Easy to use and great stress-saver
Egnyte is used across the whole company, we use it for all of our filings and try not to store any documents locally. It is used for collaborative work across departments and across offices in different locations. We also make use of the file sharing for external freelancers and sharing documents/folders with clients. Using Egnyte solved issues we were having with using an external hard drive for all of our shared documents, which was often unreliable and difficult to access.
- Easy to use: we had minimal problems implementing this across the company.
- Great for collaborative work: stops issues with version control and has easy sharing.
- Easy sharing outside our organization: avoids issues with large file transfers.
- We often have issues with WebEdit, changes not saving/overwriting
- No functionality to drag and drop files/folders within the UI, can only move things by going through Move > Select location
- When previewing Word files in the browser, tracked changes are not shown so there can be misunderstandings when quickly reviewing documents

- Much less time lost to searching for files, swapping files around and issues with our previous external drive.
- Some time lost to occasional issues with WebEdit feature not performing reliably. This tends to be with Apple apps Keynote and Numbers.
- Better organization across client accounts.

Egnyte does the job and a bit more
Egnyte is being used globally across the whole organization. We also use it with freelancers and clients. We needed a file share system that is reliable and can be set up in the cloud and on premises. We're able to share documents and more across the organization and with clients. We can also restore deleted files, track changes, etc. We have gotten the power as admins to control what ever happens to our material. There are different options with sharing files using Egnyte in the browser. You can use it as an application, network drive, etc., so all end users have an option to work with their preference.
- Sharing options within the organization and outside.
- Structure of permissions.
- User management.
- Options for using Egnyte (drive, browser, etc.).
- Collaborating in docs.
- Collaboration in documents within the Office applications would be nice. Now it's only in browser mode.
- Default link names option when sharing files.
- Desktop sync should be able to tell when there's not enough disk space.
- Support could be more attentive.

- Collaboration with clients have been very beneficial
- Easy access to files everywhere has made work flexible.
- Collaboration in docs has made the organization more agile.
Egnyte has a much easier management console and it's easier to share files and create a directory of files etc. The overview is more simplified. OneDrive, however, has the option to collaborate in documents in the application itself. But Egnyte should have this feature in the pipeline and it should be something we can see in the future.

Awesome, secure share app
Egnyte is being used by every department in our organization. It is used for sharing and collecting database files from our customers, which contain sensitive PHI about patients from many different hospitals.
- Sharing a link for upload.
- Downloading using a password.
- Customizing the link with security options.
- Automatic deletion policy would be nice.
