I'm making the switch to their services into my daily processes. Again, very clean and intuitive interface looks professional and goes a long way. Pros I think Limewire really excels in their interface. It's super clean compared to the other file transfer providers I'm used to. The activity summary is an added bonus. Cons Not much to say here because they do what they say they do. I had a few transfers not work but that can happen with my internet connection. Switched from [WeTransfer](https://www.capterra.com/p/176600/WeTransfer/) WeTransfer failed me too many times with their uploads not working and they increased their prices. Review Source YUMA M. President Arts and Crafts Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "BEST TRANSFER WAY." January 5, 2025 5.0 Pros Simple and powerful data sharing system. Cons User interface still not very sophisticated.

Pros It makes it easy to share files, and provides an all-in-one place for AI file manipulation. Cons It's a little hard to navigate, but once you figure it out, it's easy to use.

Photographer, Film Maker Photography Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Good file sharing service." March 31, 2025 5.0 It's good as a file sharing site, with a bigger file size cap and files stay available for 7 days on the free tier. Since WeTransfer now limits you to max 3gb a month and max 10 uploads a month I was looking for something else and Limewire fits my needs perfectly. Pros For file sharing it's fast, secure and had a good file size limit. Cons If you just want simple file sharing the website can be a bit cluttered. Because there are also AI tools & crypto that have nothing to do with the file sharing part. Switched from [WeTransfer](https://www.capterra.com/p/176600/WeTransfer/) Monthly and file size limit of WeTransfer is way too low. And the limits getting worse and worse. Review Source DM Derek M.
