Egnyte

Vorteile

I really appreciate the way Egnyte naturally integrated into our existing business. It calculated the items we had to store and kept them in an impressive bow. The interface is very clean and distinguishable. The features all stand out in their own presence. But the one factor that really earned my loyalty to the software was the storage performance. Egnyte is the powerhouse of online file hosting. It has the durability to carry highly dense files and load them in a concise, quick manner.

Nachteile

Aside from not knowing of this software sooner, I do hope that Egnyte will create the opportunity for collaborative sharing through external mail hosts (email to be specific). Otherwise, I hold the software in high regards.

Vorteile

The feature I like most about Egnyte is that it provides ransomware protection additionally with main features like cloud storage and file sharing.

Nachteile

The thing I dislike about Egnyte is the slow sync speed as it takes very long time to sync large files

Vorteile

It allows us to collaborate on MS documents without the constant problems that Onedrive and sharepoint create.
Customer services is great.

Nachteile

I have not had anything to complain about yet

Vorteile

The governance and security architecture.Running on Egnyt's own data centres.Nothing ever gets lost.Search filters are accurate.Search within files.Desktop product is comfortable for users.Intrusion control is easy to configure.Archiving policies aligned with GDPR.The desktop agent is auto-updating.Support is excellent and fast whatever time of the day.The NAS (smart cache) hybrid product is easy to run and very stable running on a version of Linux.

Nachteile

With the clunky implementation of co-editing Microsoft Office files, users find it hard to get used to compared with OneDrive.The local file editor tool WebEdit is not auto-updating.

Vorteile

I really like how Egnyte is able to sync up with a computer's own folder system making the ability to save and work with secure documents on your computer where ever you are and maintaining files solely within the frame of Egnyte. Also being able to customize our home space with our own logo and colors was a nice touch.

Nachteile

Some of the APIs come with an additional cost, which is sometimes less than satisfactory, and the APIs sometimes have limitations, but otherwise, it's been an entirely positive experience.

Vorteile

No desktop footprint! This is a big win when dealing with distributed workers with laptops. Everyone has full access to files they are allowed, and they take no space (until they are accessed).

I also love the ability to fine-tune permissions at the sub-folder level.

Nachteile

Permissions are the hardest thing for some users to get the hang of. In Egnyte, they aren't difficult, but some users have difficulty managing the permissions on the website, since they only use the folders on their desktop (sync'd).

Vorteile

The fact that so many individuals utilize Egnyte is something I really like. Sending and receiving papers with other people and organizations is a breeze. I won't have to worry about your home screens or device memory being full when I save and retrieve data. The data is stored in a safe environment, and only those I give permission to can access the papers I provide them. It is fantastic to have all my information in one place and accessible from any device, anytime.

Nachteile

Avoid inconsistencies and conflicts by never editing the same file in two places at the same time when sharing it.

Vorteile

Self-explanatory pre-built templates supporting custom LMS for drag-drop and copy-paste to enhance beautiful JavaScript HTML and XML content generation.
Large file cloud storage and transfer.
Cloud Data syncing.

Nachteile

If I mention a drawback,it would be a white lie.

Vorteile

Ease of Use and price point are the main features we prefer

Nachteile

We have had no issues therefore no dislikes for any reason

Vorteile

Our Team heavily relies on Egnyte services. This is where we store all of our updated information that everyone on the team has access to. The thing that I like most about Egnyte, is the sense of security it offers. I take comfort in the fact that all of our company information is in a safe place that only team members can access.

Nachteile

I think one thing Egnyte can work on, is the navigation between different folders. It would be convenient if there was a way to switch over quickly to a new folder, without having to navigate to the home screen. Other than that I have no issues, Egnyte is a great tool for our company.

Vorteile

It's just easy. I need to access files and be able to send them off to coworkers and clients easily. This software allows me to access files from my computer, the website, and an app. I can share links to secure files with an expiration date to access and/or a password. I think the sharing is a lot easier than something like Google Drive. You can also easily see who has last touched a file and restore files that might have been accidentally deleted.

Nachteile

The search definitely has room for improvement. I wish there was a feature where you could ask the Admin of the software for access to something directly.

