"Simpler than Sharepoint..."

5/5

What do you like best about Egnyte?

I find it easier to assist users with account management. The simplicity of setting up a new user account or making changes makes my work flow a breeze! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

I have no complaints as an administrator at this time. Most of the problems I have encountered within Egnyte are due to user error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

File sharing and management for users in the company is simple. Instead of having to fiddle with the desktop software, like most other cloud file providers, we simply sign into Egnyte Desktop app and connect the drives that are needed. This saves so much time in my day to day. I do not have to restart an app, or a computer, just to get the files to work properly, they just work! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I think Egnyte is a very good product to offer my clients and potential clients—an excellent tool."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Egnyte?

I like how easy it is to upload and download files, as well as the option to protect them with a password so that not just anyone with the link can access them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

Sometimes, when I need to upload large files, the platform presents difficulties and sometimes the upload is even canceled. However, I understand that this can happen due to the size of the files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless and Easy File Sharing and Collaboration"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Egnyte?

Everyone really is loving how easy it is to access files when not in the office. Being able to access files without VPN, or pulling up pdfs through the mobile app has been mentioned a lot. Being able to continue using the same network drives/windows explorer with other users has been great. Ease of sharing files has also been good, no longer dealing with onedrive or sharepoint for sharing files or to have in-office collaboration has been amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

Since everything is cloud based there can be some delays when navigating around folders, we have heard some gripes about that. Smart Cache has also been helpful but has caused some issues as well, Egnyte engineers helped us with one major issue which was good. Hopefully Smart Cache can continue to be developed so small issues are resolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We've always heard complaints about file sharing - Onedrive and Sharepoint permissions can be finicky or a hassle for clients and consultants. With Egnyte, file sharing is pretty easy for users to do and no worries about Microsoft permissions or changes.

We've also always heard about data sprawl, we often want to collaborate on Word and Excel files together and to do that users would have to have a Teams and share that way, or what would most often happen is someone would share from there OneDrive. This caused issues where sometimes people don't know where the file is, who shared it, if someone leaves the company OneDrive files disappeared. This lets us keep all of our files on our own network drives making it much easier for everyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Secure and Reliable File Sharing Made Simple"

5/5

What do you like best about Egnyte?

Egnyte makes it easy to securely store, access, and share files. The platform is user-friendly, integrates well with other tools, and the permission controls give me confidence when working with sensitive information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

Syncing large files can be slow at times, and the desktop app can use a lot of resources. Some advanced features take time to learn, and the cost may be high for smaller teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to setup and easy to use storage!"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Egnyte?

My team was struggling with older server architecture and needed a cloud based solution. I'm not 100% sure this is cloud based but it did fix the issue for us completely. No longer need to log into a VPN at home, and our file management is much improved (i.e. we can co-work on spreadsheets now). What I like best is how naturally it integrates with Office Suite and File explorer. While we are still working on migrating our files, the ones we host with Egnyte are easy to access and easy to edit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

It's a little unclear how their file / item limits work and we had to get a lot of questions answered before we felt it would be up to the task (we have a lot of files and items in our database). So far it's been up to the task and we haven't run into any limits, though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Before Egnyte we would have to log into a VPN and connect to our server via a few clicks. If your PC goes to sleep or you move, you have to re-login. For many people on our team this presented workflow issues and prevented co-editing. We moved our file infrastructure to egnyte to solve these issues and so far so good.

"Enhancing A/E/C Collaboration with the Power of Egnyte"

Enhancing A/E/C Collaboration with the Power of Egnyte: Game-Changer for Design & Construction Workflows

As an architecture and design firm working on multiple complex projects across different states and with diverse consultant teams, we needed a secure, scalable, and AEC-friendly platform for file sharing, version control, and collaboration.

Key Strengths for A/E/C Firms

Robust File Sharing & Access Control

Egnyte’s granular permission settings allow secure sharing of drawings, specs, and BIM files with clients, consultants, and contractors.

Seamless access to large Revit, CAD, and PDF files without performance issues.

AEC-Specific Integrations

Integrates with Autodesk tools (e.g., Revit, AutoCAD, BIM 360), Bluebeam, Procore, and Microsoft 365 — making file management intuitive and efficient.

Reduces workflow friction across platforms commonly used in design and construction.

Version Control & Audit Trails

Helps manage drawing revisions and transmittals with robust version history.

Maintains a clear record of access and edits, supporting QA/QC and legal defensibility.

Data Security & Compliance

Provides enterprise-grade security, encryption, and compliance with industry standards (e.g., SOC 2, ISO).

Ideal for handling sensitive project data, RFPs, and client contracts.

Mobile Access & Field Use

Access files on-site via mobile devices or tablets with offline sync options — ideal for contractors, field engineers, and punch list reviews.

Streamlines communication between office and field teams.

Business Impact

Improved collaboration efficiency with remote consultants and clients.

Reduced risk of file loss or confusion over outdated drawings.

Enabled faster project delivery and improved team accountability.

Summary / Recommendation

Egnyte has become a critical platform in our digital toolset, providing secure, efficient, and AEC-friendly file management that scales with our growing project demands. We highly recommend it for design firms, engineers, and contractors looking to streamline workflows, protect data, and collaborate more effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

While Egnyte has been a strong performer for our A/E/C workflows, there are a few areas that could benefit from continued refinement. The user interface, while functional, could be more intuitive for new team members who are less tech-savvy. Occasionally, syncing large BIM files or navigating folder structures can feel slower than ideal, especially in bandwidth-limited environments. That said, these are relatively minor and have been improving with each update. Egnyte’s customer support has been responsive whenever we’ve had questions or needed assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

As a growing architecture studio licensed in multiple states, Egnyte has solved one of our biggest operational challenges: securely managing and sharing large design files across remote teams, consultants, and clients. We work on fast-paced projects that require real-time collaboration — whether it's coordinating Revit models, sharing shop drawings, or issuing updated PDFs during construction. Egnyte allows us to do this seamlessly, without worrying about file version conflicts or data security.

It’s also helped us streamline compliance across jurisdictions by providing secure access controls and audit trails, which is essential when working with public agencies or on sensitive community projects. For a lean team like ours, Egnyte reduces IT overhead, keeps us agile, and lets us focus on design and client service — not tech troubleshooting. Ultimately, it's helped us work smarter, stay organized, and maintain the high level of professionalism our clients expect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Through the integration with Outlook it's given us the ability to send download links with an email, this saves us precious time from having to send multiple emails to send large volumes of emails with their attachments to all parties on a given project or neededing to use a third party app to accomplish this same task.
