What differentiates Egnyte from other similar products?

This solution addresses the issue of getting sensitive financial information from consumers, they may immediately upload files to a folder I created in Egnyte. It saves me a lot of time because I don't have to download and save files from emails if they're uploaded to Egnyte. Additionally, we provide a collaborative environment for teams, allowing our users to share files with external connections. Our users have been more productive as a result of the tools we give.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Egnyte makes remote work more efficient. I also appreciate having the option of sharing individual file folders with customers or clients. The platform was quite simple to set up. I've loved collaborating with the Egnyte team to migrate approximately 55TB of data from all of our local servers to Egnyte. To assist with sites with sluggish internet connections, we had to set up a handful of Egnyte Sync servers. They also collaborated with us on a program for a large audience training. Go above and above to follow up on concerns.

What do you dislike most about this product?

We've been using Egnyte for almost two years and there isn't anything we don't enjoy about it. Every now and then, I have difficulties sharing a file so that a customer may add papers to it. It's most likely something I'm doing incorrectly, but I'm not sure. When this happens, I haven't discovered a method to send the client a fresh link, albeit it usually works perfectly.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I wholeheartedly endorse Egnyte as a secure cloud platform for file organization and sharing within a company, as well as file sharing and/or uploading from outside the firm. It may be configured as needed for files that are not shared within the firm, and external access for individual users' files/folders is totally up to them.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity

Cloud storage solution for files and collaboration

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Egnyte from other similar products?

All of our files were previously kept on our desktop PCs until we discovered Egnyte, now we can collaborate from anywhere, and since we all work from laptops, we can keep all our data in one place without having to transmit paper copies of things like we used to. We use it every day at work for all of our client projects as it's perfect for storing massive files in the cloud and viewing them from anywhere, we use this technology to send large files in real time, set up project delivery trackers to receive real-time updates from field offices and monitor and provide live feedback to them.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

This tool is great for businesses that need to regularly check files, papers, and photographs. It synchronizes with your PC and provides cloud storage. It also works well since it is simple to share with those who do not use Egnyte. We may access any file from anyplace thanks to its mobile application. File migration to Egnyte is a straightforward procedure that has transformed the way we interact. Even when the epidemic slammed us all, this program enabled my business to make deliveries on schedule. This is a low-cost program for managing, storing, sharing, and backing up your data.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Uploading huge and heavy files to Egnyte takes a long time, even if they are simple to update and download once published. When uploading files, the application periodically crashes, requiring me to re-upload the file. When many users work on the same file in edit mode inside a project, we frequently discover that various versions of edited files are created until we depart the file and return later, i also dislike Word's online interface because documents created in desktop Word occasionally scroll and have incorrect formatting when viewed in Word's online edition, in comparison to other sites we've tried.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Highly recommended platform for project management teams managing remote projects. The application offers a straightforward solution for protecting, storing, and sharing an organization's information. It was simple to set up, with clear instructions that could be sent to the entire team and a simple launch method. It has completely transformed the way we cooperate and enabled us to work remotely.

  • Continually Improving Product

Great platform for collaboration and cloud storage

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Egnyte from other similar products?

This solution addresses the issue of retrieving sensitive financial information from consumers. You can upload files directly to the folders created by Egnyte. It saves me a lot of time and when files are posted to Egnyte I don't have to download them and save them from email. There are many reports in Excel and PDF formats stored in Egnyte Drive. These folders are accessible from all offices, making it easy to distribute documents without having to send large files. Egnyte has also become an important internal tool for quickly exchanging files.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I enjoy how Egnyte added a new functionality that lets you include the document title in the URL. It greatly simplifies the process of locating files once a link has expired. It is very simple to upload open files to the Egnyte website by dragging and dropping them. I particularly like the ability of streaming many links at once in a logical order. I also like that I can share certain file folders with clients. I like the fact that I can access it via the web, the Android app, and the excellent integration with Windows 10. Another useful feature is that when we scan from our Xerox copier, the image is saved to the Egnyte storage.

What do you dislike most about this product?

My biggest issue is saving the Access database to the Engyte folder. Access reports that the database is damaged around once a week. My database is on OneDrive, while everything else is on Egnyte. You may have difficulty releasing the file so that the customer may upload the document. I'd want to be able to specify how long the connections remain active. I'm not sure if that's a feature, but it's been disabled in my workplace. If it doesn't exist, it would be fantastic to see if a link is valid for seven, thirty, or more days. We occasionally provide a pre-read to a customer more than a week ahead of time and must respond to specific requests

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Egnyte is an excellent file sharing program, especially if you operate with numerous clients and technologies, such as Windows and Mac. Organizing by folders makes working with yourself and coworkers much easier. External access to individual users files/folders is totally up to them and Egnyte may be set as needed for files that are not shared within the firm. If you can't find a solution to a specific problem, contact Egnyte. They are quite beneficial and there are other comparable articles on the internet where individuals contribute solutions to specific problems.
