Difficulty installing and/or onboarding editors due to the security settings that must be disabled on user computer or internet service provider.

What do you like best about LucidLink?

The simple fact that the drive mounts and appears natively on the client computer. No web interfaces, no downloading individual files or zip archives. Browse the files and directories as easily as if it were on your own local and removable drives. Being able to quickly view thumbnails and previews of files without having to download them in it's entirety makes it a must when working with large files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LucidLink?

There doesn't appear to be a way to utilise a local appliance/server hardware to cache data on-premise, which would be useful as even with multi-gigabit connections, bandwidth does come at a premium and time-cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

LucidLink is solving our need for a flexible storage solution that allows local and remote access of large video, audio and image files, to be shared with a team scattered geographically. Being able to work with these files with minimal delay even if they are not downloaded locally is a big advantage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LucidLink?

Lucid has been a great addition to our workflow. We are a global video production company and before the Lucid integration, we were stuck endlessly uploading and downloading project files and assets if/when projects switched hands. Lucid's single source of truth has been revolutionary to our process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LucidLink?

With every significant process change, you can experience friction with the rollout, and Lucid's integration is no different. The internet speeds needed for smooth playback have been one of our main hurdles outside the US offices, but we are learning how to overcome that while reaping the benefits of a cloud-based workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

With many offices shifting to a remote or hybrid model, hopping from machine to machine means that you then have to have media travel from place to place, or worse you have to have a single project in multiple places never knowing which drive has the most up to date files/media. Lucid has been extremely beneficial in eliminating the guesswork of redundant files which makes hopping in and out of projects and even archiving media a breeze.

What do you like best about LucidLink?

It's ease of use and I don't have to worry about bringing a harddrive back and forth between home and in the office. I also like that I can easily share access to external editors to work on projects and upload footage into without worrying about "disk" space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LucidLink?

Because I don't have access to large bandwidth speeds, extra management is needed to make the most of Lucid, such pre-pinning data before working on projects, ensuring down/up speeds aren't consuming the entire office/home bandwidth, otherwise projects can be unworkable. Many features are also used through the command prompt which can put off some users not too familar with using the command prompt. Would be nice to implement more inside the control panel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Lucid has become a hybrid solution to us for sharing footage with massive file sizes, as well as sharing projects to external editors. It's also flexible in that I can work from home if something comes up, whatever files I have at the office, I have immediate access at home. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
