Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The user-friendly interface has made it easy for fresh users to adopt it.""It helped in confidentially transferring files with a vast number of servers available with no external applications required.""The speed of transferring large datasets is super quick, which allows us to work on multiple tasks at a time.""One of the standout features of this particular tool is its automation capabilities.""JSCAPE's automation can obliterate manual file transfer processes, salvaging precious time and vanquishing the chances of errors.""We can send the data quickly and securely.""The JSCAPE MFT Server offers support for diverse protocols such as FTP(S), SFTP, SCP, AFTP, OFTP, and TFPT.""It is platform-independent and can flawlessly work on any operating system using the latest security standards."

"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.""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.""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 renaming and timestamp features are great.""MOVEit's best features were the number of options available, like folder creation, and user-friendliness.""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.""Offers a large collection of very good path planning algorithms.""The convenience of renaming files and using time stamps to segregate them has been very valuable."

Cons
"The initial setup and configuration are time-consuming.""Improving the error handling feature can help users to identify and resolve issues more quickly and efficiently.""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.""The product's pricing needs improvement.""The initial setup is a bit hectic during the installation.""Support for more complicated workflows, such as conditional logic or branching, could be added to allow users to create more advanced automation processes.""The user interface (UI) could be improved."

More JSCAPE by Redwood Cons →

"The initial setup is a bit difficult.""It takes some time to learn and understand how the solution functions.""At times, we had connection issues with MOVEit, and it had a tendency to reboot without any reason.""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.""Communication can be improved between the product owners and users.""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.""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.""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."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The software is expensive compared to other vendors."
  • More JSCAPE by Redwood Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "I haven't really priced out many other products like this, but I feel it's reasonable. Their upgrade support after hours was going to be $6,000. I just made the decision to wing it and just do it during business hours and call support if there was a problem."
  • "When compared to other products I've used, I believe MoveIt is worth the money someone might pay to use it."
  • "Technical support is only available with a paid license."
  • "It's cost-effective."
