Pros
"The solution offers good data recovery.""The solution has helped with collaboration in our organization.""Being able to have the S3 files as storage is most valuable. We can use S3 as storage instead of an SFTP server or a machine."

Cons
"Could be more automated, particularly for file transfers.""The tool's UI should be pretty easy and straightforward. I would also like to see a simple audit report of the SFTP guest account that shows the amount of data transfers and security kind enabled.""Its cost needs improvement. In addition, there could be a universal client that works on all desktops."

"The user interface (UI) could be improved.""Database crashing was seen whenever there was an overload.""With constant software releases and updates, detailed notifications and documentation on the improvements along with the comparison of the past and present features would be helpful to understand and use it better.""Improving the error handling feature can help users to identify and resolve issues more quickly and efficiently.""Setup is time-consuming.""The FTP/S and ad-hoc techniques can further be automated.""The initial setup is time-consuming; it could use a video tutorial.""The cost of the tool is relatively high and can pose a problem to medium and small-scale companies who are trying to overcome their on-premise server limitations."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It's $249 per month per instance. It's not great; it's pretty pricey. We've got multiple users on that one instance. If we had to build it by hand, we would win on cost there, but obviously, there is effort and time. In terms of the additional costs, they do have some specific pricing, but for our use case, we don't end up going over $249. They do specify in their pricing what they're charging for."
