It just works
It handles all of our of file transfer traffic between 5 facilities
Pros
You can set this software up and really just forget about it. It's one of those rare pieces of mission critical software that you almost forget you have
Cons
Some of the advanced features are not documented really well but their customer support is outstanding

Best bang for the buck
Overall good experience. For the most part, it has been set it and forget it with no issues.
Pros
I like the built in redundancy features.
Cons
The interface could use some improvement. It doesn’t scale well when resizing the console window.

When I took over the data ingest process, this software was the cheapest that still had allthe features we required.

Jscape 12
Uploading files to Azure was a good exercise.
Pros
Jscape 12 has new function to upload files to Azure. This is a plus. The 'copy' function for the triggers.
Cons
The workflow in the canvas is rather confusing with each step as success and failure. The admin guide not detail enough for the canvas and triggers functions.

Very good experience with it, thrilled for some of the features
We are using it to provide file transfer services for different business domains, totaling around accounts. The business domains run on different TCP ports, and each is administer as self-service, by their respective owners. Some settings are managed by us (central admins), some by the domain owners.
Pros
Features that do not exist in other similar products or which are better implemented than in others. Ease of administration. Separation of domains in a micro-service like architecture, each being self-service. High-availability support. Supports different protocols: FTP(S), SFTP, SCP,AFTP, OFTP, TFPT, HTTP/S. JScape even created their own client, and has a nice WEB UI for clients, and a nice separate one for administrators. Also, very configurable, a lot of things to toy with. Ad-Hoc transfers.
Cons
Sometimes support resolutions take a little bit too long for my personal liking. But the problems (which have been till now minor) get resolved, and we have full transparency from JScape. Also, when deployed in the cloud on separate nodes, we have found out that the WEB UI was showing only the domain logs from the local server.
Reasons for choosing MFT Server
Better HA support, more protocols supported, better UI.
Reasons for switching to MFT Server
The old solution was unable to work correctly in a HA environment, harder to administer, no good WEB interface for users, unable to separate business domains, no self-service.

Stress free way to send/ receive encrypted data
The managed file transfer server has been of great service where we needed a solution to transfer data from a local systems in a secure way.
Pros
I like that the send and receive process is automated in the background as long as there is an active internet connection and the configuration is set correctly. Using the Managed File Transfer is so easy users don't even see they are using such a powerful service. I also like the persistent attempts to successful sync after failure
Cons
The complexities of server configurations could be improved by out of box settings. In the event of failure it would be good to see the alerts so prominently instead of having to go back-end to see what is happening
Reasons for choosing MFT Server
Its easy to use and affordable

jscape user
It does what it's supposed to but it's difficult to wrangle. I'm constantly looking for other software but jscape is the only one that can do what we need for inbound and outbound sftp connections.
Pros
When there are no errors, the software works.
Cons
- API is difficult to use and limited - Configuration is almost impossible to store in code - Both of those reasons make it so that we cannot set up a deployment pipeline for jscape - Connection errors, server errors are cryptic - Regex matching does not adhere to standards which makes writing it very hard - HA solution is based on a failover model and is not robust. Would really like load balancing features - Documentation is limited

Fairly straight forward use.
Overall it has been a good experience. No real big issues. Would be nice if the logging was better.
Pros
Fairly easy to use. Lots of tools to configure the system the way you want it. Being able to have it encrypt on the fly was a must. Being able to attach different keys to different folders is very helpful.
Cons
A little complicated as well. Sometimes settings can be hard to find/configure.
Reasons for choosing MFT Server
Not sure, was selected and installed before I arrived.

File transfer software worth looking at
Pros
The set-up at the beginning might be challenging, but overall experience is quite good.
Cons
Software itself is good, but support response time is ... not the best on the market. You can sometime wait days to get any response, their phone support is same - lack of contact.

A server software that needs hours of downtime to do a maintenance : just not acceptable
Not what I expected.
Pros
Support all FTP flavours and detects the end of the transfer
Cons
Bad error handling, need to script as triggers aren't enough (no constructions like if/then/else nor correct retries). But the ugliest is that we've a DB which is now above 6GB, and the only answer I get is "try this" with instructions to stop, and wait potentianny for hours before the maintenance is done. If I knew that before, I would never buy this software.
Reasons for choosing MFT Server
Hope that triggers were effective: I was wrong.
Reasons for switching to MFT Server
I regret: I expect to go back to proftpd with extensions for SFTP and FTP over TLS. Thos extensions were not completely available at the time we choose JScape.
