Overall Satisfaction with Egnyte

We use Egnyte as our secure file sharing service across our organization. This is very helpful in sharing secure information, especially IT keys and reports, with our clients, as well as internally. We have even used the option to create a custom URL to allow more continuity for our branding.
  • Secure sharing with options to require password and time limits
  • Logging of access to shared links
  • Ability to allow custom url for links
  • Because it is an additional service, it creates added steps for users (compared to sharing in google or Microsoft)
  • Without custom URL, some end users are not familiar with Egnyte brand, and can cause confusion
  • Secure file share
  • File share access tracking
  • Custom URL
  • We feel confident in the reliability of having Egnyte handle our secure sharing
  • Access control reporting helps us ensure we know who access our files, when and where
Egnyte provided a secure and reliable platform for our specific need [for] secure file sharing. We do not rely on Egnyte for syncing files or for a corporate internal file share, which is how we use Google Drive. But, we are pleased with the customizations and tracking of shares that are present and used in Egnyte. This was the reason for our decision.

Do you think Egnyte delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Egnyte's feature set?

Yes

Did Egnyte live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Egnyte go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Egnyte again?

Yes

For uses similar to how we use Egnyte, as insecure links with tracking and reporting of access, I recommend using this software. For a day-to-day file share, it may not be as [a] continent or as reliable a Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive, but for a secure file share, this service fits the bill.
