My Experience with EFT using Globalscape!
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Globalscape in a twofold approach. First, we use the application to share files with external companies using Globalscape Workspaces and second we use the application to transfer files outbound as well as inbound to our external vendors. Globalscape makes it very easy to create quick transmission logic without the need of a developer.
