Find out what your peers are saying about Dropbox, Box, Microsoft and others in Content Collaboration Platforms."It is scalable and stable."
"From a small firm perspective, Egnyte Connect is simple, it is easy to get users up and running the same day, and I have nothing negative to say about the software. I can't speak to how Egnyte Connect would operate in a midsize company or even a large Fortune 500 company, but, from our perspective as a small business, it is fantastic."
"It's easy to move files around, even to, for example, SharePoint."
"It provides a way to granularly choose which folders from the internet you want to sync to your computer. It is really useful for people who are working on teams that are working with files that are frequently changing. You can go in and pretty clearly see what changes have been made. It gives you a constant feed."
"Egnyte Connect is a great application to save files."
"It is a good storage solution."
"You can really do a lot of cool things with it in terms of being able to co-author and share documents with users that are not in your organization."
"The most valuable features are Pub/Sub, Data Explorer, BigQuery, and Data Transfer."
"The combination of Firebase features, including storage, the Firebase database, and authentication, has been the most valuable. Firebase offers Google authentication, which is convenient for our needs. Additionally, Firebase provides email authentication and Gmail authentication, which are easy to set up and integrate into our applications."
"One of the most valuable features of the solution is its ease of use."
"The most valuable feature of Google Cloud Storage is the filter option. You can search with some artificial intelligence kinds of features. For example, if I search for a beach, it'll show me all the beach-related pictures, which I took five or ten years before. So this is a cool feature that I've seen. They give as many features as they can to make it better, so I'm happy with this solution."
"The solution is scalable."
"Google Cloud Storage includes Docs, calendar, Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Meet."
"It's easy to use."
"It is flexible and simple to use."
"You cannot delete a file when you have uploaded it in error."
"Before, when we were starting to use Egnyte, we were struggling with a lot of bugs with Egnyte desktop sync."
"If this solution had a better ability to search, that would be helpful. In addition, if there was an ability to collaborate, that would also be a benefit. At present, the vision control is had because if someone gets out of it, it locks. And, whoever saves last overrides everyone's work."
"The issue of my authorization token expiring pretty quickly was pretty annoying. On pretty much every update, it would expire on every computer. On every computer update, at the first opportunity, it would expire. When my computer got updated or the authorization got cut, my saved drives would get messed up. So, I had to reconnect them all. I was never able to set up a useful drive system with my local computer with Egnyte Connect. It would be a big improvement if there was a cached system so that when it loses connection, it can still save what kind of connections were set up, and when it reconnects, it repopulates all those. I don't know if that's even possible, but that's the feature I'd want."
"As of right now, I have everything that I and my team need."
"It would be nice to see an integration of using an active directory to validate and authenticate users on our end as well as on the client user's end."
"In the next release, if improvements are made to the GPU instances for machine learning, for example, it would be helpful."
"The user interface could be more intuitive."
"I'd like the solution to integrate better with other clouds, including the Apple cloud."
"The solution is good, however, it would benefit from increased storage without the additional cost."
"There are inefficiencies with cache when the names are sequencing."
"The solution should improve its security and accountability."
"I would also like to be able to use my own tools and packages within this solution and also have a tool to visualize the data with graphics."
"I don't find the solution very user-friendly."
