They charged 10 additional users without my knowledge or approval **Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 03, 2024 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** I have been using this product for about 11+ years paying over $ 500 a year just to access my files (way less than 1 TB) when I want, for convenience. This year they charged me $ 1600+ without informing me. When I called them, they claim that I am accessing the file from different machines? Really? When I put files on cloud you expect me to just access them from one machine? and they do not want to refund the money for additional users they charged. I am moving away from these unethical people. I could get the cloud storage accessible for free using google drive, the reason I still kept paying them was it was affordable and I was used to it. They are outrageously greedy and unethical in their business practices. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** Unethical in business practices, do not inform customers and charge whatever amount they feel like when it is time for renewal. Be aware of these people. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** Convenient data/file access **Official Response from Kaveri Mekerira:** > Thank you for taking time to write a review.

The personal information we need to hold on file is automatically crossreferenced with the data protection rules and laws for that juristiction.

They give an amazing solution to secure your sensitive data in the cloud from attacks and ransomware detection. We can simply exchange files, update the essential material, and upload new files using Egnyte; you can also share and upload enormous files, which is quite convenient. As a cloud platform, it also provides easy access to the information we require from anywhere and at any time. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** To be honest, I don't have any significant dislikes for Egnyte; it's a great tool for saving time and improving our overall efficiency; the only thing I don't like about it is that sometimes the document classification is a little lacking when I simply want to search for the most recent document from any file within multiple subfolders; there's no good way to do this at the moment, and support could be a little faster. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** Sharing files on a cloud platform is a straightforward way to share data with clients, and clients can even offer comments. File transmission is simple for huge files. Any essential data is safeguarded and handled in a secure environment with Egnyte. Many businesses gain significantly from this since you feel safe and secure. Sharing many files in different formats internally and between clients is one of the primary business difficulties that Egnyte has handled for us; besides, the procedure is incredibly simple and quick. ### 23. Reliable software, easy to implement and use. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** John L. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 25, 2023 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** Egnyte allows me to view my work papers from any location in the world as long as I have an internet connection. This is one of the greatest file sharing applications I've encountered; we can exchange data in a cloud-based environment without having to worry about security when working away. What I appreciate best about Egnyte is that it allows distant teams to securely communicate documents. I also enjoy how simple the platform is to use and the flexibility it provides to scattered teams. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** You are practically dependent on a functioning and consistent Internet connection in order to utilize the product. It sometimes takes a long time to process data and I find it tough to get assistance; it takes a long time to explore and find the correct information article for the difficulties you are experiencing. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is resolving security difficulties when sharing data, it is also simple to cooperate with colleagues and clients, and it has made life easier by allowing users to exchange files over the cloud without fear of losing confidentially.

Super Convenient File Sharing **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Commercial Real Estate | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 25, 2024 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** The best part about the product is the convenience. It is user friendly and doesn't require much training to new employees. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** My wish list is to receive notification when a link is to expire or at least the option to choose to be reminded. We use this system for sharing files with outside parties and it would be helpful to be able to extend the period of the acces with just a click. Otherwise you must go in their yourself to extend the period of access. When you use as many links as we do, it becomes cumbersome to remember which are important. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** This product provides an extra layer of access. When you are dealing with outside parties, it is the best way to manage file access. ### 25. Secure and easy-to-use cloud-based storage platform. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Glenda P. | Business Development, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2023 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** It is a simple and easy-to-use platform for securely storing and sharing data. The design makes it simple to keep things organized and instantly access your files. Best of all, we can view project files via Egnyte from any connected device, giving us more control over who has access to the documents and what actions may be made on them. Egnyte is essentially a cloud platform where we can save and share documents with others. What I like best about Egnyte is its interface; it is simple to use and, most importantly, every time we share a document, the password secured file is created. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** It does not handle files greater than 15 GB and has very limited offline access control; it presently does not enable third-party app integrations; and it uses rudimentary encryption in transit and at rest, making it hard to communicate sensitive data. It would be ideal if there was a way to provide markups or comments right on the file in Egnyte. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** Egnyte enables my business to securely share chosen files, which we can access from any place. We can also edit files from anywhere and on any device, allowing for remote work and seamless on-site collaboration. Rather of replacing your laptop, you may log in and utilize it from any laptop. We are outsourcing, thus we require a server or cloud space, and Egnyte is the finest for the task. We transfer documents and other crucial information via Egnyte since it is simple and safe. ### 26.

This is a virtual server that is infinitely scalable, allows you to recover previous versions of a file and trash. The search through the browser is lightning fast and obliterates any search attempted through the desktop. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** The need to have two interfaces to accomplish some tasks. Although the browser view is very elegant, you still have to navigate to it. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** It made all our problems go away.

It saves us so much time. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** At this point, I haven't experienced anything that would cause me to say I dislike Egnytye. It works perfectly for our needs. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** The biggest issue we had was our employees creating and storing documents all over the place. Locally and on other cloud providers. I was getting tired of email attachements for collaborative documents. Solving this immediately made us more productive. ### 32.

