13 Feb 2025

A great way to learn about the value of a Managed File Transfer (MFT) solution is to hear from those who use one.


Fortra have published a useful eBook “MFT's Role in Business: IT Leaders Weigh In” in which nine IT and security professionals share their experiences using Fortra’s GoAnywhere MFT.

MFT in Action

MFT enables organisations to transfer large quantities and sizes of files securely and quickly, every time. It:


·         leverages secure file transfer protocols;

·         encrypts file transfers; and

·         employs authentication and authorisation to their recipients safely.


However, as the class-leading MFT, GoAnywhere MFT goes several steps further. It turbo-charges your organisation’s efficiency by replacing repetitive, manual processes with centralised, automated, and fully-compliant ones.


Unsafe legacy scripts can be replaced with automated workflows. Files transfer securely, when and where you say, and without a team of people spending valuable resources - every time - to ensure it happens.


Large files can be sent quickly. GoAnywhere’s built-in transfer technologies accelerate file transfers at speeds up to 10Gbps - hundreds of times faster than typical FTP.  And it achieves that even in environments experiencing packet loss or latency.


GoAnywhere also features bundles for threat protection and secure collaboration. You can secure all incoming files against malware, encrypt all outgoing files, and even control access permissions once they’ve left your network.


Encryption and compliance are further benefits. Files stay safe at rest and in motion, which builds trust and credibility across supply chain partners.


With so much data transfer occurring in cloud environments, GoAnywhere MFT deploys on AWS, Microsoft Azure, and other cloud computing platforms to give you the same level of coverage no matter where you keep – or send – your data.


Leveraging MFT

As the experts explain in the eBook, organisations can scale their use of GoAnywhere’s features and technologies, starting with the basics and then exploring and expanding the solution’s more advanced features to supplant operations traditionally performed by specialised middleware.


From integrating with web services to drive automation, to customising unique solutions complete with bespoke emails, nearly any file transfer capability is possible.

If you’re wondering “could an MFT do that?”, this eBook may well have the answer.  And with GoAnywhere MFT, that answer most often is “Yes!”