Vorteile

Easy to set up and share FTP sites. Backup is usually seamless and they email if the computer hasn't been heard from in some number of days that you determine. Egnyte has HIPAA compliant security and lots of good security settings, like invitation links that expire and cannot be forwarded. They can actually provide a HIPAA certificate! The price is very reasonable for everything that's included, and the amount of control you have over your data and settings. There's even an app for android and iPhone. There are lots more features that we don't even use.

Nachteile

Sometimes the backup function locks up without reason. It can usually be resolved with a few clicks, but I've never figured out what happens to prompt the shutdown. The app is great for uploading photos and similar to the site, but I've never been able to use the app to invite a user - everything looks like it's working, but the "save" screen doen't pop up the way it does on the computer, and so it doesn't save the invitation and thus doesn't work. Overall, though we love this software.

Vorteile

Egnyte and its various integrations is an absolute must for a shared file system in any startup. As a growing company, employees have their favorite tools - Engineers seem to prefere Google, Marketing and Sales and Administrative generally need MS Office, etc. Egnyte allows everything to be accessible from a single interface. "where is that slide deck? was it Google Drive or One Drive or just local to your computer?" is a major problem in a fast moving, growing company. Egnyte solves that as part of everyday business.

User administration is simplified with straight forward AD integration and also key is inviting outside consultants to share documents is trivial as well. All huge workflow advantages.

Nachteile

The robust feature set can sometime confuse folks who's user behavior has been set by Google Drive or OneDrive (or even Box or DropBox).

Vorteile

Egnyte makes it easy to store files in a cloud based storage area, but has additional enterprise level capabilities that make it possible to integrate into powerful workflows.

Nachteile

Really the only thing I dislike about Egnyte is that there are no data sovereignty capabilities as far as I can tell. You can't specify where data is stored geographically.

Vorteile

Egnyte is a super cloud solution that have a nice folder structure with a really manageable permission scheme. It's easy to share files - internally and externally. I really appreciate the option for changing url when sharing files. I can also backtrack all my shared links and I can see who have accessed it when. The applications also do the job.

Nachteile

The application have required manually installed updates. I think they might have solved this now. The reports option should maybe have some more options and flexibility.

Vorteile

This product allows my clients to send me large files with great ease. I prefer its functionality to SharePoint or Dropbox because its interface is more user-friendly and the ability to download multiple folders to a single zip folder is very convenient.

Nachteile

My clients have encountered a few problems on the uploading end that have required uploading an item more than once.

Vorteile

Remote access to work server files make working on the go a breeze. I can access anything from anywhere so that I can have all the information I need even when on client meetings.

Nachteile

It can get a little getting used to at first. You no longer will store files on your desktop or folders but rather within a folder in Egnyte.

Vorteile

I love that is can make multiple folders and put permission on it. I like how i can construct a filing system that meet the job needs/criteria and able to keep it a standard.

Nachteile

the favorite star, it never seems to work for me to go to a shortcut folder fast

Vorteile

The software is as easy to use as things that Dropbox and Google Drive, but provides additional capabilities for advanced users, such as FTP access where necessary.

Nachteile

So far I haven't really encountered any issues apart from not having a Linux based sync client.

Vorteile

This product provides the easiest way to share and collaborate on documents for remote volunteer bird members. It’s intuitively set up like a normal server, but allows for real time live collaboration in documents.

Nachteile

I would not change a thing on this software solution!

Vorteile

A very user friendly platform that works seamlessly to share data with a remote team, and be used as a cloud for all data within the office. Very easy to navigate, share, and edit all files within Egnyte.

Nachteile

The only critique would be the quick access panel on the left hand side have clearer icons or sub headings

Vorteile

I like how easy it is to search files within Egnyte.

Nachteile

I dislike the format of the website version.

Vorteile

La courbe permettant la maîtrise de ses fonctionsLa sécurité des données stockées

Nachteile

La non disponibilité dans certains paysLa version gratuite

Vorteile

There are a lot of great features including authentication, sync with 3rd party NAS devices, easy sharing.

Nachteile

I would say we found it too expensive for ourselves. Maybe we didn't used all of the functions that Egnyte allows.

Vorteile

Everything it does.

Google Docs and O365 docs in the same ecossytem.

Version control.

