"Secure, Reliable Access for Hybrid Teams"
5/5
What do you like best about Egnyte?

I really like how Egnyte serves as our virtual drive. It allows access to our entire database from anywhere, which is crucial since we work in a hybrid office environment. It's easy to use and provides a secure way for us to share and receive documents with clients. Egnyte's redundancy is invaluable as it allows us to work uninterrupted during local server outages or problems with our technology provider. I appreciate how Egnyte operates smoothly between my desktop at work, my laptop at home, and my phone when I'm on the go. It's also been incredibly reliable, so much so that we haven't needed to access our local server once since adopting it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

This last update has moved the menu to an unfamiliar location and it has been hard for us to find the actions we normally use, such as sending secure upload links for secure client document sharing. Perhaps you already provide this, but if we could have a chat box where we can ask things like 'Where can I find the Secure Upload link icon?' that would be helpful.

We appreciate your feedback on the recent menu changes and understand how that can impact daily workflow. Our team will get in touch with you shortly. Appreciate your patience.

"Effortless Document Sharing with Quick Setup"
5/5
What do you like best about Egnyte?

I like how Egnyte makes accessing and sharing documents seamless with my peers and subcontractors. It efficiently handles sharing documents with large file sizes quickly. The ease of accessing files on a local server or over the internet is very convenient, and the sharing function works well. I also enjoy being able to see when shared links are accessed, allowing me to ensure that subcontractors view documents ahead of time and meet deadlines. Egnyte simplifies collaboration with my peers, making it really easy. I appreciate the initial setup, as it was quite simple—just logging in made it functional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

Sometimes when I first log in to my computer, it takes a couple of minutes for the drive to be accessible. Sometimes file names are too long, but after a simple rename, it's usually fixed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kaveri Mekerira of Egnyte

Thank you! We’re glad Egnyte makes sharing and accessing files easy and helps your team stay on schedule. We appreciate your feedback on login times and long file names.

"Efficient File Sharing, Needs Better Automation"
4/5
What do you like best about Egnyte?

I like how Egnyte allows me to share large files with my company colleagues without any size limit. I appreciate the co-edit feature, where multiple users can access and edit at the same time, which saves me more time that would otherwise be spent consolidating input from different users. The initial setup of Egnyte was also quite easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

I tried to automate some tasks with Power Automate, but I think the integration could be improved like OneDrive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable Cloud Storage, Exceptional Versioning"
5/5
What do you like best about Egnyte?

I find Egnyte incredibly useful for managing project files at work because it allows us to save everything to the cloud seamlessly with its desktop connector. This way, I never have to worry about losing my files due to any issues with my computer. I am particularly impressed by Egnyte's capability to save multiple versions of a file, which is a unique feature I haven't seen in other software. This has saved my company time on numerous occasions by allowing me to easily revert to previous versions of a document if needed. The seamless access across multiple devices, whether from a personal computer or a mobile phone, is another aspect I love as it ensures I'm always connected and can access everything on the go. Additionally, the setup process was straightforward and user-friendly. I appreciated the Egnyte Academy, which provided a valuable and efficient overview of the software, helping me discover features I might have otherwise missed. Overall, Egnyte is my favorite file management software because of its intuitive setup, stellar functionality, and the peace of mind it offers due to its robust cloud-based storage solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

I have a minor annoyance with Egnyte where I have to reauthorize it after a browser system update. This issue seems to arise because Egnyte might be primarily designed for PCs, while I use a Mac. Fortunately, this inconvenience only occurs once every month or two. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Document Management with Minor Mobile Hurdles"
5/5
What do you like best about Egnyte?

I find Egnyte very easy to use, especially for downloading documents and sharing large files. It's a breeze to store all documents related to the claims process and share them effortlessly with the insurance company and attorney. I like that sending a file link is very user-friendly. The ease of setup and use makes it a great choice for my business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Egnyte?

On occasion, changing the name of a file on the iPhone doesn't work. When I upload files to Egnyte and have to change the name of the folder, it doesn't let me do that. I have to wait until I get on my desktop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
