With an intuitive setup and minimal learning curve, teams can start collaborating instantly without missing a beat. Whether it’s a small creative studio or a global enterprise, LucidLink helps organizations unlock their potential, improve efficiency, and stay ahead in today’s fast-paced digital landscape.

The one issue that I had with LucidLink was the user permissions. We needed a more fullfeatured permissions and user management platform that what was provided here.

What do you like best about LucidLink?

LucidLink performed flawlessly for us. The co-editor and myself enjoyed it without issue. However, the highest praise came from our Creative Director / Co-owner who said “I constantly forgot we were using Lucid unless someone said it’s name. That’s how well it worked!” Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Billing structure required some explaining after terminating the service (due to end of clietn contract). Customer Support was patient and kind explaining it to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

LucidLink is wonderful - makes collaborating remotely super easy and efficient. I can work with clients in a much more seamless way than sending files through alternative means. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LucidLink?

The installation and update process can be a little finnicky due to the addition of security features in recent versions of MacOS and Apple silicon computers. I had to boot into recovery mode in order to change the security settings I needed to for installation on my new Mac Studio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LucidLink?

I like how ease it was to set up LucidLink! A quick download of their client, and you can add users right away. With other platforms, it's all or nothing with permissions, but with LucidLink you can really customize it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LucidLink?

There isn't a ton of flexibility when it comes to adding storage a la carte. However, I do think it's worth speaking to their very knowledgeable team about what works best for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LucidLink solving and how is that benefiting you?

LucidLink is really making it easy to manage storage and view raw video footage easily. With LucidLink, you're able to connect individuals remotely so everyone is on one platform. I'm able to hand off footage from one team to another so quickly, and that cuts down on our time to deliver overall! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LucidLink?

Lucid link works transparently on a Windows network and makes it easy to share files with other platforms. It is also the fastest service I tried. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LucidLink?

Nothing so far, but I would like the Linux and macOS implementations to work as seemlessly as the Windows one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LucidLink solving and how is that benefiting you?

It solves the problem of sharing files with content creators and clients. They just need to install LucidLink and they can use their preferred review tool instead of being limited to what the Web offers or to a vendor's review tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
