**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Vahe P. | Senior Android Developer, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Egnyte?**

With Egnyte, I have a reliable place to store and access all of my work whenever I need it, making it the perfect choice for file sharing. With this service, I can easily sync my files across all my devices and access them from anywhere. When dealing with large amounts of data or collaborating with colleagues, the time saved by quickly and efficiently uploading and downloading files is invaluable. In areas where mobility is critical, the platform's ability to provide access from any device - at home, in the office or on the road - has proven to be a significant benefit.

**What do you dislike about Egnyte?**

It can take a few minutes to reload files during pauses, and there are a few areas that need improvement, such as folder security (I can't currently lock folders).

**What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our organization has been using Egnyte as our primary file sharing solution. It allows us to centralize document storage in the cloud and make it available from any device, be it a PC, smartphone, or anything else. When it comes to cross-team collaboration and remote access to critical information, the high level of security for sharing important documents with clients is especially helpful. Incorporating this into your document management strategy gives you peace of mind should you ever need to back up or recover information that you have accidentally deleted.

**Official Response from Kaveri Mekerira:**

> Thank you for your review, Vahe. You can use permissions to ‘lock down’ a folder (i.e. make it read only for everyone except the owner and admins). I hope this helps.

  ### 21. Overpriced, poor customer service, always pushing for a upsell

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Srikanth D. | QA Analyst, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 05, 2024

**What do you like best about Egnyte?**

Its large storage capacity is one of its most notable features, but what's even better is that it automatically organizes the information it stores. I also like the fact that I can create custom instances; the storage space it provides allows you to import data from different devices (phones, laptops, computers, etc.), which is handy because it prevents your system from slowing down and gives you access to your data whenever you need it. Its uptime and performance are second to none, and it integrates with other applications in an incredible way.

**What do you dislike about Egnyte?**

My only gripe with Egnyte is that I occasionally have trouble navigating to the main section of the admin dashboard, which is necessary for some tasks. However, this is far from a deal breaker.

**What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Egnyte has been an incredible asset to our company's file and data storage needs. After setting up automatic storage, all of our quotes, past quotes and contracts, billing information, and media files (such as photos and videos) are securely stored in an easily accessible format. I really appreciate the cloud-based nature and ease of use, as well as the fact that it is accessible from any device.

**Reviewed Date:** July 04, 2024

**What do you like best about Egnyte?**

Thanks to Egnyte, I was able to establish engagement and sharing mechanisms for constant file sharing, which has a great impact on our day-to-day business. Our company's sensitive and confidential data is protected thanks to its advanced encryption, role-based access restrictions and compliance with numerous security requirements, such as GDPR and HIPAA. Connecting files to the cloud for our storage has proven to be very streamlined.

**What do you dislike about Egnyte?**

The program could use some work and more support material on its integration with other platforms; I had to reach out to support to help us with our setup with Google Workspace and Salesforce, and they were great.

**What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Since our organization stores a lot of data in the program cloud, Egnyte provides us with a very secure environment. It has been important for improving file and project management, fostering a great perspective to reach our peak performance.

**Reviewed Date:** October 30, 2024

**What do you like best about Egnyte?**

We were hesitant to switch to a cloud-based system as we have a considerable amount of data, however Egnyte has been a fantastic solution for us.

**Reviewed Date:** May 22, 2024

**What do you like best about Egnyte?**

As a reviewer and a heavy user, I gotta say, Egnyte isn't your grandma's cloud storage. It's got all the security features of Fort Knox, but with way less chance of you getting lost in a filing maze.

**What do you dislike about Egnyte?**

Alright, so Egnyte definitely keeps your data safe, maybe a little too safe. Sometimes I feel like I need a decoder ring and a top-secret clearance just to access a spreadsheet

**What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?**

1. File Sharing Chaos: Gone are the days of endless email attachments and confusing version control. Egnyte keeps everything organized and accessible in one secure place. No more hunting down the "final_final_v3_really_final.docx"!

2. Security Nightmares: Data breaches are a constant worry. Egnyte's robust security features give me peace of mind. My files are encrypted, access is controlled, and I can even track who's viewing or editing them.

**Reviewed by:** Aidan  O. | Engineering Consultant / Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2024

  ### 41. Egnyte makes data management super easy

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Justin E. | CEO/President - 360° IT Consulting, Server Management, IT Security, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 20, 2024

**What do you like best about Egnyte?**

Egnyte makes file sharing easy, especially on mixed networks (PC and Mac). The software mounts the drive, making it very easy for users to quickly access their data, including sharing options and working offline.  I'm also very happy with the built-in security features and the additional Secure and Governance tools.

**What do you dislike about Egnyte?**

My major issue with Egnyte is their split support for Macs.  They have the original Egnyte Desktop and a new Egnyte Core app - to deal with some security issues within macOS, however, they keep updating each, and in my experience, you can't have both in the same network.

**What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Egnyte has allowed a lot of my clients to break free of the traditional vpn/fileshare and allow everyone to work from wherever.  Quick access to files on all devices (including iPhones) has supercharged the organizations I'm helping really have quick access to their data and workflows.

  ### 42. Great Experience

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chuck M. | IT Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 02, 2024

**What do you like best about Egnyte?**

Transition to onsite server to Egnyte was easy and painless. I was able to migrate share and permissions without any problems.

**What do you dislike about Egnyte?**

All of the new features seem to be web based only. I have users that insist on using the desktop client because they like the mapped drives.

**What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Able to shut down all of my on prem servers. All of my users can connet to the data now from all over the contry without VPNs.

  ### 43. Informativeness and security in content accessibility

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Endy C. | Enterprise Architect, Manufacturing, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 17, 2024

**What do you like best about Egnyte?**

I like the ability to assign permissions down to the individual file, so only the people I want have access to the data can do so. This flexibility and its strong protection functionalities provide me with comfort about my files and companies’ protection against breaches and other unauthorized actions.

**What do you dislike about Egnyte?**

The mobile app does not look and behave as robust and feature-packed as the desktop version. This makes it difficult to manipulate files especially when working from another room, this is a real set back whenever am out of the office.

**What problems is Egnyte solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Egnyte helps address the ongoing case of where to store information and how to share it without compromising security. This has very much helped in minimizing cases of data breach and has made sure that there is compliance to legal requirements of my organization.s

**Official Response from Kaveri Mekerira:**

There are no "downsides" to using Egnyte. A couple of things we wish would cost more than the plan we are on.

It is a bridge between our graphics and production departments. We share the space.

The mobile application version of the platform is not as smooth, and as extensive as the desktop site. Sharing and accessing big files can be time-consuming, and there is no such thing as search capabilities.
