"Secure file sharing that works well for compliance heavy workflows!"
What do you like best about Kiteworks?

What I like most is how controlled everything feels once it is set up. File sharing is locked down properly with clear visibility on who accessed what and when. This helped us a lot when dealing with external partners and audits. The compliance focused features like detailed logs and policy controls gave our team confidence when sharing sensitive files. Performance has also been stable even with large files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kiteworks?

The initial setup and configuration takes time and needs technical involvement.

The interface feels a bit dated and not very intuitive for first time users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Secure and Reliable, But Setup Requires IT Support"
What do you like best about Kiteworks?

I really appreciate Kiteworks for its strong security and access control features. Files can be encrypted, permissions are tightly managed, and as an admin, I can see exactly who accessed what and when, which is reassuring when handling sensitive data. The detailed audit trails and activity logs are fantastic because they automatically log every file activity, such as uploads, views, edits, shares, and permission changes, with user identity, timestamps, and IP details. These logs can't be altered by end users, making them reliable evidence. Plus, the centralized dashboard allows for quick issue identification without technical intervention.

What do you dislike about Kiteworks?

Setup and configuration may require IT support. The initial setup was moderate to complex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
