I really like Egnyte's simplicity. All users in my team were able to access it with minimal training, which is great. Everyone appreciates that they don't need to use a VPN or a virtual desktop infrastructure to access department files, making it really convenient and helpful.

Migration was a little hard because it's not import one to one. It's not supporting some special characters for folders and doesn't allow some characters in file names. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our engineering firm shopped around for live file storage solutions that suited our needs, and were disappointed to find that either they didn't completely fit our use case, or were far too expensive for the services offered. When we were recommended Egnyte, we immediately liked their flexible plans, reasonable price, and useful built-in tools. The staff were very helpful in finding a solution that fit our needs, and even assisted with our file transfer, which integrated very smoothly with our existing workflow. Our first year with them has been absolutely amazing. Their platform is reliable day after day, does exactly what we need it to do, and the slight hiccups we have had were quickly taken care of by their excellent support staff.

Do expect to receive marketing emails about new features and plan upgrades. So far none of them have been necessary for our workflow, but I do appreciate receiving a heads up about their new offerings, in case one piques our interest in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Egnyte does a great job governing our data in the cloud. It is easy to use and implement. Their migration team did a fantastic job of ensuring all our data was uploaded and ready to use once we officially changed over from our local server to Egnyte. The desktop interface is easy to use, and their service offerings helped us consolidate other services we were using into one place (such as Dropbox, Hightail, and Log-Me-In). They have options to co-edit O365 files, which is fantastic. And sharing files out of office is a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Egnyte has some growing to do still. We've found that it doesn't always handle file locks as anticipated and intense O365 file sharing (such as a large data heavy Excel file) isn't handled quite as seamlessly as it is in SharePoint. One other disappointment is that you can't run exe files that are stored in Egnyte. We're told that this is for security purposes which makes sense, but it really hampers our ability to push out software deployments, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We've been onboarded to Egnyte for about 5 months and I can tell you that my CSM and AE are top notch- in my top 2 SaaS provider experiences (maybe #1? we will see!)

Egnyte is also demonstrating intriging AI features that go beyond the typical "CoPilot" bolt ons. I didn't move to Egnyte for their new and upcoming AI functionalities, however I can communicate that we are already incorporating these AI features into our roadmap.

Migrating data to Egnyte can be quite a large undertaking, and while their professional services team is extremely knowledgeable and was very available for unscheduled contact, the Egnyte platform can be overwhelming for small teams. It is important, especially, to have a full understanding of the Secure & Govern functionalities. Training on S&G may need to be reinforced with scheduled follow up calls and even several reviews of the individual tenants S&G alerts with a one on one walkthrough on managing.

Egnyte's user interface is very intuitive and while it is easy to use, it also contains robust preferences and settings that allow for unique user roles and privileges. The initial set up process and transition was extremely easy and quick, almost unbelievably so which gave us a massive confidence boost in the product itself. The customer service team was able to answer all the questions we had, technical and otherwise, and assisted in the setup and were continually available throughout implementation and after! Sharing, locking, and co-editing files is easy and works extraordinarily well. If you open a file someone else is in, for instance, a popup appears not only telling you that the file is locked and read-only, but tells you which user is currently working in that file! It was extremely easy to integrate our workflow with the Egnyte system and the additional features that Egnyte has over other cloud server systems was just a cherry on top.

Occasionally we have experienced server slowdowns, but this has not happened often and seem to resolve themselves quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Egnyte is a powerful and versatile platform for secure file storage, sharing, and collaboration. Its hybrid cloud capabilities make it especially valuable for organizations with both on-premise and remote work needs, allowing seamless access to files without sacrificing speed or security. The interface is clean and intuitive, making it easy for end users to navigate, while IT teams benefit from granular permission controls, robust auditing, and strong compliance features (HIPAA, GDPR, etc.).

Performance is strong for both local and remote access, and integration with Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and other third-party apps is smooth. Mobile access is also reliable, enabling productivity on the go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Slightly higher learning curve for admins.

In my industry linked files from local servers need to be relinked

Pricing may be steep for very small teams(I recommend you have 25+ end users before considering) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very easy to use and is one of the best cloud-based storage platforms. Integration with apps like office 365, google workspaces, etc. is super simple and seamless. It is simple to implement and also, they have a good customer support team to help out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using it frequently for the past 1 year and have no dislikes to share. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

New interface and new option. New graphic very very good search engine Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Maybe best co working space interface. Maybe a new uploading file interface.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The "Ask a Document" AI feature has been a huge time-saver for me—I can query long PDFs without reading the whole thing. I also really appreciate how stable the Co-editing with Microsoft 365 has become; it feels much more native now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the offline sync has improved, I’d still love to see more granular control over which sub-folders stay synced on the desktop app without having to select the whole parent folder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Egnyte because it's easy to update software, which makes my tasks faster and reduces my dependence on IT. We use it for everything, including cloud file storage. I really appreciate these features, and they make Egnyte valuable to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd like it if using Egnyte required less dependency on IT, especially when updating software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
