Cons

More cloud based services need to be added to the default service package.
Companies frequently require a small contact center within the UC environment. It would be nice to see a build it contact center in the box.
It would be nice to see some advanced AI based services (IVR voice recognition service) in the BE7K application list.
Call recording should be also built in.

Drag and dropping of files to attached to packages.
I believe there is room for improvement when it comes to setting up folder and group security.
A better mobile app is absolutely needed. The current app lacks in features.

I've used 220s and 240s too, but it takes a lot of time to set them up, a lot of time to download the iso files, and set up of datastores. 7k saves the engineer a lot of pre-build assessment and evaluation time. Gets a lot done in a lot less time, returns are a happy engineer and a happier customer.

We previously used Attunity MFT (Formerly Repliweb MFT); We were looking to move away from the platform becuase, while flexible, it was too flexible. The flexibility was gained by running scripts with each job to do what you want. So, not only did you have to define the job (Source and Destination), you had to have a fairly strong programming background. Tasks as simple as renaming files with a date stamp, required a script be written. MoveIt has many of these basic macros available for file name manipulations like various date pieces, times, file names, etc, and they're all well documented. Ex: [OrigName] = Original Filename (TestFile.pdf), [OnlyName] = Just the filename, no extension (TestFile), [OnlyExt] = Just the file extentions (.pdf). Pretty much every field within a job can use pre-defined Macros, which is a huge benefit. We also moved away from that platform because it had gone stale, it wasn't their "Core" product. The vendor supported it, but was not actively developing it or fixing bugs or anything. We went 2-3 years without even an update to the binary. MoveIt is one of Progress's "Core" products, so they are adding features / functionality and fixing bugs actively

It gave us the ability to exchange files with customers and vendors in a secure manner.
Given the sensitivity of our files exchange, MOVEit helped in gaining the trust of our customers that their data is safe.
Using its API, we were able to build a custom app that is adding even more features, specific to our needs, like empowering project managers with more permissions on their folders
