GCPay simplifies the application for payment processes between general contractors and subcontractors by automating the payment application process. Create and exchange lien waivers, organize and collect compliance documents and improve subcontractor communication. Integrate directly with a construction ERP platform to save time and gets subs paid faster.
Egynte is best suited for companies that SharePoint is not the best fit for. This includes managers unfamiliar with SharePoint specifically, and those really looking for a replacement for a file server in the more traditional Windows sense. SharePoint has more or less done away with any management that resembles Active Directory or File Explorer. Egnyte's web portal is incredibly straightforward. I would say Egnyte is less suited for companies that have licensing access to SharePoint already and do not have a ton of files or granular sharing and security needs
Their customer service is top notch and as a whole I don't like customer service departments, but they listen to you and help you with your problem, this includes telephone service and email. Their email and telephone number is listed on every page of their website, unlike other companies that try and hide this information. They will train your company to use the system and your users, and the system can be used on any internet capable device such as computer, tablet, or phone. Subcontractors can fill out the invoice by percentage complete and/or actual dollar amounts, and they can easily upload photos or other documentation needed to complete the invoice. If you need to have document(s) notarized you can use your own service or GCPay has a service that will notarize the document(s) for you for a fee. Finally, you control the level of reviewers you want for your company and situation. We have some items that have 2 reviewers and others that only have 1 reviewer. Overall, we are very happy with this system and number of hours we save every week verses having to manually enter all of our subcontractor invoices

Sharing files externally with passwords, link expiration and granular control of permissions
File syncing across end-user devices using a client installed onto the computer for seamless integration for end-users as if they had mapped a drive directly to their machine

The main drawback of the system that it is lacking in managing the uploading of large or huge files, even though the large files can be easily downloadable but the upload takes a lot of time.
While uploading the system sometimes starts lagging and the file after sometimes needs to upload again.
Egnyte is lacking in syncing multiple platforms at the same time. It gives access to one platform at a time which somehow hinders the work while migrating a large amount of data.

When waivers have been completed by the subcontractor, but have not been reviewed by the GC yet, I wish the OW tag would stay up until the waiver was either reviewed and approved or rejected. (OW stands for outstanding waiver)
That the GC had the option to update the amount paid to the supplier. Right now if the unconditional lien waiver is received and is a different amount the only way to update this is sending GCPay an email. We don't do this and would love this as an option, so the tier vendor spreadsheet was accurate.

We found that usage of Egnyte in our supported clients, with sufficient bandwidth, provided all the features and stability we required. The billing setup was fair and the support provided was ample for end users and well as our in house admins. There was a concern about high usage clients but this was taken into account during the vetting process.

Really easy to use the interface. The web browser is very intuitive and I have not had any notable issues with this. It's easy to work on documents as a team, and the only issues we have to tend to come with Apple apps and downloading large files to WebEdit. It's very similar to the filing systems that come on Apple and Windows devices so not a steep learning curve.

Egnyte works very well across all platforms and as an add-on to other programs. Load time is close to nothing. Reports can be made in no time as well. All in all no performance issues. We can see that it depends on the local network connection. If you're running with fiber there won't be any issues.

I never had to reach out to customer support for Egnyte. I don't know any coworkers who have had to reach out to Egnyte for support either. As far as I am concerned, the support team is doing a good job since I have not had to reach out to them.

At the time when this was implemented (over 5 years ago and still in production), there were issues with syncing and reliability that Egnyte did not have, and have continued to impress with. Other providers have improved a lot and Egnyte is fairly costly, but switching costs would be high to move away from it to similar solutions.
