Market Trends of Managed File Transfer Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Managed File Transfer Market according to our research experts:
Cloud-based Deployment Model to Grow at a Significant Rate
- Cloud-based service model for the data storage under which digital data is stored in a logical set of pools is used to maintain, back up & manage the large data set and allow easy accessibility to users over any available network. Also, with automation trends prominent, it has become increasingly important for industries to look for solutions that can offer services to reduce infrastructure costs.
- The cloud-based solutions offer higher performance and anticipated service levels that help cater to growing requirements, such as high availability, mixed workload management, near real-time data loads, and complex query execution. Hence, enterprises are availing of the cloud-based model of managed file transfer solutions as an enhanced option for rapidly emerging file-sharing services across the business ecosystem.
- According to a survey by MuleSoft, a new generation of Cloud Managed File Transfer as a Service (MFTaaS) has emerged in recent years. MFTaaS means Managed File Transfer is delivered as a cloud-native service with a hybrid architecture to share files internally and with partners. Its flexible and rapid deployment, flexible scalability, and subscription-based licensing are among the major reason many organizations choose MFTaaS over on-premises solutions.
- The advent of next-generation solutions facilitates cutting-edge file transfer product features that can be controlled through detailed management and operational APIs. These next-generation solutions focus more on providing solutions rather than product range. Furthermore, the solution providers also focus on integrating different elements to deliver a customer-centric experience enriched with by-products and services to accelerate user adoption.
- Furthermore, the vendors are also focusing on launching solutions that can be equally accessible on various cloud platforms. For instance, in June 2022, Axway, one of the providers of API-driven B2B integration and MFT Software, announced the latest release of MFT for Axway Managed Cloud. The company announced that the software would be available through subscriptions in both Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services marketplaces to provide better cost control and compatibility.

North America to Hold Significant Market Share
- Companies across the North American region are stepping into a new era of hybrid IT management system that combines public cloud, private cloud, and traditional IT. These organizations have implemented a hybrid cloud strategy as it is helping them to improve the way they run their business and deliver services to customers.
- Additionally, the increased electronic device penetration in the North American region has resulted in the high adoption of BYOD, forcing companies to adopt cloud MFT services to address employee needs. Furthermore, the presence of prominent startups with an aggressive MFT policy and freedom for employees has augmented the growth of the managed file transfer market.
- According to a study conducted by IPSwitch in January 2021, MFT has emerged as a key technology that will play a major role in the success of many businesses in moving data reliably and securely at the right time. Furthermore, MFT solutions enable organizations to securely transfer sensitive information as needed, allowing internal and external teams to conduct business without compromising their digital assets.
- As the number of cyber incidents and data breaches is growing in countries such as the United States and Canada, users who regularly transfer financial, personal, or other sensitive data and are concerned about data security, accessibility, and compliance while maintaining control are expected to increase their investment in MFT solutions. For instance, according to the Identity Theft Resource Center, in 2021, about 817 data compromise incidents were identified in the United States, impacting about 53.35 million individuals.
