Fast, secure, and easy to automate
Pros and Cons
  • "It is easy to transfer large sets of files."
  • "The JSCAPE team could create detailed documents or blogs on how to troubleshoot certain errors that come over in integration with existing environment tools."

What is our primary use case?

Our project is a security monitoring project whose client is the government entity of Japan. We are supposed to handle very confidential files that need to be protected in storage as well as transfer. 

Before the use of JSCAPE, we used to transfer files over mail or upload the files in SharePoint for anyone to access. 

JSCAPE is a faster and very secure file transfer software that was very easy to implement with our existing security tools. 

Using JSCAPE we have automated the file transfer (i.e. critical import files which are transferred on a daily basis at the end of the working day either from the customer to us or vice versa). 

How has it helped my organization?

Being a cybersecurity analyst I believe security should be the priority of each and every file transfer application. JSCAPE is a secured file transfer application that is fast, and efficient, and also lets us automate tasks providing us with a hassle-free environment. 

This has reduced the time that the associates had to manually transfer huge files on a daily basis as well as this is faster than other file-transferring software and since it is automated there is no scope for error. 

Now associates can concentrate on critically more important tasks rather than performing repetitive task on a daily basis. 

What is most valuable?

Being able to transfer huge files that would take a large amount of time to transfer in a few minutes is really an impressive feature. It is easy to transfer large sets of files. 

Another valuable feature is automation. If you are able to automate the file transfer of large files in a secure manner without little to no human intervention that is bliss. Associates don't have to worry about security as JSCAPE supports a variety of protocols that helps in secured file transfer.

What needs improvement?

The integration with our security tools was a hassle when we implemented JSCAPE for secure file transfer. The JSCAPE team could create detailed documents or blogs on how to troubleshoot certain errors that come over in integration with existing environment tools. They could provide a walkthrough of all features in detail as the associates would not be aware of all the features that can be implemented and used to ease the workload. 

JSCAPE team can maybe implement more pre-build integration setups that would help projects with changing business needs. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution for less than a year.

User-friendly with strong security features and decent pricing
Pros and Cons
  • "The speed of transferring large datasets is super quick, which allows us to work on multiple tasks at a time."
  • "The GUI has to be enhanced."

What is our primary use case?

Nowadays, since most of the data is either confidential or comprised of large sets of data, it's difficult to trust software that makes all our manual intervention work easy. 

I found working with this software quite convenient to use with easy UI and provides high security for data transfers which supports encryption protocols like SSL/TLS, SFTP, et cetera.

It is easily integrated with all servers, which ensures there is no issue working with any higher environments.

As monitoring is a key feature, it provides proper end-to-end updates of file transfers and detailed reporting.

How has it helped my organization?

Many organizations trust and only look for security measures that prevent ethical hacking of data from external sources.

This solution helps a lot by having strong security features, automating repetitive tasks, and simplifying file transfer management - all of which lead to increased efficiency, reduced errors and security risks, and improved compliance.

It is user-friendly. Any new buser can be hands-on without deep learning of any complex IT infrastructure needed.

Fast, with helpful triggers and helps with optimization
Pros and Cons
  • "Triggers are something that is very useful as they automate the use of boilerplate code, and we can define certain functionality of certain tasks also."
  • "Database crashing was seen whenever there was an overload."

What is our primary use case?

File Transfer Protocol was something that used to take a lot of time and always needed a resource to monitor it as there was a chance for failure in the transfer of files. With JSCAPE Accelerated File Transfer Protocol, now we can transfer files at 100x speeds when compared to FTPs. There is also an option where we do not need a resource to wait until a particular period of time to initiate the file transfer there is an option of scheduling where we can schedule our tasks at a particular time and can just carry with our work. 

How has it helped my organization?

JSCAPE has helped a lot with optimization. The customization made many complex, time-consuming tasks simpler. We used to have a headache with file transfers since it used to consume a lot of time and required a resource. We have an option of triggers where we eliminate the boilerplate code/repetitive tasks, and we define what should be done after a particular action/task. This has helped a lot in reducing the time required to analyze and redo the task again, and cloud server configuration is made easier.

What is most valuable?

There are many features I found very useful. For example, the Accelerated File Transfer (AFT) protocol, where we can transfer files at 100x the speed when compared to FTPs. Triggers are something that is very useful as they automate the use of boilerplate code, and we can define certain functionality of certain tasks also. 

The cloud server configuration has been made very simpler. We had many complexities with interfaces as we needed to deal with multiple interfaces now. With JSCAPE, we can have a single interface with a central point of contact.

What needs improvement?

Database crashing was seen whenever there was an overload. We found out that this was due to the AV of the server. Customization of rules is something that is not that easy in JSCAPE. The design part is also a bit complicated.  

The user interface is something that has to be worked on. It is quite difficult to store code configuration. API usage is a little difficult, and it is limited to a certain extent. 

Documentation is something that has to be taken care of. Some of the newer features are not properly documented.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution for one year.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I did not use a different version of the solution. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

It is a complete go-ahead for JSCAPE.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I did not evaluate other solutions. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
