It satisfies our requirements but they don't do new improvements as per the market
Pros and Cons
  • "It satisfies our requirements but they don't do new improvements as per the market."
  • "With the new other vendors coming up, they come up with certain features, in addition to the file transfer. But MOVEit does not develop their product. That's why we are looking out for other solutions."

What is our primary use case?

Our primary use case is for secure transfer. Within our organization, we have two different networks and there is no communication between these different networks. We use it if we need a file from one network to another network.

We also use it for the secure transfer of these files among the employees, which are not supposed to be shared over email.

What is most valuable?

It satisfies our requirements but they don't do new improvements as per the market.

What needs improvement?

With the new other vendors coming up, they come up with certain features, in addition to the file transfer. But MOVEit does not develop their product. That's why we are looking out for other solutions.

There should be more control. If you transfer some files, you can even include the person to whom you are sending this file. He can copy it, print it, and make changes into the file or not, so those permissions should be granted over that particular file, which are not as of now.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been using MOVEit for four years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We don't have issues with stability or scalability.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Pricing is okay.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate it a six out of ten.

In the next release, I would like to see more control over the documents when you send them out. I would also like to see increased file size and file extensions. They are very restricted file types that we can transfer using this solution.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Must have for mission critical large scale encrypted data transfers.

Valuable Features:

It is a secure managed file transfer using servers that allow exchange of large and sensitive data files. Good for sharing data in various kinds of files like spreadsheets, reports and software. The best part is the secure transfer using the managed servers as one does not have to worry about managing firewall ports to keep secure access. Data also gets encrypted on managed servers (at rest) and also during the transfer process (in flight).

Room for Improvement:

Compressed data not managed very well. The reason for this is that the encryption logic does not work very well with the data that has been compressed using standard compression tools like zip, rar and gzip.

Other Advice:

Makes sense for companies with large scale data sharing and transfer needs. With minimal setup one can establish secure file sharing and transfer access.
