"The renaming and timestamp features are great."
"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."
"It satisfies our requirements but they don't do new improvements as per the market."
"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 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."
"The most valuable feature of MOVEit is the upload speed."
"Offers a large collection of very good path planning algorithms."
"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."
"The product's pricing needs improvement."
"Enhancing the user interface would make it more accessible and appealing to the new users and it will definitely enhance the user experience."

"The initial setup is a bit hectic during the installation."
"Setup is time-consuming."
"The GUI has to be enhanced."
"Iteratively enhancing the user interface could help with streamlining workflows to make them more intuitive and user-friendly."
"The user interface (UI) could be improved."
"In future releases, MOVEit could add support for some additional protocols. For example, I don't think they supported the SFTP or FTPS protocols at the time."
"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."
"At times, we had connection issues with MOVEit, and it had a tendency to reboot without any reason."
"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."
"The initial setup is a bit difficult."
"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."
"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."
