    Go Anywhere is perfect for moving data between systems. It is great for pulling data and emailing it or sending it to another server. However, Go Anywhere is limited as an ETL tool. It is not good for large datasets. When we had to move millions of rows from one server to another, it totally choked.

    • For an FTP server it is robust but very easy to use and configure.
    • For a project manager for file transfers, it allows you to do nearly anything, from simple file move to file rename, move, zip, and create a new folder location to drop the file in.
    • GoAnywhere has a gateway device that allows for securing the traffic coming from outside your network in without exposing too much of your network.

    • In the beginning, when implementing, it can take a while to understand how it works thoroughly.
    • Due to the added abilities learning to configure the software can take some time.
    • Training for this product will cost extra. The training is also not excellent.
    • The software seems glitchy at times, sometimes being slow or corrupting jobs.

    They would help us to identify the problem and provide a solution every time. Support also will answer questions about what the application can do and how, and it would allow you to submit enhancements requests for consideration to be included in future versions.

    Implementation was straight forward. We paid for 50 hours of professional service in case, we need help. We end using only 10 hours. I have only 1 month to convert over 120 scripts from FTP voyager to goanywhere. Old script was had written using bat files. Some of the batch file were written by some other person, who passed away. Documents for old script was not in details. With the professional service, I was able to convert all script within windows

    At the time we were evaluating a managed file transfer system, we initially looked at Ipswitch. It did not have a web based interface and the overall price was extremely higher than GA MFT. The solutions offered by GA MFT were significantly more attractive for our needs as an organization.

    • GA has made life easier for our employees. Many processes that used to take a lot of time are now automated or semi-automated using GA.
    • GA has helped our IT team be far more productive. It would take weeks to put together code that we can do in GA in a day or less.
