Cost-effective data management and storage with Egnyte
Egnyte offers a cost-effective cloud-based way to manage data without expensive infrastructure. It creates a Z-drive on people's computers and functions just like a local folder structure but with files saved to the cloud. This allows for a fairly reliable system for remote use from home or when travelling. It also serves as the main database for files when working in the office.
- Very easy to install.
- Very simple to use.
- Large storage capacity.
- Uploading large files (over 1GB) remotely can be difficult and causes crashes.
- Likewise moving large files within the folders can cause interruptions in service.
- Not sure what is happening with the creation of back-ups. I have never seen this functionality although it may be happening in the background.

- Not having to install significant IT infrastructure is a real positive.
- Rapid remote access to data helps business operations significantly.
- Not having to hire in-house IT people to manage infrastructure is a significant cost saving.
- Security is a concern as data could be accessed with just a password.
I have used DropBox a lot in the past which is similar but not as well suited to handling large amounts of data and is more complicated to use.

Egnyte is AMAZING!!!
Egnyte is our main file storage across our organization. We are a virtual company and use Egnyte so we are able to share files across our organization just as if we were in the same office working within a server environment. Egnyte solves many problems for our organization and allows us to work effectively daily.

We also looked at Dropbox and a few others, and we found that Egnyte was (at the time) the ONLY HIPPA and Part 11 compliant software on the market. We loved the security features in Egnyte and felt safe trusting our data to such an innovative and reputable company. We are happy daily that we made the decision we did.

Egnyte Agency Review
Egnyte is being used by our whole organization at my agency. Instead of using something like Dropbox to share links, we use Egnyte links that can be either password-protected or shared with someone who has an agency email address. You can also choose when or if you want the links to expire.
- Ease of use
- Interface
- Quick loading time
- Editable links
- Not getting logged out so often
- Loading speed when not on VPN

- helps with quick turnaround time since there is an easy / fast upload process
- security to client documents
- accessible without VPN
- Dropbox and Google Drive
I think that Egnyte is a good tool especially when you need to share files within the same company or organization. I think that the layout is much better and updated than Dropbox. The downside to Egnyte is that you cannot edit files within the tool like you can do for Google, Sharepoint, etc.

Egnyte Sync for Construction Companies
We use Egnyte to store large construction files that we are able to share and collaborate on within our system. We also take advantage of the feature to selectively share individual files without having to separately upload to a cloud based share site. This eliminates the need for additional storage on our server and gives our personnel easy access to files at any location with Internet access.
- Fast file access and retrieval
- Quick uploads and downloads
- Individual file sharing with users outside of our organization
- We had one problem with file syncing that lost several files. Tech support could not retrieve them. This happened early in our usage and only one time.
- We had an issue with Sync at one point, but that was resolved.
