What differentiates GoAnywhere MFT from other similar products?

GoAnywhere MFT has excellent automation capabilities, such as automated scheduling and triggers. Data can be retrieved from almost any database and sent to users and partners in a variety of formats. When compared to other products such as MoveIt, the projects may take longer to complete because it appears less intuitive, but this adds to its potential as you learn the many extra functions available.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

It is a powerful FTP server that is also simple to use and configure. Transfers documents between locations quickly and securely. It enables the creation of multiple automation schedules. Excellent for manipulating data and converting it to XML, text, spreadsheets, and other formats.

What do you dislike most about this product?

At times, the software appears to be buggy, slowing down or corrupting jobs. The ability to view the ticket, see the status, and what has been done is required by the ticketing system. Simple tasks sometimes necessitate more logic.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

This product is appropriate for any situation in which a user may need to consider creating projects to support the organization's need to work. It eliminates the need to use additional software to encrypt or decrypt files. It enables the use of command execution. Their customer service is excellent, and they are always willing to help.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Efficient Service
  • Respectful
  • Fair

Cons

  • Slower Product Innovation
  • Less Friendly Negotiation
