What do you like best about Egnyte?

We were hesitant to switch to a cloud-based system as we have a considerable amount of data, however Egnyte has been a fantastic solution for us. The stability and ability to use it anywhere, and on nearly any device is what we like the most about Egnyte. We use it every day. Customer support has been very good, when needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

I would like to see a more streamlined document/data sharing platform akin to a ShareFile type design. Also, the admin portal is a bit innundating for those of us who aren't IT professionals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?

Egnyte gives us a great platform to have secure data storage for legal documents and sensitive information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Egnyte?

As a reviewer and a heavy user, I gotta say, Egnyte isn't your grandma's cloud storage. It's got all the security features of Fort Knox, but with way less chance of you getting lost in a filing maze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

Alright, so Egnyte definitely keeps your data safe, maybe a little too safe. Sometimes I feel like I need a decoder ring and a top-secret clearance just to access a spreadsheet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?

1. File Sharing Chaos: Gone are the days of endless email attachments and confusing version control. Egnyte keeps everything organized and accessible in one secure place. No more hunting down the "final_final_v3_really_final.docx"!

2. Security Nightmares: Data breaches are a constant worry. Egnyte's robust security features give me peace of mind. My files are encrypted, access is controlled, and I can even track who's viewing or editing them.

3. Peace of Mind: Knowing my data is secure allows me to focus on what matters – actually getting work done! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Egnyte?

Egnyte makes file sharing easy, especially on mixed networks (PC and Mac). The software mounts the drive, making it very easy for users to quickly access their data, including sharing options and working offline. I'm also very happy with the built-in security features and the additional Secure and Governance tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

My major issue with Egnyte is their split support for Macs. They have the original Egnyte Desktop and a new Egnyte Core app - to deal with some security issues within macOS, however, they keep updating each, and in my experience, you can't have both in the same network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?

Egnyte has allowed a lot of my clients to break free of the traditional vpn/fileshare and allow everyone to work from wherever. Quick access to files on all devices (including iPhones) has supercharged the organizations I'm helping really have quick access to their data and workflows.

Transition to onsite server to Egnyte was easy and painless. I was able to migrate share and permissions without any problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

All of the new features seem to be web based only. I have users that insist on using the desktop client because they like the mapped drives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?

Able to shut down all of my on prem servers. All of my users can connet to the data now from all over the contry without VPNs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
