With clients in finance and pharmaceuticals, I needed a cloud storage service that would allow me a certain level of security-compliant controls while still be flexible enough to store, sync, and share files across various devices. For both small businesses or enterprises, the service and product offerings are suitable to address any security concerns. The syncing process and version controls is highly transparent and effective ensuring that all devices have the most up-to-date files and the entitlement controls for team members allows us to control who has access to files (clients or collaborators) with little to no hassle. The companion mobile app allows me to quickly and easily upload files from email to share with others or simply have stored and synced with all devices when needed. Take a serious look at Egnytes service and product offerings. You may be pleasantly surprised.

As an IT consultant that has been using this system for 12 years, it’s undoubtedly one of the most intuitive and exceptional services we use. One of the last companies with a great tech support that responds quickly and effectively. Our team loves it as does our clients. They’ve been way ahead of the game on configurations, management and features though some have caught up but still not as good. Highly recommended Egnyte for a hybrid cloud file system.

Can you PLEASE change the folder/file sorting to remember the last selection for that particular folder? This is how windows file explorer works and the last cloud storage service we used before swapping to Egnyte had this functionality for their mobile app. Currently if you change the sorting to “modified date” it changes the sorting for all folders to be by date, wherever you navigate. I need some folders contents to be sorted by “name” and some by “date”. And it would be very helpful if the app could remember and store the latest sorting selection for the current folder so I don’t have to constantly change this setting back and forth as I navigate different folders.

The Egnyte mobile app makes Review & Approval workflows harder to use than they need to be. When viewing a document, there is no way to see or access the Review & Approval workflow associated with that file, so approvals have to be completed from the Tasks view instead of from the document itself. Since Tasks are organized by workflow title (which is user-defined and often doesn’t match the document name), finding the correct workflow can require scrolling through the list because there is no search function—only sorting and filtering options. It’s also not possible to view the status of a document’s workflow if you are not a participant in that workflow. Linking workflows to the document and adding workflow search would make the mobile experience much more intuitive and efficient.
