MOVEit Transfer Review
We have purchased several products from Progress such as MOVEit Transfer, MOVEit Automation, and MOVEit EZ in addition to some features such as High Availability for both Transfer and Automation as well as PGP encryption for Automate. These are business-critical and customer facing tools we have deployed and depend on for a number of our company's products.
- Managed File Transfers
- Secure file transfer solution
- Valuable features
- Very responsive Support Team
- High-Availability features aren't very dependable
- Version upgrades have caused significant issues (PGP keyring corrupted)
- MOVEit Transfer does not handle larger files very well
- Managed file transfer
- Integration with other solutions
- Encyption/decryption
- Complete automation of several customer workflows
MOVEit Transfer handles our customers' uploads with the exception of customers who upload large files. We have found Signiant to be a much better solution for large files whereas MOVEit Transfer continue to manage the overwhelming majority of our customer data.

MoveIt makes my life easier!
We use MoveIt to streamline the movement of files. It's not only used for IT purposes, but various business units as well. As we aim to automate more and more processes, MoveIt is proving to be an extremely valuable tool for us. It's intuitive, flexible, and powerful. It really allows to us just set it and forget it.
- It is very flexible
- File parsing / manipulation is easy
- The programmability built into it makes advanced tasks much easier to implement
- Email "Templates" would be nice. Instead of creating an email alert per job, requiring each job to be update when there's a change, have a template that can apply to multiple jobs
- Logging in the webUI isn't the greatest. The log retention period could be better
- Keep more than 5-runs of detailed job logs
- Reliability
- Flexability
- Ease of Use
- We see over 5000 operations a day, saving HOURS of employee time. Many of these operations happen over night after day-end processing which would not be feasible to have a staff member manage.
- Allows for consistent file movement policies (Always encrypt for example)
- Used for moving business critical files across nearly every department.
We previously used Attunity MFT (Formerly Repliweb MFT); We were looking to move away from the platform becuase, while flexible, it was too flexible. The flexibility was gained by running scripts with each job to do what you want. So, not only did you have to define the job (Source and Destination), you had to have a fairly strong programming background. Tasks as simple as renaming files with a date stamp, required a script be written. MoveIt has many of these basic macros available for file name manipulations like various date pieces, times, file names, etc, and they're all well documented. Ex: [OrigName] = Original Filename (TestFile.pdf), [OnlyName] = Just the filename, no extension (TestFile), [OnlyExt] = Just the file extentions (.pdf). Pretty much every field within a job can use pre-defined Macros, which is a huge benefit. We also moved away from that platform because it had gone stale, it wasn't their "Core" product. The vendor supported it, but was not actively developing it or fixing bugs or anything. We went 2-3 years without even an update to the binary. MoveIt is one of Progress's "Core" products, so they are adding features / functionality and fixing bugs actively.

MOVEIT Review
MOVEit is being used across the whole organization and helps the automation of file movement so that we can eliminate manual processes. Unless we can find a comparable method, we want to continue to use this platform.
- Workflow Automation
- Movement of Files
- Adding on Jobs to automate
- Better error tracking
- Better documentation to be used by a technical team
- Automation blocks occur
- Automation
- Movement of Files
- Positive in terms of automation and decreased labor
- Some technical troubleshooting difficulties when issues pop up
We've been using MOVEIt for years and after several assessments, we felt that it was an unnecessary cost and lift to try and move away from the platform, given that it was meeting all of our current business needs. As the company grows, we will continue to assess whether MOVEIt will work for our company but it does seem that the company is continuing to make improvements on their development.

Have your secure transfers with MOVEit
We are using Ipswitch MOVEit across the departments as the base system for files transfers between us and our customers and between us and our vendors. It is helping us achieve the following goals:
- having the ability to transfer large size files between us and customers/suppliers
- highly securing the files transfers since we are dealing with highly sensitive IPs
- doing the above in an easy and friendly manner
- Huge files transfer between internal and external sites
- Secure transfers.
- Nice and friendly user Interface
- More features could be added in the UI, like drag and drop files
- Setting up the system initially can be a little difficult
- More flexibility on the user's permissions can help - we have specific requirements to empower people like project managers to manage only their own projects(folders) and even to create external users for customers. We had to build a custom application that uses the MOVEit API to implement these requirements.
- The cost is a little high for the features that it offers.
- It gave us the ability to exchange files with customers and vendors in a secure manner.
- Given the sensitivity of our files exchange, MOVEit helped in gaining the trust of our customers that their data is safe.
- Using its API, we were able to build a custom app that is adding even more features, specific to our needs, like empowering project managers with more permissions on their folders
- Box
We started using Box a while ago and we are thinking of exchanging MOVEit with Box when it comes to customer and suppliers file transfers. However, there is some reticence in doing that right now, our IT feels more comfortable form the security point of view with MOVEit. Eventually, we will move everything to Box since it is clearly the next level in terms of files storage, transfers, features, etc.
