### "Review about WeTransfer"

May 19, 2023

5.0

if we come to the point. WeTransfer is a popular tool used by both individuals and companies due to its capacity to make the process of exchanging massive files simple. WeTransfer's usefulness for any particular use case would rely on your file transfer needs and priorities, though.

Pros

WeTransfer can send files up to 2GB in size without paying a fee. When dealing with large media files, sharp photos, or lengthy documents that are difficult to send by email, this is especially helpful.

Cons

A steady internet connection is necessary for both uploading and downloading using WeTransfer. The speed and dependability of file transfers may be impacted by a sluggish or inconsistent internet connection.

### "WeTransfer - easy to use and safe"

January 3, 2023

5.0

Our experience of WeTransfer has been a positive one. Easy to use and functional. We would recommend it for sage file transfers and storage of documents for many industries. It's inexpensive and offers reliability, security and speed.

Pros

File sharing is an easy process and we've not found any difficulties using the service. We've used WeTransfer for several months now and the the service to be reliable and efficient.

Cons

After using WeTransfer for several months, we've not had any issues. No cons to report. It would be unfair of me to report anything as our experience has been a very one.

### "Effortless Transfer of Large Files"

April 6, 2021

5.0

The simplicity of the interface makes this an ideal tool for users across the skills spectrum. It is as easy for a novice as it is for a pro to use this platform. This means that a company workflow can function well and uninterrupted, and ensures that critical work is completed well within time.

Pros

WeTransfer offers their user a super-simple online interface, and offer both a Free and Pro version. The free version allows for sending files up to 2GB in size, while the Pro version is ten times that. In addition the Pro version offers storage space, and syncing for teams over multiple devices. The pricing is very competitive and really affordable.

Cons

There are no real dislikes to the interface or platform, it being online, easily accessible and really easy to use and navigate. Not many platforms get a 100% approval, but WeTransfer proves to be one exception.

### "Ideal tool for remote work"

October 9, 2022

3.0

Pros

I started using WeTransfer at the start of the pandemic back in 2020 and found it really useful. When I was satisfied with the free version, I then upgraded to the Pro version as the free version limits the size to 2GB per file. WeTransfer is an extremely easy to use Cloud Storage as well as Super Fast File Transfer utility. No data loss was observed during file transfer and speeds were acceptable. Pro gives 20GB limit and a massive 1 TB cloud storage data. For all this, I will never mind spending $12 a month.

Cons

Quite obviously the biggest negative comes with the free version as it deletes files after 7 days. This makes absolutely no sense to me. I mean WeTransfer is already having 2GB limit on the free version, but this weekly limit is simply pushing you to pay them for Proversion as the shared link expires in a week.

### "Review on Wetransfer"

November 7, 2022

5.0

Overall, I give Wetransfer 5 stars because I use it almost every day and it's really easy to use. And because of the extensive storage space, I can send huge files without a long wait.

Pros

What I love about this software is how easy it is to use and how simple is the general interface. Also I must say that the upload time is extremely fast in comparison to other similar softwares.

Cons

One of the things I like least about this software is that I usually get 3 emails informing me about the fact that the message was sent, and that some one has opened it in addition to the confirmation code. And if I send the file to myself - I get 4 emails. For me it's a bit too much. Maybe there's a way to minimize the number of emails sent.

Pros

### "The best app to transfer documents ever"

August 27, 2019

5.0

It is a tool that makes my life easier. It is perfect for people who manage huge size files.

Pros

As a graphic designer, I am constantly sending artworks and I can't be happier that Wetransfer exists. It is a tool that makes your life easier, in addition to being super fast and easy to understand, it perfectly fulfills its function even using the free option.

Cons

The download link expires after 1 week if you are not a member, no matter the size of the file it expires.

### "The Go-To For Large File Sharing Across The Web"

June 30, 2022

5.0

Overall, this came to my rescue when it was critical to huge files across the globe

Pros

I love how they send you notifications when your uploaded file has been downloaded by whoever you sent it to nd the fact that they allow you transfer really huge files.

Cons

Duration to keep files needs to be improved upon

### "Upload and send files faster than ever"

October 17, 2018

4.0

Pros

There are many file storage platforms like WeTransfer. But the best side and main difference of WeTransfer is that there is no disturbing ads or pop up windows while downloading files. I have tried many similar platforms to WeTransfer and once I came across even eight pop up windows while trying to download file. This is very disturbing and main reason of customer loose. My second reason of choosing WeTransfer was speed which amazed me while uploading. It uses all the resources in order to upload files in maximum speed. I strongly recommend WeTransfer to every kind of companies if they want reliable and efficient file sharing platform.

Cons

There are some features missing which I want to see in the WeTransfer soon. One of them and the most important one is collaboration feature which can save time and increase productivity in the company. And the other one is face recognition feature from photos which makes easy to organize photos.

### "We transfer is a great option for document managment"

June 28, 2022

5.0

It is a nice, intuitive app that makes your student life easier.

Pros

It's pretty easy to use, very intuitive. When I'm handling documents, I get really stressed out if I don't understand where they are, so I need a good intuitive app to manage them, We Transfer is that app.

Cons

I'm just not used to using it that much. I need to switch for it to be my main file manager.

### "Easiest tool for quick transfer of large files"

April 29, 2021

5.0

Our business often involves sending large files to our clients, or needing them to send us files. We've tried a few options over the years, and we often bump against clients who get frustrated at other tools. WeTransfer is simple, does exactly what it says it does, and does it easily.

