Sharefile assures me that my files are safe and will not be harmed by malicious third parties, and the help I receive is per real person, not robots, my mailbox is not collapsed, which saves us time and money. My team is satisfied I do not know what else I could ask Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When using this type of tools that provide security when sending your files, the trifles that could cause discomfort are insignificant considering that they will improve over time. Another serious factor seems that it could be expensive for some, but it's worth it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We like the system so flexible when it comes to synchronizing files with many devices attached to the cloud. It is quite useful for team collaboration, and allows compliance tracking. The encryption of documents is extremely broad, allowing us to quietly safeguard all kinds of documents. We are fascinated by its file weight capacity, up to 100 gigabytes (It is bigger than the capacity offered by many other document management platforms) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The integration between the sharefile and office suite platforms does not seem good. At least, it is difficult to access files from office, and authentication processes are impractical, and they waste our time. We do not like its tool for implementing confidentiality agreements, and its ability to index documents Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I can upload huge files and send them directly to others and they can easily download it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don’t like that I have to double-check the expiration dates and I don’t like that those dates are set up by my organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The web interface was easy to pick up on. We migrated to Sharefile from another large file sharing site that was falling short in what we needed for our multiple plants. Sharefile gave a central space to the large amount of video files we use for inspections and documentation of various equipment that we own and lease. Having a central space to record and track all inspections was fundamental to our business needs. What impressed me most about Sharefile was the cleanliness of the website and the ease of use that it exemplifies. It took less than an hour to get all our workers on board with the how to use the site and catalog our files.One of our most-used features of ShareFile is setting up our clients with individual folders to allow them to upload and store their advertising creative. This is similar to FTP, but ShareFile allows us to receive notifications based on upload, download, etc on a per-folder and per-user basis. We also set it up to notify the client when their ad is downloaded by a member of our team, thereby completely automating the ad delivery process for our publication. The other great feature of ShareFile that we use is desktop app synchronization. This allows ads to be curated by our ad manager and delivered to our production team automatically.

Every 4-6 months, you have to reinstall Sharefile desktop because the app is not the same anymore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Sharefile plugin for Outlook makes sending and requesting secured files a breeze! Once properly configured, all it takes is the click of a button to send your message or files encrypted. If you send an encrypted email, every reply thereafter is part of the encrypted chain. It's fantastic! You can set up company-wide settings so that they do not have to be set up on an individual user level. This helps speed up set up for new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes, requested files are a little difficult to find after a user has dropped them into the filebox. At times, even after already been signed in, you are asked to sign in again in order to access an already sent secured email.
The notifications you receive when there is activity on your Sharefile account are very similar. This makes it difficult to easily tell whether a recipient has read one of your sent emails, or if someone has securely uploaded a file to your filebox for download. This could potentially cause you to miss incoming files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
My favorite thing about Sharefile is how user friendly it is. It's easy to create new folders, invite people to view documents, and create hyperlinks to send others. I like that you can choose to get a notification when the files have been downloaded, with the option of requiring the receiver to enter their name and information. I also like that you can send a link so that others can upload files to you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It seems things take a while to upload, but I'm not sure if that's sharefile or the internet connection. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is a great tool that helps you with excellent sharing of your large files without any hindrance an full powered security so that no chances are there for leakage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its pricing is a bit problem for some to buy it otherwise its working is really cool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Currently, we are using ShareFile across the departments of the institution. This software is being used in document management specifically in large document transfer.
One thing that I like about ShareFile is its ability to Share large files easily and in real time. This tool is tailored in such a way that it compresses these large documents making it easy for the user sender to upload files and for the receiver to easily download the file.
Another thing I like about this software is its security features. ShareFile has a wide option of technologies that are tailored in making sure that your data is secure. These security technology options include a link that can only be shared to specific intended individuals and set to expire within a given set time. It has also the document password that is only shared to the intended recipient and is the key for one to download the files. With this tool, one need not get worried about your data getting in the hands of the unwanted third parties. It is highly secure.
The software is easy to use and easy to implement. I love that this software is very user-friendly and had an interface that is highly intuitive making it easy for us to use it. It is also easy to impliment.Few minutes after getting the tool one can use it. Again, one can easily configure it by him or herself.
I love the fact that this software integrates with other products such as Outlook.This increases workflow and allows for collaboration such that when the file is shared using the email is big it automatically switches to ShareFile.
The software has also large cloud storage. This helps us to store the various type of files we have. It is exciting also that the storage is cloud making it easy for us to access files.

The search feature is poor. Filters need to be added to make it quick.
It has a very poor history feature. This need to be improved so as to be able to see the different version of files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The level of security - there's only a single link for a single person. It's harder to send the same file to multiple people especially if they want to receive the file in two different email addresses Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The level of security makes it a pain to share files with other people. Many times, you'd end up asking whether the intended recipient was able to access and download the file from ShareFile or not and more often than not, the answer would be no Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sharefile ensures that our files are completely secure and can not be affected by external attacks that can steal our information. Our work team is very satisfied with its performance as it performs its work correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When you have a large number of files saved in Sharefile it is quite difficult to find them since you do not have an efficient search engine to quickly find the files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
