What do you like best about Progress ShareFile?

Easy to support. Easy to get users to upgrade/update. New interface has built-in update feature which is nice. Nothing new to manage for sys admins. Can customize the web front end as a branded product. Smooth user experience with AutoCAD & ArcGIS. Citrix Workspace makes it easy for University students to access their educational apps and resources. This is both on campus or at home or in the Dorms in a way that’s simple for IT to manage and scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress ShareFile?

Sometimes users are confused on what to do to update/upgrade. Does not work well through the web interface...have to direct users to direct download from Citrix. Licensing is expensive..also, there is separate licensing for the drivers for the graphics cards. Graphics servers are also expensive. No available licensing to host 'Adobe Creative Cloud' apps/suite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress ShareFile:

Be prepared to spend good $$$ on graphics servers...licensing in required not only got the server software, but also, for the graphics card drivers. Some vendors are not easy to deal with, so ask a lot of questions up front. Do your homework! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress ShareFile solving and how is that benefiting you?

Updated client works better for users to access updated Citrix farm servers where the apps are hosted. Support for graphics servers with high end graphics cards...can support 3D software titles in autocad & geography. It simplifies the way we manage and secure apps so we can deliver the best user experience. Also, it increases user productivity and engagement through simpler IT. Citrix Workspace meets the needs of our mobile workforce & student classwork to enable mobility without limits. Now we have an environment with less exploits & vulnerabilities.

What do you like best about Progress ShareFile?

I like how easy it is to use and that it is cloud base which make accessing it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress ShareFile?

What I dislike is there could be some lag time between the Citrix mapper tool when updating files to the cloud. There were situations where I give a user permissions to for a folder and they do not see it on their mapper. I ended up having to reset the app for it to show up.

I also dislike that there is no global permissions where you can prevent users from dragging folders into an incorrect place. I had users where they accidentally drag folders into other folders.

With Sharefile it also makes sharing files with client super easy and secure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress ShareFile:

An organization looking for a replacement for an on-premises file server solution and do not like the way Sharepoint with One drive works.

Easy to access either from a mobile app or tablet

Can perform FTP and integrate with other software other Citrix platforms like Citrix workspace.

Each user gets 90 GB of shared space, and a personal folder as well.

They are compliant with HIPAA, SOC2 Compliant, and other financial compliance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress ShareFile solving and how is that benefiting you?

By using Sharefile users do not have to VPN to access files to work. We also do not have a need for on-premises hardware. As long as a user have Internet connection they are able to access files which make working remotely easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
