Aspera is shockingly fast. It's my video company's go-to software for getting large color renders very quickly for an efficient conform & turnaround. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Aspera on Cloud?

Aspera helps keep workflows efficient. Rather than waiting hours for files to upload and download, or shuttling a hard drive across town, it's two easy clicks of a button to get the files downloaded, at least twice as fast as our regular internet would allow.

What do you like best about IBM Aspera on Cloud?

As I have been worked for media and entertainment company , IBM Aspera has been the most favorable file sharing and cloud transfer solution in media industries.

IBM Aspera is the fastest file sharing solution in a highly secured environment. The embedded protocol meets the security standards and speed requirements. Most files that we transfer take a huge amount of space and IBM Aspera allows us to transfer those huge files very quickly. Its a fast paced transfer tool even when the internet speed is not that high. Aspera makes sharing large size files over the internet very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Aspera on Cloud?

The biggest issue is with version control, there are frequent requests that come along to update to the latest version. This becomes a challenge if you use aspera around the clock , any updates will halt asperas use and this can create operational inefficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
