Fortra's Globalscape Enhanced File Transfer (EFT) vs. Signiant

Globalscape EFT is well suited for file transmissions. It is very intuitive and easy to create file transmission rules. We transmit many files back and forth between vendors and software applications. File transmissions are fast and reliable. Globalscape allows us to specify certain file naming conventions, contain only certain data, format the data to be a specific way, etc.

Quick workflow and data swapping, we use it extensively to get large data volumes out to users work from home and then back in.

• PGP & SSH Key Ring Retainer
• Reporting
• Event Rule Create - No Code development
• Easy account set up for SFTP site directory creation

• Quick easy transfer
• Easy to set up
• Easy management

• Would like to see the ability for a rule in EFT to link the the Advanced Workflow that it is called (rather than having to manually locate the Advanced Workflow)
• Would like the ability to disable just a part of an Event Rule
• Would like to see more template creation functionality

• Improvements are being made all the time.

Very easy to admin and allow non experienced users control their portals, lots of stats and helpful info on usage and users accessing the portals

Globalscape and Automate are similar. However, with Automate, you do not have PGP or SSH keyring functionality within the application. You would need to purchase and install them separately. So as far as organization I like Globalscape for key retainment. Globalscape's transmission reporting is a lot better as well. Although it could be enhanced a little more, I use it to report any transmission issues with the Vendors. But the Event Rule functionality that Globalscape has in building simple action logic is where you save a lot of time instead of coding transmissions. Automate does not have active-active replication within their application. Meaning they do not have the ability to have two servers active for off loading transmission in case of bottlenecks. However, if one server goes down, the secondary server will be active. We have both products and don't mind working in either one of them, but Globalscape seems to be the more comprehensive and scalable application

Signiant Media shuttle in particular allows us to easily manage changing workflows, we also heavily use it's portal service to allow many companies to download and upload large data files extensively who have no way of delivering or downloading themselves

• Globalscape EFT is very reliable
• Allows us to easily transmit files with customers
• Allows us to easily meet file requirements of vendors/other software applications

• With our current workflows we couldn't do this with Media shuttle
• It has been hugely impactful in allowing a lot of workflow changes to happen during covid and allowing us to easily accomplish them
