How AI is used

Egnyte is a cloud content intelligence platform that combines file sharing, data governance, and security tools. It is designed for businesses that require a centralized repository for documents with more control and oversight than standard cloud storage.

The platform supports a range of organizations, including those in the AEC, Life Sciences, and Financial Services sectors where managing large files and maintaining regulatory compliance is common.

Beyond storage, the platform includes AI-driven tools to help users find information across documents and identify sensitive data. It also includes security features for ransomware detection and content lifecycle management.

Buyers should confirm the appropriate plan based on their requirements for AI functionality, ransomware detection, and specific compliance needs, as these features are tiered across pricing levels.