Use for work on a daily basis. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospitality | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2024 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** Easy to use. It's easy to access and navigate to find or send files to clients or co-workers. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** When searching for a file because I don't know the name of the document it doesn't always find it. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** Document sharing **Official Response from Kaveri Mekerira:** > Thank you for the review. ### 35.

Excellent File Sharing Tool **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Alex G. | Real Estate Acquisitions, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 18, 2024 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** Ease of use, and has a great mobile interface **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** There is nothing that I dislike about the tool - it's great. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use this as a file sharing tool and it is way better than anything else we have tried to use in the past - very easy to share and upload files across teams. ### 37. Egnyte makes it easy to access documents & by organized **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Amie P. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 20, 2023 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** We are a small law firm, with about 7 licenses. We get a lot of documents and need them to be accessed easily from nearly everywhere. Egnyte allows us to do this and more. My staff love the notificiations, which allow us to discuss a document. This makes supervisor reviews a snap. We also love the links allowing us to send large batches of documents to people outside our firm. I also really love all the security functions. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** Honestly, not much. We've been on the product since 2017. At the time, the product was sold in bundles of 10. This required me to always have too many licenses. However, my sales associate this year said that was no long required. The only remaining thing is I'd like to be able to go to seperate page to review all my notifications, rather than just a drop down box. But this is pretty minor, as I get my notifications emailed to me and can access them through the email instead. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** We use Egnyte to manage documents at our law firm. Egnyte allows us to easily store, access, discuss and share our documents/data from anywhere and on a multitude of devises. We particularly love the cell phone app, that allows us to scan documents by merely taking a photo. So much easier than having to cart around a scanning devise or rely on paper documents. ### 38. New Egnyte User **Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ken D. | Accounting Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 22, 2024 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** That when I drag and drop files it over rights the previous file. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** I do not really have an answer for this. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** We use it to work with FloQast **Official Response from Kaveri Mekerira:** > Thank you for the review Ken. ### 39.

I also love that I can work offline if needed, and really like the link-sharing feature for clients! **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** I have only contacted customer service a couple of times and my questions were answered, it just wasn't as smooth and easy as I would have liked **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** We wanted something that all of our team members could access, while also having our files on our harddrives. ### 41. Great Program... **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Construction | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 18, 2024 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** One of the best attributes of Egnyte is that you just have to go to one drive to find whatever you need. Like before we had several different drives and would have to do a search to find what we want or try to recall where the file was saved. This way is much quicker and easier. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** I really don't have anything that I dislike about the program. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** Being able to go to just one drive to find what I need. ### 42. Good for organization. **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 22, 2024 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** It's easy to use. We don't use all of the features, but we use it daily for file organization so it is useful. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** It sometimes freezes up and the customer support can't do much about it. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** It's a good place to put our stuff. ### 43. Exceptional tool for general information management and team collaboration **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2024 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** Egnyte has proven to be a valuable asset to our team.

Great file sharing tool and easy to find files quickly **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consulting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 10, 2023 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** It is very easy to find templates from the thousands of client files that we have on our server. Searching within the native Windows search function is really slow and will usually fail to even find the relevant files. Egnyte searches are always fast too to use from the browser. I use egnyte everyday. It's also very easy to provide shared folders to our clients for secure document uploads, which they sometimes prefer over email. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** The mandatory password resets are too frequent, I feel. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** Egnyte helps us securely backup and manage all of our client files. The uploading/downloading of files (even large files) is always fast, which was not the case with similar solutions I encountered at other firms. ### 45. Egnyte review **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Logan N. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2023 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** I can share links to files that are too big to send a s attachments **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** There's not a way to scrol through all files. You have to tab over ifthe directly is too large **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are able to collaboratively work on files across the nation together. ### 46. mostly positive **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** E L K. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 24, 2024 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** Program allows for easy upload and download and sharing of documents **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** sometimes the links to others do not work **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** transferring of large files to others ### 47.

An excellent cloud-based file sharing solution **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Makenzie H. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 21, 2023 **What do you like best about Egnyte?** I like how easy and intuitive Egnyte's interface is. It makes it super easy to store, retrieve, organise and collect documents with ease. I have set up several folders for organisation purposes - each dedicated to a specific type of incoming document, as well as a 'Done' folder where I can move items once they are completed - this has made managing my documents so much more efficient! There's also the option to hide containers until you need them, which is very convenient and secure. **What do you dislike about Egnyte?** I find Egnyte's large file upload process daunting, as files are usually easy and quick to update or download once they've been successfully uploaded. In addition, upload crashes can be annoyingly frequent, often forcing me to start from scratch. Worst of all are the installation and configuration issues that Mac users in my organisation have experienced - causing significant delays overall. **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** I no longer feel anxious or isolated when it comes to managing client and company data - Egnyte gives me the security and sense of connectedness I need by allowing me to store, share and communicate information securely. ### 49.

I have not been let down yet! **What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?** Egnyte helps provide reporting for a select number of our business partners that help them reconcile costs associated with the our product that is being sold within their business.