SUPER granular access privilege control.

Trash for up to 6 months.

AND Protect as an optional add on that give AMAZING levels of data security.

And on top of all that the support team is super helpful and fast to respond.

Nachteile

It has its buggy moments. The mobile offering is definitely weaker than the desktop. Deployment can be tricky because it has its quirks you have to train users on.

Vorteile

Ease of setup and administration - multiple platform access (web, local drive mapping, app)

Nachteile

No much - given how flexible the platform is , the guidance on how to use it, and the success rate, this is really nothing I can say negative.

Vorteile

Is everything an acceptable response?
Easy to setup - easy to use
Plugin for Outlook - can create download links to send entire folders
Can setup either as something that syncs a specific file(s) to the Egnyte server or have direct access to the server (depending on the user one is better then the other).
Mobile apps for both iOS and Andriod - everyone has access to all their files from anywhere they have data coverage or Wi-Fi
Their tech support is top notch, always responds same day.

Nachteile

I have yet to find a con. I guess there are free options available (Google Drive and OneDrive) but the free options are very limited so you'll have to eventually buy a plan anyways.

Vorteile

The encryption and key management are the best ones in the sector.

Nachteile

Egnyte appears to be made only for big companies.

Vorteile

Egnyte is very user friendly and easy to administer.

Nachteile

Syncing was at times a problem. Quickbooks files could not sync.

Vorteile

One of the things that I like very much about Egnyte is the ability to upload files in bulk. Also, we can access files from any device, and the cloud storage security is top-notch.

Nachteile

I do not have any major dislike for Egnyte. Everything is to my liking, and I hope it stays that way

Vorteile

Simple settings and plugins.Cloud Data synchronisation and large file sharing.Visual edition.Cloud Data storage and maximum encryption.

Nachteile

If I were to reward cloud Data management vendors, I would undoubtedly reward egnyte.

Vorteile

This software ends with the big file sharing issues by storing all your work files in the cloud.
This comes with the benefit of keeping your computer clean and light.
Also, sharing files among coworkers is made easy by using short links. You can specify the type of permissions you want for a given folder so that you can make it available only to a particular group of people, for example. This is useful when sensitive content is being shared.
Another great functionality, if you work with vendors, is you can provide them with a link that will just allow them to drop files while they won't be able to see or modify its contents.

Nachteile

- While having everything in the cloud is great you need to account for time spent downloading and uploading content, which can be a lot depending on your Internet connection.

Vorteile

The ability to install Egnyte drives to your machine has made file browsing, downloading and updating a seamless breeze that integrates right into your operating system. Egnyte allows a user to revert back to previous versions or restore deleted files which is a huge help when file error or human error occurs. Their online web tool is great for searching and takes away the limit of the operating system which slows the search down. Their online tool is also great for file management and version controlling.

Nachteile

The only downfall I have found is that Egnyte requires a relatively strong and fast internet connection to properly perform, and I have had occasions where this has let me down and cause file malfunctions between users.

Vorteile

The ease of use, accesability to files from any network, super easy to transfer files to anyone via a link so that emails don't get bogged down. I'd say my favorite feature is the outlook add-in that lets me upload and share my large media files.

Nachteile

At first, I didn't like the desktop sync because it confused a lot of users in my office and created double storage caches of files. However, they switched to egnyte connect and I believe these problems were solved.

Vorteile

Egnyte keeps track of everything. All our contacts, deals and activities are all inn one place sp everyone knows what is going on with every client and deal

Nachteile

It can be slow loading sometimes (probably because we have so much data in there). I don't care for the email feature, so I linked my email to Egnyte. It works seamlessly

Vorteile

Very robust software for storing documents in the cloud. Allows everyone to access latest versions. Favorite aspect is the ability to share files and be notified when and where they are opened from. It's also nice to have version history for files. Lastly, having desktop file access makes using very seamless. It's just like using your regular (C:) drive.

Nachteile

Sharing capability has to be done through the online site. It would be nice to be able to get a sharing link straight from the desktop file system.

Vorteile

Easy to use, easy to track who is working on what, it provides a way to email out of company large file links to download from.

