Guess Who’s #1. Again. (Hint: It’s Us!)

Andrei Olin

At bTrade, our mission has always been to keep you ahead of the curve with the latest in managed file transfer ("MFT") and data security. But every so often, we have a reason to step back and celebrate. And today is one of those moments.

We're thrilled to share that bTrade has once again been recognized as the #1 MFT vendor in the mid-market category by SoftwareReviews, a division of Info-Tech Research Group. This prestigious recognition is showcased in SoftwareReviews’ March 2025 Data Quadrant Report (the "Report") for MFT vendors. This marks the third consecutive year that bTrade received this accolade, a true testament to the trust our customers place in us and the results our platform delivers.

But this isn’t just about recognition. It’s about validation of the innovation, reliability, and user experience that distinguished bTrade’s TDXchange platform among a crowded MFT market.

bTrade was named the "2025 Data Quadrant Champion." bTrade earned the top overall position by outperforming all other vendors in the space. As mentioned, the rankings are based entirely on verified user reviews, making this honor a direct reflection of bTrade’s impact on its customer base.

bTrade was named an “Emotional Footprint Champion” based on its perfect score of 100 in this category. This distinction awarded to vendors that not only deliver technically but also build strong, trust-based relationships with customers. bTrade receiving this recognition is especially meaningful because it captures how users feel about their vendor, not just what the software can do. According to the Report, bTrade’s users associate the company with client-friendly policies, fair pricing and transparent practices, respectful and responsive support, and ongoing product innovation and reliability. This strong emotional connection is what sets bTrade apart, not just as a software vendor, but as a trusted long-term partner.

bTrade earned top performer in key evaluation categories based on industry-leading scores across all product and vendor performance dimensions, including product feature satisfaction (users highlighted the robustness and security of the platform, citing its reliability under pressure and compatibility with complex workflows); vendor capabilities (bTrade excelled in areas like implementation support, ease of doing business, and ongoing product direction); and value for cost (customers consistently rated bTrade as delivering exceptional value relative to the price point, which is an increasingly important factor in today’s IT budget environment).
