During a review of the Managed File Transfer vendor landscape, Globalscape was not only named a Champion – which is the highest distinction awarded – in the Ad-Hoc Mid-Market category, but a Leader in the Ad-Hoc Enterprise use case. The Ad-Hoc Mid-Market category looks at organizations with 50-500 employees while the Ad-Hoc Enterprise represents organizations with more than 500 employees that likely engage in "spontaneous, user driven file transfer." Info-Tech Research Group noted that Globalscape is ideal for organizations that are looking for secure, customized MFT solutions. Globalscape was also given Exceptional or Good marks in the evaluation of its product and overall company, performing exceptionally well in the usability and reach categories. In addition, Globalscape performed well on the overall Info-Tech Research Group Value Index, which provided value ratings for each use case.
In addition to the overall ratings, Info-Tech Research Group also recognized Globalscape's strengths in compliance and security. Globalscape's history of working in highly secure industries and markets was noted as an indicator as to why the focus on security and compliance features remains a strength for the company and its resulting products.
Globalscape's core information exchange solution is its Enhanced File Transfer™ (EFT™), which allows organizations to efficiently manage data transfers with the support of a robust security architecture. EFT's built-in security features meet business and regulatory requirements, and include a powerful server, automated client, wizard-based configuration, automated file transfers, advanced authentication options, and two-factor authentication.
