Built with creative professionals in mind, LucidLink is a game-changer for industries like media production, design, and film. It’s equally valuable for teams in marketing, architecture, engineering, healthcare, and enterprises working with large datasets. LucidLink eliminates the delays of traditional file-sharing methods, enabling teams to collaborate simultaneously and stay productive around the clock.

Whether you’re working on sensitive creative assets or proprietary business content, you can trust LucidLink to keep your data secure. LucidLink works seamlessly with tools like Adobe Premiere Pro, Media Composer, DaVinci Resolve, and CAD software, making it easy to integrate into existing workflows. 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.

What do you like best about LucidLink?

Video editing with lucidlink is seamless. Mounting just like any other drive makes it so easy and then you just work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LucidLink?

Sometimes large, overwhelming files (lots of layers, etc) can bog it down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Eliminating Dropbox or other complex ways of transferring files. We use it in our VFX workflow for sending plates to VFX vendors and recieving them back and it's great. Most vendors even render directly to the luicdlink space so we have it immediately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LucidLink?

Lucid Link has been extremely helpful in our fully remote workflow and works nicely for our team members who are onsite in the office. We don't have to worry about setting up remote machines to access a physical server, it's super easy to mount onto your mac, and the handy toolbar status updates are useful as well to monitor storage used and connection efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LucidLink?

I think some people have mentioned that it's a slightly different experience on the windows side of things, but not exactly sure from my own end, I don't think it's anything of alarm. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Solving the problem of having a full remote server, which I'm so thankful to have now! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LucidLink?

My favorite thing about LucidLink is that it one of those tools that just works. There's very little complexity to it. The system is easy to set up and configure and they have a pricing model that makes it very easy to anticipate costs. We've had very few technical issues with it and even when we have their tech support is very responsive and quick to resolve even minor issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LucidLink?

There's not much to really dislike about the system. I wish there were "guest" or "read-only" account options offered at a lower price but hard to complain too much given the price point it's offered at. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Our post-production team went fully remote after COVID and needed a solution to keep everyone working together. With LucidLink, we're able to have everyone working off a shared storage solution that doesn't require a complex server system and can work with the challenge of having everyone on different internet speeds and operating systems.

Prior to using LucidLink we had a botched backup system via Dropbox and it made connecting to PR projects a pain in the ass. Now its super simple to access whatever files are needed at the click of a button Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LucidLink?

The only downside to Lucid Link which doesn't even affect me is that you have to be online for it to work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
