What do you like best about Progress ShareFile?

Sharefile is a great way to organize customer files - I love that you can create a template with subfolders and it applies to all new folders you create very easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress ShareFile?

The security code verification can be kind of a pain, but I understand it is necessary. I wish there could be more users per license. It is also a lengthy process to move a subfolder to another folder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Eliminating hard copy/paper storage as we have many clients Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Progress ShareFile?

Data is well organized and user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress ShareFile?

It is clunky compared to other services for sharing files because you have to save data often and downtime is slow - then edits may be overwritten by others in the middle of your review - so can be inefficient. Basic features are too limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Progress ShareFile?

Sharefile has many tools that make it easy to use the software, apps to use Desktop or mobile device, attaching files securely or over certain size limits, integrations with other software like RightSignature. It is easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress ShareFile?

There are a few downsides to the software - setting permissions for folders is not easily managed by all users that have admin rights, notification settings for uploads can be easily missed and catching/resetting them is cumbersome, and self-service billing was a little bit of challenge (I was on auto-pay, when changing subscriptions that was changed and I could not get contacted by support at Citrix after leaving messages). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Sharefile solves the problem of sharing documents, storage of documents (digitally) and being able to share documents with others in a secure manner. I can upload documents and clients are then able to access at anytime they have a need to do so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Progress ShareFile?

The system security/encryption coupled with the windows explorer extension. It sets ShareFile apart from other web-based storage systems, by syncing and bringing the data I use and share with others, to my laptop. ShareFile is easy to use easy to upskill others in a matter of minutes and secure enough to trust that not only my data won't be lost, but others won't be able to access it without my express permission. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress ShareFile?

ShareFile doesn't seem to integrate with some of our other platforms like some MS products, such as Sharepoint and Office particularly well. But the various extensions such as the explorer and Outlook extensions allow it to overcome this anyway, so it's a very minor gripe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

External File Sharing with consultants and contractors. It facilitates versioning on the fly, with no configuration changes, and allows us to be efficient with our time when sharing, reviewing and marking up documents as a group. ShareFile makes it easy to collaborate both internally and externally to our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Progress ShareFile?

Citrix share file is very wasy to set up and a very secure place to store all the data on cloud.We can access the files anywhere and anytime. Its best of all platforms available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress ShareFile?

It initially takes some to connect to server and even to reflect changes made to files . If speed and connectivity are improved then it will be best. Speed is something to improve upon Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It eliminate the need to maintain physical storage and even remote access is the biggest advantage. It definitely improved productivity and performance. We have shifted to citrix completely Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Progress ShareFile?

I like best that you used to have Sharefile Sync - it worked great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress ShareFile?

So sorry you switched to Citrix files. Our data has never felt less secure since we have been with your company. It is slow - takes too long to update - even when I have a file checked out, constantly getting notices when I save that a newer version is available - how is that possible - I have the file checked out? It is not just me - not just my computer or network, all of our users report the same issues. The transition was terrible and your help desk had no idea how to help. You now have all of my end users asking that I find something else. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Before the move to Citrix files - it felt like a solid product. I could explain how it was working we had nearly zero end-user issues. Constantly trying to figure out if our data is OK and helping end-users understand why their files aren't saving correctly - why are they getting versioning errors etc. Why when they check in a file does it still look checked out to everyone else 5 minutes later... Help desk is not very helpful and has given us wrong answers on how to handle a problem if you can get an answer at all in any kind of timely manner. Our "rep" was less than helpful on the transition, and would not get any of the answers we asked for including a deadline for transition to Citrix files - we got turned off without any notice and got a that's too bad from the help desk.
