The following features were added to MOVEit Transfer for the 2018 release:
Secure Folder Sharing and Collaboration. Regular users can selectively share folders or subfolders with all other users (including temp users).
Increased autonomy for regular users.Admins have the power to delegate folder sharing permissions to some, all, or selected regular users --short of granting them FileAdmin permissions.
MOVEit Client. A small and quick transfer client you can use from Windows or macOS machines. (Free for download.)
MOVEit Transfer REST API. A RESTful interface for accessing MOVEit Transfer using your favorite HTTP client, scripting tools, or development language.
Interactive REST API Client. Swagger UI enables you to build and run REST calls against a running MOVEit Transfer Server.
Secure SMTP configuration. Support for easy TLS/SSL configuration within the MOVEit Transfer Configuration Utility.
Limit transfer UI mode by org. Sysadmins can switch on/off each system-level-licensed feature (Secure Folders, Ad Hoc Packages, File/Folder) for each org.
Security and Usability related updates.Mobile server upgrade, Google reCAPTCHA API dependency upgrade, fixes to issues found during periodic testing, and more.
MOVEit Transfer COM API for Windows is officially deprecated. Use the MOVEit Transfer .NET API instead. (In addition to .NET, MOVEit Transfer also provides a JAVA and a REST API.)
[PasswordWarnTime] and [PasswordAgeTimeWarnTime] notification macros are deprecated. (This change took effect in MOVEit Transfer 2017 Plus.) Use PasswordAgeTime and PasswordDaysLeft instead.

Secure Folder Sharing for User-Controlled and User-Selected Subfolders
Increased Autonomy for Regular Users
Admins can opt to install a Secure Folder License and then extend folder sharing authority to all or select MOVEit Transfer users.
Less need for "administrative" (FileAdmin, SysAdmin, Admin) touches.
Few or no requests from users for items such as shared Virtual Folder or System Folder creation.
Users control and curate access lists for folders they own and share.
Users can break away from constraining folder access permissions inherited from the folder above them.
