In this video, we introduce Axway Workbench — the intelligent command center designed to give you complete control, visibility, and automation over your file transfers. Whether you're troubleshooting failures or scaling operations, Workbench is built to help you achieve operational excellence. 🟢 Monitor server health across your entire Axway MFT environment — all from one dashboard. 🔍 Search by filename to trace a file’s journey without digging through logs. ⚙️ Detect SLA breach risks and automate tasks like certificate monitoring and partner onboarding. [Full video transcript] Axway Workbench is our brand-new solution that extends your Axway MFT environment, redefining how you govern, troubleshoot, and optimize file transfers. Plenty of file transfer solutions can move files. We enhance business processes. Here are four ways Axway Workbench elevates file transfer management to a new standard of visibility, control, and governance. 1. Never let a server outage catch you by surprise Whether you're managing 10 servers or 500, performance degradation can be hard to spot — until it's too late and the business suffers. Workbench gives you a real-time health view across all Axway MFT servers, with intuitive color indicators: Green for healthy, Amber for warning, and Red for unresponsive. Drill down into system resources, daemon or service status, and even perform restart services — all from one console. No more jumping between interfaces, no more wasted time! 2. Track files end-to-end, without the frustrating log hunt. A file didn’t get to its destination. Now what? Instead of digging through logs across multiple servers, with Workbench, you can search by filename to track a file's journey — including retries, failures, and timestamps – regardless of how many MFT servers it has moved through. 3. Catch issues before they become an SLA breach Most MFT solutions on the market today can detect file transfer failures. Great! But successful operations require more than just knowing whether a file arrived. If files are delivered late and disrupt business processes, a green checkmark isn’t cutting it. Axway Workbench changes that, with automated rule-based alerts for late deliveries, malformed files, and more. This means you can detect SLA breach risks in real time; before they impact the downstream. Build your own rules in the visual studio, or use our pre-configured templates. Plus, you get notified via email, Teams, or ServiceNow — right where your teams work! 4. Save time managing hundreds of partners by automating. As operations scale, challenges compound. More partners mean more transfers, more on-boarding, and more overhead. Automating mundane tasks such as certificate management frees up your team for other tasks. Workbench’s centralized certificate view warns when certificates are close to expiring – before they become disruptions. With our intelligent command center to govern it all, you can also tackle password resets, monitoring for configuration drift, or changes in configuration across multiple servers. Workbench enables self-service and automation, breaking the link between scaling and overheads. Axway Workbench brings the control, visibility, and automation needed to make MFT truly manageable. It’s not just a nice-to-have. For organizations that are serious about operational excellence, it’s essential.
