Overall Satisfaction with Citrix ShareFile

Citrix ShareFile is relatively new to us. We are using it to share files with partners and vendors outside our agency as well as to begin the process of digitizing tenant files (we're a property management company and nonprofit). Sharefile helps us to share large files with people as well as organize our existing files.
  • Set up templates for your folders so every folder has the same structure.
  • Work with project management software (such as Podio) to automate some organizational tasks.
  • Communicate with outside vendors and share large files with people that shouldn't be emailed due to size or confidentiality.
  • There's a bit of a learning curve getting Sharefile templates and user profiles set up, but once you're set up it is very user-friendly.
  • We haven't been clear on what "ShareConnect" is and so we haven't been using it.
  • The desktop app for Sharefile has less functionality than the browser version, and it caused some confusion initially. Again, we just don't use the desktop app.
  • ShareFile saves time and helps us stay organized.
  • ShareFile helps us keep confidential files confidential.
  • ShareFile makes it easy to work remotely.
  • internal server and paper files
ShareFile makes it easy to access files remotely and to add files via phone or tablet. Eventually it will replace our internal server, where we have trouble keeping different versions of files straight. It will also replace many of our paper files, saving space and time. As our agency has expanded to inlucde offices in other counties and staff members who frequently work from home or in the field, ShareFile has helped us with internal communication and organization. Our internal server can only be accessed via a remote-in system which is far less reliable.
ShareFile is great for setting up files that need to be set up in the same way every time, i.e. tenant files, client files, etc. The templates make it easy for several staff members to use the system in exactly the same way. ShareFile is also great for sharing large or multiple files with vendors or outside partners. We've also used ShareFile to accept applications that require a large number of supporting documents by using the integration with Podio webforms and GlobiFlow automations.
