"Easy to use - visually appealing interface."
The upside is that anyone I send files to can use with ease. Unlike some other file-sharing platforms, the learning curve is negligible.

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

WeTransfer is providing a freemium service for collobration and file transfer. One can use the free version without any issueing and without even logging in. For me it is solving the problem of file sharing via emails, since they have size limitations, using this tool i can by-pass it for free and avoid paying for premium email services.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

I love the ability and flexibility that WeTransfer provides, allowing me to send and receive large and sometimes enormous files and documents. This system will enable me to send and receive large presentations, documents, and audio files. Because of their large size and limitations of e-mail inboxes, We Transfer provides me with a conduit to send and receive these files. Files can easily be accessed via links sent. Data sent in files can be asily intergated into software that I use. When i have files that are too large to send in a regular e-mail I frequently / often use WeTransfer to fo the job. The system is easy to sue and can be simply accessed and implemented. Its so simple and works so well that I have never needed to call the Customer Support line. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

Sometimes when using the system, it takes a while to upload my file. It occasionally takes a while to download a file sent to me. This minor issue is usually because of the size of the file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

WeTransfer solves the problem of sending large presentations to internal and external stakeholders. It allows me to receive audio files, which by definition, are huge and almost always larger than the e-mail inbox will allow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

It is suitable for all audiences and is ideal for teams and professionals. It has options to work with very large files and share them without time limit.

One of the best things about Wetransfer is that an account is not required to send files. It's as simple as entering the email addresses and you're done. A real solution to send high quality documents and photos without problems.

The upload and download speed is amazing, and generous size limits mean I can ship whatever I need without hassle.

Since I use this tool, I no longer have to worry about the space in my email or about compressing files. The ability to send up to 2 GB in the free version is a big plus.

I love the download notification feature of Wetransfer. It is very useful to know when my recipients have downloaded the files I have sent them.

Security is crucial to me, and Wetransfer more than meets. I always feel safe when sending confidential files through this platform, knowing that they are protected and encrypted.

Wetransfer also has an App to use from your mobile phone that is just as easy and useful to use from anywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

I could improve the layout of the page to make it more attractive. Only for aesthetics and differentiation. Maybe more colors, bigger the user form and password Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I use We transfer as a tool to share and store files in the cloud. you have options to work with very large files and share them without time limit. It can also be used from the phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

For file transfers 2GB or less it is free and easy to use. No need for sign up just verify email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

It is not ideal for viewing video files within the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

As a video editor/producer I routinely have to deliver video files to clients for review and approval, also they often have to send video files and other resources to me. The packages can be quite large. Several of my clients are not very tech savvy and balk at having to sign up for yet another service. I have a paid version because I use it nearly everyday but for clients who are sending me something for the first time I can assure them all they have to do is drag and drop the file and verify their email address. Very easy and fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

The versatility and speed of use. Submitting files is really easy for multiple formats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

The impossibility of having a configurable profile in the free version. This makes it impossible to have shipping statistics and usage trends as a user (the one who sends) and statistics for (the ones who receive). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering WeTransfer:

In the free account it is only functionally to send files and notify when the recipient opens it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Increased productivity with immediate file submission. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

How simple it is. You just upload the files, put the address of the one you send it to, yours, confirm the email they send you, and that's it. And it's free up to 2G... which is rare to upload a file that weighs more. I have always been working with the free version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

Perhaps in the free version, the limit on file size or the time allowed to download them could be increased, but come on, both are not bad as they are now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

When I have to send a Photoshop file to a colleague or client and the email limits me due to the file size, this application always solves the problem for me. Moreover, it is quite widespread and (almost) everyone understands when you say you will send them a WeTransfer. Besides, you don't need to fill out a registration form, it works almost like sending an email, your address, the other person's, message, and the file to send... easy and fast (and free).

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

With we transfer we quickly share files with our external providers, in this way we avoid saving things in our cloud of things that we will not need in the future, an important thing that the links are active for a maximum of 2 weeks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

The limit of free transfers is a maximum of 2GB of data per link, if you want to send heavier things, you must buy the pro license, it removes all the limitations, another thing is that if you forget to download the files after those two weeks, they will already be deleted by the server Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We can easily send briefs or important documents to people inside or outside our Google Workspace domain for approval. What makes us save time and space in our Google Drive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

Customize ability for the background to be your companies. The easy way to either send as an email or a copied link. And the easy way to send multiple files at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

I'm not sure about the pricing, as I don't pay it myself but my company does, I'm betting it's not the cheapest option, and I'm also not sure it's the safest when it comes to sending private info, so we have switched away from it and mostly used SharePoint now with Microsoft and teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It solves the fast way of uploading bigger files such as video and photos that isn't possible when clients don't share the same sharing platform as you do, they don't need to login or create an account to access, they can simply click the link or email and download the file.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

I love that WeTransfer makes sending large files so easily to my clients. One of the best features is that We Transfer lets me know when the client has downloaded the files. Another great feature is that We Transfer will archive the file on their server for up to a year! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

Nothing that I can think of. there is so much to love about WeTransfer because it's so simple and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

When I started my business, I originally used dropbox to send large files, but it was clunky and sometimes difficult to manage. When I used WeTransfer, the uploads and downloads were seemless--best of all, I got a notification that my files had been downloaded! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
