GBDo not buy this if you want to know if your stuff is working There is a bug that's been affecting us for quite a while, whereby we get a flurry of 'false' down messages at seemingly random times. We've been talking with support and it's something that is known about but there is no fix yet. We're a small, rural hospital with limited staff, and the alarm fatigue is frankly getting to be DANGEROUS. It's really sad, since we've been running whatsup for several years now, with no real issues. But somehow they can't figure out how to fix this, and it's definitely a significant problem. Will be purchasing a different solution at next possible opportunity.

GBYou do not have to be a computer nerd… You do not have to be a computer nerd to use Ipswitch. The user interface for moving files couldn't be simpler. FIles can be moved by simply dragging them from a computer folder to a website folder or vice versa. Also, the Iipswitch help menu shows how easy it is to create scripts that upload or download files from a website to a computer and schedule the scripts to run once a day or every 5 minutes.

CAThe Ipswitch products I use… The Ipswitch products I use (What'sUpGold & Log Management) are go-to tools in our shop... What'sUPGold is very powerful and it provides us with round-the-clock monitoring of our environment. Log Management is an older product with an out-of-date GUI which needs to be refreshed and made easier to use. It's not as good as some of the SEIM tools on the market today. I find Ipswitch's technical support to be very good once you engage them, their technical support website is not as easy to maneuver through as other sites I'm used to.

GBThe MoveIT Automation and MoveIT DMZ… The MoveIT Automation and MoveIT DMZ products solve so many problems in my enterprise that I've become somewhat of a hero at my company. There seems to be at least one or two people comming to me each week saying "I heard you have a solution to my problem." And I usually do. It's MoveIT.

GBOK product, bad licensing policy I have used WSFTP pro for many years -- practically daily. The product itself is not bad, but they have found that they can't really add much to it, so they do things like restricting your license to only one machine. It's kind of a ripoff given that there are other (free) products available. I have not had great interactions with their support staff either. If you are a first-time buyer: just say no. Many of us are kind of locked in because the product has stored login information in a way that is not easily exportable to other programs. I am in the process of migrating to another system so I can get free of the tyranny.
