Find out what your peers are saying about Progress Software, BMC, IBM and others in Managed File Transfer (MFT)."What I like best about BMC Control-M Managed File Transfer is that it makes transfers more secure and faster. It has a recovery feature during failed file transfers."
"It saves a lot of time for maintenance."
"Dashboard and recovery are the features I found most valuable in the solution."
"The GUI is good if I'm comparing it to other scheduling products."
"This solution has a vast amount of features and with every new release, there are lots of new features introduced. The application has high availability—we have multiple customers and it's highly available. On an application level, if something goes down with the primary, then the application goes over to the secondary, so it's very, very easy to do disaster recovery. From an application integration point of view, it has a lot of APIs, rich APIs. Every month, they are releasing new APIs and new updates, like Java, but more than that. Now they are introducing a couple more APIs, which you can use to integrate your controlling environment with any applications you want."
"The scalability of this solution is very good. The current solution is used wide spread in my company, but I don't have any plans to expand."
"There's another feature called Workload Archiving, where the data for all the jobs can be stored for however many days that we want, which is very useful for any historical analytics."
"It has a nice dashboard for loading up the file transfers, so it's easy to follow the success or failure rates of the operations."
"the security level is very high. After we tested it and checked all the security aspects of the product, we found that it's highly secure."
"If you want a very flexible system that you can easily integrate, and develop interfaces for it or plug-ins to other application environments, it's probably the most flexible"
"It's easy to use over the web. A user who is not in the office can use it and securely insert files."
"Safe-T is very good for users because it has plug-in for Outlook."
"The solution lacks a graphical user interface for reporting."
"We'd like it to be easier to maintain the administrative side."
"One can opt for either a job-based license or a job execution-based license, which sometimes can be troublesome. If the job count exceeds a limit, you may need to procure additional licenses from BMC."
"Password vaulting would be a feature that should be included."
"This solution could be improved by making it possible to better control GUI when interfacing with other systems."
"I believe that the API should be upgraded with security control from the DM. There is Currently no security for the app API solution."
"The solution should improve the out-of-the box conversion tool for migrations so the percentage result isn't so low."
"Scalability is something that needs to be improved."
"The Outlook agent is not working well for installing it in the entire office."
"One important thing that we haven't found in this product is the ability to provide a read-only view for documents. Also, the ability for the customer to add annotations to these documents."
