We performed a comparison between JSCAPE by Redwood and MOVEit based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Managed File Transfer (MFT) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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 easy to transfer large sets of files."
"Triggers are something that is very useful as they automate the use of boilerplate code, and we can define certain functionality of certain tasks also."
"JSCAPE's automation can obliterate manual file transfer processes, salvaging precious time and vanquishing the chances of errors."
"The JSCAPE MFT Server offers support for diverse protocols such as FTP(S), SFTP, SCP, AFTP, OFTP, and TFPT."
"The product's most valuable feature is the high availability clustering."
"It offers audit trails and reporting tools, allowing users to track file transfers, monitor user activities, and produce regulatory compliance reports."
"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."
"MOVEit's best features were the number of options available, like folder creation, and user-friendliness."
"The renaming and timestamp features are great."
"Offers a large collection of very good path planning algorithms."
"The most valuable feature of MOVEit is the upload speed."
"From an administration standpoint, it's very easy to manage, and I feel pretty confident in the security of the product. From an end-user standpoint also, it's very easy."
"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 product's pricing needs improvement."
"The user interface (UI) could be improved."
"The documentation part can be improved to be more precise for beginners to understand the advanced features of the tool."
"Database crashing was seen whenever there was an overload."
"The GUI has to be enhanced."
"The initial setup is time-consuming; it could use a video tutorial."
"The price is too high and the product line is too complex."
"Enhancing the user interface would make it more accessible and appealing to the new users and it will definitely enhance the user experience."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Since I have to monitor two times a day, it would be nice if they have script templates."
"If the transfers are more or the file size is big, it takes more time. It doesn't have much capacity to process multiple files at the same time. It can get stuck or take a lot of time to process the files."
"With the new other vendors coming up, they come up with certain features, in addition to the file transfer. But MOVEit does not develop their product. That's why we are looking out for other solutions."
"At times, we had connection issues with MOVEit, and it had a tendency to reboot without any reason."
