Room For Improvement

GoAnywhere MFT needs improvements in UI design, documentation, training, support, pricing, DNS, security, connectivity, speed, and integration.
SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite needs interface simplification, enhanced monitoring, better documentation, and improved cloud integration and cost models.
That's the only thing that could help if the application could log what caused the error for us to prevent it.
We had to reach out to GoAnywhere support, and they were quick to provide support within a day, so we were able to complete that use case.
when the application runs on a server and encounters problems, it doesn't provide detailed information on the server issues, which could help users troubleshoot better.
Acquiring training documents on a public domain for SEEBURGER is challenging.
The cloud interface is currently too cluttered, especially when creating new transactions from scratch or performing search queries.

SEEBURGER's flexible licensing and comprehensive features offer competitive pricing, justifying its cost despite complexity for many organizations.
Azure is significantly more expensive.
There are approximately 30% to 40% savings.
For the Indian market, the pricing is particularly high.

SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite offers platform independence, strong EDI automation, seamless SAP integration, scalability, and comprehensive global B2B integration.
It provides multiple cipher options for HTTPS and SFTP protocols, utilizing AES-based algorithms for secure communication and data transfer.
I can produce reports for security and have full control over secure protocols allowed on the system, making it easy to comply with security standards such as Sarbanes-Oxley.
Before, we had to write scripts and manually update them to move data around, encrypt files, or rename files. Now we just use the GUI to set the modules for transfers, encryption, renaming, and copying, allowing us to set it and schedule it to run without any user interaction.
It comes pre-loaded with solutions, meaning it is ready to use without requiring significant development.
There is no disturbance in the connections, and it is very clear to check the connection flow with applicable queues.