Pros

It's so very simple for transferring large files - we often send large design or print files or photo galleries to clients or to vendors, and WeTransfer is just by far the easiest tool to get them over to anyone who needs them. It's also great as a tool to get clients to send us content - the easier the better, as many of our clients are not technologically savvy, and everyone seems to be able to use WeTransfer without many questions or issues.

Cons

It's just a one-time transfer, so it's hard to track if the client comes back and says they didn't receive the email. We have had to do some troubleshooting (usually getting them to look in their spam folder) but it'd be great to be able to have an account and log in and see all the transfers we conducted.

### "So easy to use"

July 18, 2019

5.0

Pros

It is so easy to use, if you download the app for Mac you can simply drag files to the menu bar and when ready a 'copy link' button will pop up ready for you to send in an email.

Cons

There isn't much not to like. The only think is I recently wanted to ask a question and it is quite hard to actually get in touch with a human.

### "Easy as pie"

January 13, 2022

5.0

Needed a fast and easy solution for sending files too large for emailing. WeTransfer solved those issues.

Pros

WeTransfer is the most user-friendly file sharing platform out there. It is great that the sender and receiver do not need a paid account or special permissions in order to access the files being shared. We rarely have more that 2GB of data to send, making WeTransfer our go-to option.

Cons

We have no complaints whatsoever. Having the download link expire after a week creates urgency. It's great!

Switched from

[Dropbox Business](https://www.capterra.com/p/143068/Dropbox-Business/)

We have run into problems with other file sharing platforms if the receiver doesn't have an account with that service or we run out of storage space and can't access files being sent to us. None of that is a problem with WeTransfer.

### "Easy way to transfer files"

June 1, 2021

4.0

Much faster and easier than any other platform.

Pros

It´s very easy to use. I share and send documents everyday with this. Upload speeds depends on your internet speed. Free version lets you upload up to 2 gb, which is more than enough for a lot of things.

Cons

When you open de page for te first time changing to the option of link is a little bit annoying. When using on mobile phone the upload glitches or cancels itself when the phone turns itself off.

### "Drag & drop & share"

January 2, 2023

5.0

Easy file sharing with notifications when your link is about to expire or when the receiver has opened it or not.

Pros

Simply drag and drop your files to share via email or a direct link. It's easy, fast and the UI is very nice. I like them showcasing different projects on their homepage to read while waiting for the upload (or download) to proceed.

Cons

It's sometimes a bit cumbersome to type in the validation code you would receive by email. Of course, this is needed to overcome spam and misuse.

### "Yes We Can Transfer Anything!!"

July 29, 2019

5.0

I really like wetransfer because of the easy to use interface. The download doesn't need an expert, just click the link, which is very handy when sending information for other persons.

Pros

Even the free platform is well constructed, with simple fields to fill. Only need to know what to transfer, from whom, and to who. Simples as that! Top free 2gb transfers...

Cons

The free version could have more than 2gb. Even for a free version, today's files (films for example) are very large.

October 5, 2023

4.0

Pros

WeTransfer is a fantastic software, It helps to share multiple files and big files. It makes work easy and comfortable. We can conveniently share the interface clarifying every detail on the screen. The premium option is a good fit for daily activities.

Cons

WeTransfer has many features. It has the least factor regarding cons, I'm totally satisfied with this software. The expiration feature needs to apply notification. and all the things are good.

### "" Sharing is caring " we transfer"

February 27, 2022

5.0

overall experience, overall satisfaction

Pros

WeTransfer provides a lot of features, but my favorite is the file sharing, which is simple and speedy. I recall the days when I had to upload files to Dropbox and share them with others anytime I needed to share them (especially large ones). WeTransfer made things even easier, despite the fact that it doesn't sound like much. Simply drag and drop your files into the browser, then make a shareable link.

Cons

I don't think there's anything about this software that I don't enjoy.

### "Amazing platform for sharing large files online"

April 18, 2022

4.0

Pros

WeTransfer is very easy to use. Anyone can easily send and receive the document shared by someone very quickly. We can also share large files using this tool.

Cons

The only drawback is the time limit of the document which we send to someone and after few days it automatically gets deleted and then we cannot download it. They should increase the time limit.

Amazing!!!! I have been using WeTransfer and will continue using it

Pros

I have to send mp3's and .WAV files so often. And a lot of the times revisions are required. Sometimes multiple lol. And with an account or no account. Paid or free. You can send files fast. And as often as you'd like.

Cons

I'd like the free options to have longer than 7 days before a sent/received file expires.

January 29, 2019

5.0

It is been a great experience since the same has not presented any issue at all. It is a life saver.

Pros

What I like the most is that it is easy to use, uploading and downloading a file is awesome, no matter the size of the file when downloading it never presents any issue. My team use it to receive videos which we need to see for some verification and using this software has made our job easy. When all of the other sharing softwares fail, we request WeTransfer and we can continue our job smoothly.

Cons

I don't seem to find any con with this software, as for now the same has not presented any issue at all.

### "WeTransfer - When you want to send files - big and small"

March 27, 2021

4.0

The integration is non existent. The browser is the interface. When logged in to the premium version you have the 20 GB transfer. In the free version a login speeds up sending files.

Pros

The fact that there is a free 2GB option is great. Easy to use and a no brainer. For bigger files and more functionality the paid version is available. We opted for that just for a couple of months but been using it for many years now. There is always a requirement to send files, big ones but also files that are now allowed by email software.

Cons

The free version has ads that can be a bit in your face. The 2GB limit requires chopping up files in smaller chunks with some compression software if you do not want to pay for the premium version.

Reason for choosing WeTransfer

We trans fer easy of use was key. No software to install, just a browser.
