Standard license supports most features, but can be coasty for low budget organizations. ----- ### "Great product backed with excellent support" — 5.0/5 > **Justin** | *06 January 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Product is very easy to install and setup. It does everything as advertised. It's particularly nice have one server that can handle ftp and sFTP. The product has a rich feature set which is easy to understand and easy to use. I love being able to administer the users and the perms directly from the UI as well as have full control over the directories and perms. > > **Cons**: There is a significant price gap between professional and Enterprise. For a small business starting out the Enterprise edition is a little expensive. I'd love to see a tier between the two, or an a-la-carte offering on higher tier features. I would also like to interact with the product programmatically and while the product does have a SOAP API, it would be nice to see a more modern RESTful API introduced. ----- ### "Review for Cerberus FTP Server" — 4.0/5 > **Wayne** | *23 January 2022* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The fact it just works, and once configured I can forget about it. > > **Cons**: Don't have any issues. The software works as described. ----- ### "SFTP experience" — 5.0/5 > **Lukáš** | *22 December 2021* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The easy of use, Cerberus contains many secure FTP features and the admin is able to easily manage user access, user rights, enabled connection, geolocation etc. > > **Cons**: There is nothing like this. I like this product. ----- ### "Secure FTP Server everyone can manage." — 5.0/5 > **Juan** | *10 December 2021* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use. HTTPS access for untrained users. Ease of file sharing. > > **Cons**: The user management applet is bit clunky and counter intuitive. > > It has helped non-technical personnel use an SFTP server. It has increased our security posture. In several years of use we have never had an outage. Very sturdy software kit. ----- Page: 1 / 6\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/125535/cerberus-ftp-server?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/125535/cerberus-ftp-server) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
