AWS Transfer Family vs. Globalscape

AWS Transfer Family offers fully managed support for the transfer of files over SFTP, AS2, FTPS, FTP, and web browsers directly into and out of Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS. You can seamlessly migrate, automate, and monitor your file transfer workflows by maintaining existing client-side configurations for authentication, access, and firewalls — so nothing changes for your customers, partners, and internal teams, or their applications.
