“Dislike” may not be the right word, but the only minor negative point we’ve experienced over the past few years was the migration from XFB Gateway to SecureTransport. I believe we were among the early adopters, and at that time SecureTransport wasn’t fully aligned with the XFB Gateway, which made the migration a bit challenging.

Their ZDU feature is highly recommended to minimise interruptions to file transfers. Previously, we struggled to schedule downtimes on our on-premises version because the platform handles critical transfers for us.
