Kiteworks vs. eSHARE:
The Smart Alternative for Secure Collaboration

Looking for a modern, compliant, and cost-effective way to collaborate externally without the complexity of legacy platforms like Kiteworks? You’re not alone. Enterprises across highly regulated industries are moving to eSHARE, a Microsoft 365-native solution built for the AI era, where agility, governance, and cost transparency matter more than ever.

Why Enterprises Are Moving Away from Kiteworks

Kiteworks and other legacy file-sharing platforms were designed for a different time — before the explosion of cloud-first collaboration, AI-driven data strategies, and modern compliance requirements.Today, organizations face real challenges with these tools:

Data duplication that derails AI and increases risk

Guest accounts that expand your attack surface

Unpredictable pricing and hidden costs

Disconnected platforms that create more overheard than value
