While the software offers flexible installation across Windows, Linux, and other platforms, it requires OS management by the user. This contrasts with virtual appliance solutions and could strain IT resources, especially for smaller teams.

The end-use license scheme is a more favorable approach.

Greate SFTP and file management\automation Tool

  • May 07, 2025
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The GoAnywhere MFA system is great and easy to use. I set it up fast, and it works well with our SFTP environment. It adds solid security without slowing things down. I also like how it fits with the automation tools — sending and receiving files runs smooth and safe. Everything just works, and I don’t have to worry about security or file transfers failing.
What do you dislike about the product?
How we cannot change some of the UI colour to fit our organisations colour standards and formats. Its small things that such as the green that appears on the buttons ect. The tool should allow us to change anything especially if the purpose of some functionality is meant to be customer facing
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it for our SFTP site and file collecting and transferring with the automation features it has.

Helpful advice and guidance

  • May 06, 2025
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Having a central location for all my data transfer tasks is best. Repeating tasks which were impossible to monitor, scattered all over the network have been replaced with a single point of management.
What do you dislike about the product?
I found, and still find, the initial learning curve to be extremely steep. Once you have implemented project, it is relatively simply to design new project with similar functions, but that first time can be a real challenge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problems GA has solved has been in reducing unnecessary file transfers. We have a number of processes that update files which need to be synchronized to a variety of "in-production" deployments. Where we has timed synchronizations running every few minutes, with GA's Monitoring Triggers, files are checked at a times interval, but only synchronized when a change has occurred. We have seen a significant "quieting" of the network from this.
