GoAnywhere versus SSIS was an easy decision. SSIS works great for SQL Server and that's about it. Our primary database is DB2 and it is a real pain to use SSIS for this. Go Anywhere versus Datastage is tougher. DataStage is a far more comprehensive package. However, GA is far …
I did POC software on many vendors for month. I found out that GoAnywhere was the perfect solutions for us. When POC in progress, some vendors refused to help me or guide without buying the software. When I called support for GoAnywhere they were able to help me without any …
GoAnywhere adds features as extra modules, allowing you to start with the most basic file transferring solution and scaling up as you find other uses. Adding more modules means that you are building on an existing platform, and you will not need to seek out other vendors.
I've never used a product that handles file transfers in the way GoAnywhere does. I have used other SFTP servers and this is by far the most robust and easiest to use. I've used FileZilla, Cerberus and Windows for FTP services and this by far is easier to set up and manage …

There is not a comparison between these solutions and GoAnywhere MFT. GoAnywhere MFT is above and beyond anything that these solutions could ever aspire to be.

Data extraction: You can pull data from nearly any database and send it to users/partners in a variety of formats.
Data transformation: Great for massaging data and transforming it to XML, text, spreadsheets, etc.
Data Integration: An extremely useful tool for moving data between different systems. I have used it to integrate data from Oracle, Netezza, DB2, SQL Server, and even Interbase.
Since using it and having time to work with it, its process and actions are growing on me and once a project is created one can implement across numerous location or platforms
GoAnywhere's support team is absolutely wonderful. They are always very fast to respond and will do anything that they can to help you with whatever dilemma you are facing. They also have a great user forum that is very helpful if you are looking for the solution to a problem or just want some advice from others. They are constantly looking to improve and always looking for suggestions on what customers would like to see next which is refreshing.
Implementation was straight forward. We paid for 50 hours of professional service in case, we need help. We end using only 10 hours. I have only 1 month to convert over 120 scripts from FTP voyager to goanywhere. Old script was had written using bat files. Some of the batch file were written by some other person, who passed away. Documents for old script was not in details. With the professional service, I was able to convert all script within windows
