Product Details

What is Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT?

Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT is a secure file transfer solution that automates and encrypts data using industry standard protocols (e.g. OpenPGP, SFTP, HTTPS). With auditing and reporting, GoAnywhere can help organizations meet compliance regulations like PCI DSS and HIPAA.

GoAnywhere can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud. As a VMware-validated product, it also runs in several virtualized environments including VMware, Amazon AWS, and Microsoft Azure. GoAnywhere exchanges batch and ad-hoc file transfers, executes tasks before and/or after transfers, and gives users and partners a secure way to exchange data. The vendor provides MFTaaS deployment to give users an easy way to transfer files while Fortra takes care of the setup, infrastructure management, and backups, all for an expected flat fee.

Pros
  • Data extraction: You can pull data from nearly any database and send it to users/partners in a variety of formats.
  • Data transformation: Great for massaging data and transforming it to XML, text, spreadsheets, etc.
  • Data Integration: An extremely useful tool for moving data between different systems. I have used it to integrate data from Oracle, Netezza, DB2, SQL Server, and even Interbase.
Cons
  • There's no real drag and drop functionality as seen in Datastage or SSIS.
  • There's no way to track data lineage.
  • The scheduler is a kind of hard to use.

Pros
  • Transfers files quickly and securely between locations.
  • It allows the setting of multiple schedules for automation to occur.
  • Supports encryption and allows changing keys easily.
  • Reduces the need to write custom scripts for transferring files.
Cons
  • In the beginning, when implementing, it can take a while to understand how it works thoroughly.
  • Due to the added abilities learning to configure the software can take some time.
  • Training for this product will cost extra. The training is also not excellent.
  • The software seems glitchy at times, sometimes being slow or corrupting jobs.

Pros
  • For an FTP server it is robust but very easy to use and configure.
  • For a project manager for file transfers, it allows you to do nearly anything, from simple file move to file rename, move, zip, and create a new folder location to drop the file in.
  • GoAnywhere has a gateway device that allows for securing the traffic coming from outside your network in without exposing too much of your network.
Cons
  • Ticketing system needs the ability to view the ticket, see status, and what has been done.
