"The speed of transferring large datasets is super quick, which allows us to work on multiple tasks at a time."
"We receive customized email notifications and alerts regarding user activities and the number of login attempts."
"It is platform-independent and can flawlessly work on any operating system using the latest security standards."
"One of the standout features of this particular tool is its automation capabilities."
"It helped in confidentially transferring files with a vast number of servers available with no external applications required."
"It is a reliable and easy-to-operate platform for secure file transfers."
"I admire its ability to transfer really large files. One of the files that we transferred was 70 gigs. We didn't try anything larger than that, but so far, whenever somebody came to us to process a really large file, we were able to do it successfully. It can handle large files. That is one thing that I like about Automation."
"The automation is generally very simple that helps with operational efficiency. Since we mainly created interfaces and scheduled transfers, the tool itself handled the file transfer automation."
"Offers a large collection of very good path planning algorithms."
"The most valuable feature of MOVEit is the upload speed."
"Especially at the time of monitoring, it's a nice way to take a look at the script and take a look at run time, which gives enough information for the files that are getting picked or not."
"The log findings and troubleshooting on MOVEit are pretty easy. When you go to the logs, it clearly tells you what time a transfer happened, what time it failed, what is the source path, what is the destination path, and what is the failure reason. It's pretty straightforward."
"The renaming and timestamp features are great."
"It satisfies our requirements but they don't do new improvements as per the market."
"Iteratively enhancing the user interface could help with streamlining workflows to make them more intuitive and user-friendly."
"The documentation part can be improved to be more precise for beginners to understand the advanced features of the tool."
"The FTP/S and ad-hoc techniques can further be automated."
"The initial setup and configuration are time-consuming."
"Support for more complicated workflows, such as conditional logic or branching, could be added to allow users to create more advanced automation processes."
"Setup is time-consuming."
"Improving the error handling feature can help users to identify and resolve issues more quickly and efficiently."
"The GUI has to be enhanced."
"In future releases, MOVEit could add support for some additional protocols. For example, I don't think they supported the SFTP or FTPS protocols at the time."
"Communication can be improved between the product owners and users."
"We have had some challenges. Earlier when we were setting it up, a component called gateway, which runs in the DMV, was not working as expected. It was going down very often. That means most of our vendors were not able to connect using SFTP because that service was down. We had to put in a lot of monitoring to make sure if that goes down, there is some visibility instantaneously so that our system admins can go and do a restart."
"The initial setup is a bit difficult."
"At times, we had connection issues with MOVEit, and it had a tendency to reboot without any reason."
"It takes some time to learn and understand how the solution functions."
"It would be beneficial to include a feature that allows you to hide items and not be locked out if someone has made too many password attempts."
"Something that I would like to see is better upgrade support. We had looked at getting help with an upgrade, and to do it after hours, it was going to be $6,000. It only takes 15 minutes to do. It'd be nice if the after-hour support was a little more reasonable."
