What do you dislike about the product?
The LDAP Login Method should allow you to narrow the Base DN so the entire directory structure does not need to be queried.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before we implemented Go Anywhere all of our file transfers were done writing batch jobs which was difficult to read and document. This made it incredibly difficult to support, troubleshoot and share/transfer knowledge. Go Anywhere's Administrative console is very well organized and easy to use. It almost documents itself due to its layout and functionality.
Secure and easy way to automate, administer and manage file transfers across the organization

GoAnywhere MFT Review
What do you like best about the product?
GoAnywhere is great for modernizing connections between business partners. The PGP Encryption is very easy to use. The testing of a Resource is extremely helpful, along with testing while inside of a Workflow Project. You don't have to guess about your partners folder names. The actual "writing" of workflow projects is very easy (mostly drag & drop) and if you use your variables well, promotion from test to production is a snap. GA MFT fits well between JDE, the AS400, and Windows servers. The customizable dashboard gives a great picture into what is working and what needs help.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have many dislikes about GA MFT. At first there was a learning curve and it didn't seem to be as friendly as my old dos scripting that I had used for 8 years prior, but once I learned all the little tricks and nuances, I saw how powerful it could be.
The main thing for newcomers is learning the little tricks and nuances and I am not so sure that the customer support or the internet usually gets me to where I need to get when learning something new.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One stop tool for start to finish with encryption and SFTP. Much easier than my old tools.

Secure File Transfer, Data source Integrations and File Automation
Good tool, consolidates all out sfts servers in one server
What do you like best about the product?
The solution is easy to use and work as expected. Good Documentation and services have lastest market features. The implementation can be easy, however we did not choose the easy way at the beginning, we decide to go for 100% deployment automation, we had some challenges at the beginning however we did managed to implement and have a repetable automation that we used 4 times already. Fortra support and docmentations were the key for the success on the implementation. Tool was implemented on aws, uses s3 and IAM roles, NLB and EFS it works well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Automation and troybleshooting can be challenging some times. Upgrade of system requires downtime.

Improved productivity through automation from the source to the destination
What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
GoAnywhere has improved productivity through automation from the source to the destination. It has improved build time because the files are transferred to them immediately.
We use the agents for other branches of our client. It's crucial that the agents enable us to extend MFT automation to remote systems because the agent is like a mini-GoAnywhere. The solution has saved time connecting securely with third parties that we need to collaborate with, especially our clients. We're dealing with SaaS, so it helped us secure our files and the cloud files being tested.
What is most valuable?
The best feature of GoAnywhere is that transfers are straightforward if there are no other requirements from the source and destination. It doesn't require much maintenance.
What needs improvement?
The reporting could be more customizable.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have used Fortra's GoAnywhere for two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I rate GoAnywhere 10 out of 10 for stability.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
GoAnywhere can scale up to the enterprise level.
How are customer service and support?
I rate Fortra support nine out of 10. I'm very satisfied with the customer support. They can accommodate us when we need their help.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We had another product before we switched to Fortra. Their customer support couldn't answer our technician's questions fast enough, whereas Fortra gave us the answer we needed in a timely manner.
What other advice do I have?
I rate Fortra GoAnywhere 10 out of 10. I would recommend GoAnywhere, depending on a company's needs. It's appropriate for enterprises who want to securely transfer files from service to service.

GoAnywhere Managed File Transfer Solution
What do you like best about the product?
GA MFT is very helpful specially in automation of moving of our Client's files. Besides being an automation tool, GA MFT is very easy to administer and provides security using the most latest file transfer protocols. High maintenance programming is not an issue anymore because of GA MFT's Project Workflow with drag and drop Tasks. In addition to it, Technical Courses of the solution is free to access.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my honest opinion, GA MFT 10/10 but I understand that nothing is made perfect. I think GA MFT will be much greater if there will be a specific template of Project Workflow that will tackle each of the Tasks available in its Component Library. On the other hand, if price can still be considered for it to be more affordable though the features of GA MFT really worth its price.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GA MFT is currently solving our client's file transfer automation needs including the encryption and securing the moving of files with industry's file transfer protocols. It benefit each of our client's with the easy scheduling of the automated file transfer at the same time having the security of hacking and data snooping.
Provides an almost complete range of connectors
What is our primary use case?
I deploy Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT for our clients and provide presentations to prospects.
Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT allows our clients to securely share confidential files and create a web portal for external partners. This portal enables partners to search, upload, and download files, integrating with services like Google Drive. Additionally, GoAnywhere offers a secure mail feature for sending large attachments.
How has it helped my organization?
Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT provides an almost complete range of connectors.
GoAnywhere's agents allow us to extend MFT automation to remote systems, which is helpful for our clients with branches in different countries. By using the agent along with the automation service, we can interact with remote servers, thereby increasing productivity and transfer times between those servers and the head office.
GoAnywhere MFT has improved our client's KPIs. Before implementing GoAnywhere MFT, our clients didn't receive notifications when there were errors in the file process and now they are instantly informed.
To ensure a safe data collection process during the pandemic, our clients transitioned from Google Forms to GoAnywhere Secure Forms. This allowed them to securely fill out digital forms upon entering the building, with the option to attach them directly to their database.
Before GoAnywhere Secure Forms, our clients had to rely on third-party solutions but now they only have to use the MFT for their use cases.
The Go Fast feature improves the data transfer speeds for our clients.
GoAnywhere MFT saves our clients time connecting securely with third-party collaborations. Removing the manual intervention has saved around 90 percent of their time.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features are the automatic processing of files and scheduled execution of the files.
What needs improvement?
The technical support has room for improvement. It takes between three to five days to get a resolution from them.
I would like better integration between GoAnywhere MFT and other MFT solutions.
We request the ability to customize the user interface of Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT, specifically by incorporating our company logo. This feature would provide greater flexibility and brand recognition within the software.
