The State of the Market:
Application leaders are faced with two leading technology
choices when it comes to moving files within or outside the
organization, managed file transfer or content collaboration
(formerly EFSS).
• Through 2020, more than 60% of midsize and large
organizations will deploy MFT technology to support a
growing number of digital business use cases.
• By 2020, 80% of CCP deployments will require back-end
integration with multiple content repositories, federation and
management, as well as data governance capabilities.
According to Gartner

Which solution?
Choosing between managed
file transfer (MFT) and
content collaboration
platforms (CCPs) for file
sharing is confusing due to
overlaps in feature sets
across the technologies.
One solution does not solve
all use cases.
Each technology has distinct
mechanisms that are
optimized for different file
moving scenarios, and one
tool is not usually able to
serve all functional
requirements or digital
business use cases.
Different solution owners.
People who buy MFT are not
usually the same people who
shop for CCPs. This leads to
mismatched decision making
when selecting products.
What are the challenges?

Both solutions transfer files…
…but together they unlock powerful benefits
For Managed File Transfer: new and improved experience for browser, mobile
or desktop users:
• Serving both internal and external users
• Bringing new sync functionality between all devices
• Dealing with limited bandwidth and fluctuating network conditions
• Allowing offline access
For Content Collaboration Platform: frictionless connectivity to backend
systems:
• non-technical users can take advantage of advanced routing, file
preparation (Zip, PGP, character/line fixup, etc.)
• Ubiquitous access to system generated content.
11. • Document and collateral distribution
• “Low tech” organization data submission
• True mobility
• Secure submission of sensitive data
• External customer/vendor/partner submitting
account forms, insurance claims, patient info, etc.
• Ad-hoc delivery