Nachteile

I don't think I have any complaints with this software. The issues

Vorteile

We have several remote workers in our company, and this allows everyone to access the same folders. Easily downloads and syncs onto your computer. We switched to Egnyte after our server was dying, and this proved to be an affordable, secure solution to our digital files. It's easy to customized access to different users, allowing for private HR and accounting files.

Nachteile

If you are accessing from the website (rather than downloading), it can be slow. It defaults to sending everyone in the company a ton of emails, which can easily be turned off but can be annoying at first.

Vorteile

This product keeps all our records from all team members in one place. It makes it easy to see if we already have contact with a client, file all contracts, and also we can securely share files with clients

Nachteile

I have no complaints, this is a very expandable product. It has served well in organizing all our client records

Vorteile

Great software and portal for file and file-sharing. I have the option to use Egnyte in my browser, as a drive on my PC or as automatic desktop backup. All options can also work together. The structure of files can be made as you like and the sharing options are great. You can edit files in your browser or open and edit in your desktop client. The sharing options are great and you can customize what people should be able to see or do. Clients can get access to specific folders etc.

Nachteile

It takes some time to learn how to use it due to the many options. I think it is a learning curve that's worth using time on. Egnyte cannot handle large files which is annoying as a designer. Inherited permissions can become a bit of a mess and there's not really any easy way to make it better. Reporting could also be improved.

Vorteile

We can share a heavy file that can not be shared by email.We can lock this file by password and share the password a particular one.

Nachteile

Mobile view can be modified and meet the expectations.

Vorteile

Being able to have Egnyte integrate with Salesforce is a must. The software gives us a documents for each of our records and was pretty easy to setup. Love it!

Nachteile

With us using Egnyte wishing Salesforce, we never use their web interface (which is still great) and we currently don't have a way to search files in individual records. This feature would be a great and helpful addition.

Vorteile

Egnyte is a great software to store files it is very user-friendly I have a lot of clients within my law practices and anytime I need to find a police report disclosure or any other information that I need everything is easily stored and Egnyte I have found it to be the best site for file story

Nachteile

Sometimes it appears that there are duplicate files created and causes a little confusion when I'm searching for just one document within the search bar this has been a little frustrating but it doesn't happen often and it hasn't changed the fact that I really enjoy using egnyte software

Vorteile

Really happy using this product. It is our company's primary data repository and offers us an efficient way to manage our data. As a user, setup was incredibly easy with just a link to follow and within a minute I had a z-drive set up and and it was just like accessing a normal folder on my hard drive. Happy to be using it. It is simple and efficient, yet powerful.

Nachteile

Didnt work so well over the web as there appears to be default privilege restrictions in editing/changing folders but once a z drive is set up it was fine

Vorteile

We use Egnyte as our file repository and cloud storage platform. The new feature that allows co editing is the one I like the most. While allowing us to use MS native apps and not use Google for simultaneous collaboration, I think it is a wonderful tool. It also syncs well with Mac and Windows folders allowing access on computer directly than having to go to web each time it needs to be accessed.

Nachteile

The collaboration feature edits sometimes are delayed not giving the live and current updates being made by other parties.

Vorteile

I love that I can access documents I need anywhere -- we moved from an onsite server that required a VPN to access off-site and which was slow and not very useful, to Egnyte which allows my to grab documents from my phone and is so much more efficient.

Nachteile

Sorting documents is a bit lacking sometimes when I want to simply search for the most recent document of any file time within a number of subfolders. There is no real good way to do this at this time.

Vorteile

Secure, fast and reliable cloud. You can use it for sharing a lot of files and keeping the most important ones so other can access.

Nachteile

Sometimes the cloud is creating a second copy of the files which leads to a missunderstanding.

Vorteile

Very easy to use with great tech support. This software gives you the ability to store all documentation in the cloud which can be accessed by employees from anywhere.

Nachteile

I would like the cost to be a little less, but other than that nothing really negative to say at this point.

Vorteile

Working with large teams and large files, Egnyte was the thing we were always missing. The ability to access and control collaborative files across our team has streamlined our entire process. The ability to integrate numerous app already in place in our company is what put this over the top.

Nachteile

It may be very pricey for the average team, but at the enterprise level, it is highly recommended.

Vorteile

Put together well, lots of options

Nachteile

The learning curve is steep
