What do you like best about Progress ShareFile?

I like that whenever I share a link to a file using Sharefile with a colleague,the link doesn’t expire until after a thirty day period,during which the party I shared the link with can still access the shared link to download content or track the file.

I find Sharefile easy to use and very much fast for sharing files than any other means.Also,Sharefile creates a sort of library which contains a list of files I have recently sent,thus making it easy to reaccess and send these files,if I need to. More importantly ,files we share on Sharefile are encrypted and this is very important to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive files passed from person to person,within my organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress ShareFile?

Unavailability of a url shortened for shortening links to shared files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I rely on Sharefile to send large file types which cannot usually be attached to email.It is very easy to use,even for staffs with little technical knowledge and this saves my organization financial cost,which is usually spent on training staffs to learn to use new software ; in the case of Sharefile,there has really been no need for staffs to undergo any formal training.

What do you like best about Progress ShareFile?

Being able to create a link or sending a message directly with the file attached is very useful. You can email a link to the uploaded files directly to the recipient which means you don't need to copy and paste links if you don't want to. It's convenient that Sharefile keeps "recent" files on your Sharefile dashboard so you can quickly share the same file with multiple users. Multifactor authentication means this is also a secure platform for sharing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress ShareFile?

I wish there was an option for a URL shortener! The links are quite long and cumbersome. I also would like it if the "recent files" list was longer as sometimes I'll want to share a file again that I recently uploaded to Sharefile but it's already gone from my "recent" list. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress ShareFile:

Pricing and that Sharefile works best when it is integrated with your single sign on service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Email attachment limits are low and they're also "one off". A Sharefile link remains active for upwards of 30 days meaning if the recipient misses the initial message, or loses track of the file, they can revisit the original URL and re-download the contents.

What do you like best about Progress ShareFile?

I like how easy this is to use! We have an area on our site for members to upload secure documents to us and it takes little to no explanation for us to teach them how to upload. It's nice not having to explain a different software to them. I also love that I can generate a link that expires. I use this a lot if I need to send credit card information via email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress ShareFile?

There's not much that I dislike. It can kind of be a process to get everything uploaded sometimes but that's really not ShareFiles fault. Be default it just requires more work to do this than send a regular email but when you have a secure document, it only makes sense there would be an extra step to send it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress ShareFile:

do it! it seems like it's software that not many people think about but there is definitely a need especially if you have anything with payments sent via email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Sending secure documents back and forth and knowing that they will live in email forever. Should our email ever be compromised, people would then have access to all of that information. Now, we don't have to worry because all of the secure files are uploaded via a link that expires. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a cost effective solution which is good for SMEs trying to grow with limited finances but that is about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It saves so much on costs. It is a one size fits all solution which is very easy to maintain and run. Turnover in contact centres is always high so the need for setting up and deleting profiles is made simple with this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
