Progress ShareFile
When we have a particularly large ad or job printing file that would "clog up" the email process, using ShareFile is very helpful. It's also useful for particular photographers we work with to upload a batch of photos all at once. Where it doesn't work as well for us is when trying to get clients to make use of a login to access folders. We find them reluctant to take on the learning curve. It works best for us when we just send them a clickable download link, and at most just require a tracking name and email address.

I can't think of a way this product wouldn't enhance anyone's business practice, assuming collecting signatures is an important piece. I am constantly sending documents to clients for signature and this is a great way to send a professional looking interface. It's easy to understand, efficient to use and, as far as I can tell "idiot-proof".

Pros
Progress ShareFile
  • Secure File Storage and Sharing.
  • Workflows to get customer/affiliate responses to comments on documents.
  • I used to have the signature feature initially, but it was removed from the original plan, so I could only use it if I chose to select the higher plan price.
  • I love the upload notifications and reports on user activity.
  • The document storage versions are fantastic. I am the only user with Delete privileges, and I love that I can make those selections.
  • Integrations with Microsoft 365 - FANTASTIC - thank you.

Cons
Progress ShareFile
  • The web console is not the most user friendly site to use to get to, and send my files.
  • We have had users that have not liked the change in workflow to get files from Progress ShareFile when they were used to just clicking on files on an email.
  • That management of the tools are not the most user friendly. There have been some improvements but keeping up with certs and setting up new users can be more work than expected.

Usability

ShareFile is so easy to use I was able to download all of my projects files and have them set up to sync before my supervisor could even come over to explain the process to me. It is a neatly organized and intuitive software that allows even the less tech-savvy to become power users.

Easy to use, easy to integrate with Outlook. I only gave it a 9 because I have found that sometimes it does not play nicely with Outlook and can slow it down. But, when that happens (not frequent), I restart Outlook and all is well again

Citrix was generally responsive and helpful in solving technical issues. Like any cloud based SaaS product there is a danger that it may go down. This was a rare occurrence over my three years of using the product. The more common issue we encountered was clients forgetting their login which was easily managed through a forgot password functionality.

Good documentation for the API. With a little help from RS tech staff, any competent programmer should be able to integrate RightSignature with an existing system in a week or three. That help is easy to get as well

ShareFile is easier and does what you need. I have moved a few organizations from SharePoint to ShareFile. Just easier. You can setup different areas for different departments, setup their permissions and it is easy enough for them to do what they want in their zones. The mobile app works great as well. So you can all the features you really use from SP, but just easier to setup and use.
