Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Serv-U
Our IT has implemented SolarWinds Serv-U for both internal use as well as use by departments outside of IT. Internally it's used when working with other vendors to provide a more secure way to transfer large files, while other departments are using it to transfer files too large to email.
- Implementation was easy.
- No problems managing it so far.
- Love the desktop client.
- Uses Java.
- Cost for licensing was expensive.
- Support is a hassle at times.
- Free up IT time for other issues.
- Less emails bounced due to size thanks to the desktop client.
- Budget took a hit due to licensing costs.
The overall interface of SolarWinds Serv-U was better in my opinion than that of Cerberus. We had several outside users demo both and the SolarWinds desktop client was the selling point for them. Both had an option, but SolarWinds was more user friendly, which was a big plus. Everything else was pretty close between the two.
