Secure application with efficient features for file transfer management
We use the application to transfer and exchange data files between customers and vendors AMPLIFY has all the essential features for managing file transfer. Sometimes, the application's embedded databases couldn't perform well for a higher volume of data. Thus, legacy licensing for these…
Joshua Rule - PeerSpot reviewer
Serves as a straightforward SFTP server that offers reasonably good support
I think some of the automated deployment features could use some assistance, which is an area where it currently lacks. The product needs some ability to help it with the deployment model, which is a little difficult. Some support for the area revolving around PGP protocols in the product would be helpful. I think TIBCO could try to integrate better with API management software. TIBCO is a fairly solid product, but integration with some API management software should provide a better selling point since TIBCO would have some great API management capabilities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"AMPLIFY has all the essential features for managing file transfer."
"It provides a good amount of storage capacity for a reasonable price and has a good range of connectors."
"It’s very flexible."
"It makes a logical link between the inbound/outbound transfer, and makes it clearly visible. This is a very important feature for managing transfer with different environments, and it's very helpful in case of troubleshooting."
"Axway consolidated all of our communications into one platform, simplifying network and port management. Now, all we have to do is open one port to this application, and we can remove all the firewall rules on that port. It's much more straightforward to manage from a security perspective. We used to rely on an archaic FTP solution, but Axway features SFTP, so it was an improvement security-wise."
"The product's initial setup phase is pretty straightforward."
"The product is simple for encrypting data transfer of all the assets in our system."
"It is an easy-to-use and stable product."
"TIBCO has its own integration tool."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ability to do centralized administration."
"They have great multi-factor authentication for extra security."
 

Cons

"The areas in need of improvement are the monitoring and the cut-off management, when needed. Today you have at least two solutions: Buy the other Axway suite, Sentinel, or integrate it into your monitoring system."
"The tool can try to make it a little bit more flexible so that we can easily invoke the APIs, and in such a way, it can be made a little bit better."
"We only hope that they continue to keep updating the solution and improving the offering. They could always do more updates and releases."
"The initial setup was quite complex."
"Their monitoring is not up to the mark and needs improvement."
"It is complicated to manage multi-operations, particularly in handling file name changes within file transcripts."
"Sometimes, the application's embedded databases couldn't perform well for a higher volume of data."
"Improvement in Data Encoding would be very appreciated (I'm thinking of ASCII-EBCDIC, ASCII-ASCII, etc.)."
"I think some of the automated deployment features could use some assistance, which is an area where it currently lacks. The product needs some ability to help it with the deployment model, which is a little difficult."
"The UI could be better."
"Their cloud product is not yet stable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The platform's price aligns with the market."
"It is quite expensive, and because of that, we get good service from them in return for the price paid."
"AMPLIFY's license is a one-time investment."
"Pricing and licensing is related to the protocols you choose to support."
"The price is very good for the complexity that the tool provides."
