It is one of the best ways to share the large files using the secured method for transactions of important and legal documents. Its ease to collaborate with the Dropbox tool gives it a hands on other methods of secured transaction of emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

What do you like best about Kiteworks?

Kiteworks has been in business since 1999 so it is an established name for many years even when they were known as Ascellion. I had a great time experiencing Kiteworks. I liked its clean user interface, trouble-free implementation, and secured file sharing. Their customer support is pretty responsive which makes things convenient in case we require some assistance.

What do you dislike about Kiteworks?

Everything works fine with Kiteworks and I am not having any complaints though I would like some add-ons to make the experience even better. While securely sharing the files. I would want to communicate with the person instantly over chat. If that instant messaging is built in, it would turn the collaboration even smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
