, copy, pull up anything you need, just like you are at your office.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside, is if you lose connection, it will sometimes not let you save your work. If you notice, just save it to your desktop, and then upload it once your connection is reestablished.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tackling Covid-19 requires you to work from all different places. I'm on my computer 10 to 15 hours a day. I am able to get to the same files remotely, that I use in the office, and share them with clients via text, email, or link. We can password protect one folder and share it with exactly who we want to see it, without letting them see the other folders in the same location. It's so much faster than any service we have ever used.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Much easier to use than google drive, one drive, box, dropbox, etc.
Easy, collaborative, powerful
What do you like best about the product?
I share files to clients and I love the look they percibe, as the site is from my company.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes file transfer is a little slow
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Egnyte to send large files to clients. The best thing is links never expire, and my clients have the experience of being in my corporate site.

Access to files over any device with an internet or cellular connection. Access speed to documents is fast. Total file storage is excellent. Opening files directly from Excel, Word, etc.

Takes too long to download some files. Only a file database. Wish there was a CRM component. When you open a file, it does not automatically open in Excel, Word, etc. Do not like having to click open on my desktop each time.

No longer have to pay high prices for computer servers and IT companies to service servers and computers.
