GoAnywhere MFT - Way more than just FTP software
What do you like best about the product?
We originally purchased GoAnywhere to give us a more secure FTP server. While our specific need was to offer our business partners and vendors secure data transmission via SFTP, we were very pleased to know that GoAnywhere supports a number of additional secure file transfer protocols, including FTPS, HTTPS, and GoAnywhere Secure Mail (with an optional Outlook plugin).
GoAnywhere not only has "service" support, for services like HTTPS, SFTP, etc., it also supports workflow project creation. After our initial implementation of our services, we began to incorporate a number of very flexible advanced workflow projects. These projects utilize a number of GoAnywhere built-in components, including zip/unzip, PGP encryption/decryption, SFTP (GET, PUT, DELETE, LIST, etc.), SQL, email, job control, process loops, and external program calls. There are additional components (like REST and SOAP Web Services) that we have not even begun to use.
GoAnywhere is just an all-around fantastic product.

What do you dislike about the product?
We are really quite pleased with GoAnywhere's capabilities to solve our business problems. I have had only one minor issue where I have not received resolution (yet). GoAnywhere offers the capability to connect to different types of servers and network shares. I have been able to establish a connection from our production server to a specific Windows Server via a Network Share resource, but attempts to transfer files from the production server to Windows Server via a GoAnywhere project are failing. Support has not been able to replicate the issue. It could be operator error on my part, or it could be that I am trying to do something that is better suited for GoAnywhere Agents.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In short, PCI compliance. Our previous secure FTP software vendor was not planning on updating required security protocols, so we were forced to select a different secure FTP software vendor. The benefit we received was much more than what we were looking for. We have since been able to replace other software products because of the advanced workflow capabilities built into GoAnywhere MFT.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Anyone who has a business or regulatory need for secure file transmission should consider GoAnywhere MFT.
