Strategic Accounts Keeper at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
Flexible, good data protection, responsive and knowledgeable technical support
They definitely need to improve their reporting. Their dashboard is good. It can always be improved, but for now, it's really simple: you see what works and what doesn't. However, once you get into the enterprise space, you want to make sure that your dashboard has additional, reporting possibilities. You will want more customization and more options available. Because if you move into the enterprise-class space in the financial industry, they will want to know regulations, where the data is held, and how long the retention periods are by marketing group and per type of data. You want to have hooks into the data types, which Keepit doesn't have now, but I'm sure it will soon.

Flexible plans, stable, and scalable
I used another solution at the same time, which was far worse. The American company I worked for used a similar file-sharing solution called LeapFile, a secure file transfer service. Personally, I found Citrix ShareFile to be much better than LeapFile, which was quite clunky. I later used a solution called Egnyte, which my company used as its main file transfer solution, though I'm not sure if it's still in use. The company moved to Egnyte because it is more of an enterprise-level solution. Egnyte was expensive, but it worked. I believe Citrix ShareFile is aimed at smaller to medium-sized organizations, making it a more appropriate solution than Egnyte due to its pricing.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature of this solution is definitely its pricing point."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is definitely its pricing point. Invoicing is simple. It is one price that includes both licensing and retention requirements, which is rare in today's market. That, I believe, is a significant differentiation for them."
"Citrix has a very good file auditing features and security features."
"The solution is scalable."
"Easy to setup across the enterprise with Active Directory support for better managed security."
"For a few hundred dollars a month, my entire organization (42 users) can effectively share unlimited files with external partners."
"We implement this solution at many customer sites which directly affects productivity and gives the customer a very flexible solution."
"It's user-friendly for end users."
"This provides us with a secure way of sending tax returns without having to use passwords."
"The solution would query the Active Directory, and if new accounts were identified, Citrix ShareFile would add them automatically."
 

Cons

"They definitely need to improve their reporting."
"There are sometimes scalability issues after updates."
"The user interface is not very intuitive."
"Some of our customers are facing issues when sending files outside their company."
"DLP features are lacking and required because, especially with everyone working from home, security is now paramount when the data is on BYOD devices."
"Would like more granular folder ownership administration."
"My only issue with this solution is the cost, which should be improved."
"They should integrate the solution with more email services."
"Reporting features could be better Support could be better; we don't usually need it but I have read a number of complaints from users with more complex implementations (API use, AD integration) that have had issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe the MSRP is around $5 or $6 USD per person, per month, and per seat."
"If you are already a Citrix customer, I recommend having the Platinum licensing level, as it provides licensing for a number of various features that all integrate together."
"I give the cost of the solution a five out of five."
"You have to work hard in order to get the suitable licenses."
"Citrix has a very good file auditing features and security features."
