"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 do you like best about WeTransfer?

WeTransfer gives you lots of sharing space, we can easily share a whole photoshoot in one transfer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

I wish it remembered past email contacts better, most of the time it does but sometimes it cannot recall a previous recipient Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering WeTransfer:

The free version is more than sufficient for daily use. Just don't wait too long to download your files because the links do expire after so many days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We're able to get a whole shoot from our offsite photographer in one easy download which is great Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

WeTransfer is invaluable for sharing large files with our suppliers in Europe and especially in Asia, where several other file sharing sites are blocked or inoperable. Totally seamless and hassle-free experience, beautiful interface, artist backgrounds! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

2gb file limits means sometimes I have to split large folders into multiple uploads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We used to have to share art files on physical media because most file sharing sites have difficulty operating in certain countries, but WeTransfer has worked perfectly in countries, such as China, where file sharing used to be much more prohibitive and difficult.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

I think it works great. You do not have to register and sign up to do it or receive anything. You just use your email and start upload immediately. Very simple, one page and works wonderful to send big files to someone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

I can't say I have any issues with the program right now. I think when we are not home and sending something that may take a few hours, sometimes it's hard to know where it is at with being finished. You might get nervous that it didn't send. So to have a real time update or a text or email saying what percentage would be nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering WeTransfer:

I just think it's a great product that is simple to use and fast. Helps a lot in a fast paced world where you need to share a lot of info or files to others. Great for working freelance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Sharing photo's, video and music very quickly instead of meeting someone and sharing hard drives. Especially for working in media and photography. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

This is a great solution for people that often have large files that they need to get to a customer / client and because of the size can't email it. It's simple for both the user and the end-user to use and provides a great alternative to storing files in a place that you don't necessarily need them on a cloud. Just like the title says ... it's as simple as Drag, drop, deliver, and download ... but there is no Grade "D" for this great little solution to one of life's little challenges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

The only thing that I don't like is that the files (in the free version) are only kept for 7 days. This is a minor nuisance but I have had a few times where I had to resend the files because the client didn't download them in time. No fault of wetransfer, so it's not really a "dislike". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering WeTransfer:

Absolutely, this is a simple drag and drop solution for getting files from one place to another with confirmation of whether the files have been transferred. Great way to "CYA" cover your A**. :P Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Often large project files are just too darn big for email. Instead of taking up my storage space in a dropbox or other place ... I simple zip up the file and wetransfer to my client. Best part is ... I know if the files have been delivered or downloaded!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

Quick and easy use with power user features if you sign up for a pro account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

Even with a pro account we have to maintain files within the we transfer system to make sure we have enough space at all times. This may be an issue for a user who transfers a lot of large video files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are solving the problem of getting large files to clients all across the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

I really like the two options for sharing: either link or email the receiver directly. It makes this very user friendly and allows me to customize my message if I'd like to share the download in my own email client or application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

I don't really have any dislikes. But, one area for improvement would be the main landing page. The actual tool itself is a very small footprint with large ads/graphics on the rest of the page. Having a bit more space for the tool itself may make it a bit more user friendly and intuitive. At first it's a bit hard to tell where to click to start the process. Once you do it once, however, it's very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering WeTransfer:

I currently utilize the free WeTransfer when I encounter limitations on my company internal FileTransfer tool or when I need to easily share large files for my personal small business (photography). If you are considering this tool for a larger implementation, you'll want to most likely understand more about the security behind the file transfer and what options are available with how long files are available, etc. I do like that if I have a vendor or contact that is external to the company, I can easily share files with that individual without any headaches and know that the file will "expire" after a limited amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Sometimes I need to send large files very quickly. With large graphics and photos, often many sharing sites "max out" with file size limitations. I like that I can see the progress of my upload (instead of wondering whether it's truly working or if the page froze) and get a confirmation when my receiver accesses the file(s). I really like those benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WeTransfer?

Very good site. It helps me to always send large files at far. I am a web designer and often send the original files that weigh around 1GB in We Transfer.

Everyone gets a link to the file and can istegli when it pleases. File away about two weeks in what could be istegli from anywhere. When you send a file to a friend and he istegli, you get a notice that he downloaded

The free version is up to 2GB has paid up to 20GB. Before I used paid up to 10GB, but now free and work for me this time.You can pay month to month if you need more space now for example. It is very convenient Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

I like everything. They can only improve the speed of uploading. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering WeTransfer:

May allow larger files.More choices of different plans Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

When I send a file to my work use We Transfer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
