### "Send large files fast and free!"

October 24, 2020

5.0

I've been using WeTransfer for about 10 years to send large PDFs or batches of photos to clients. Always has been free and easy to use. Email verification is a welcome extra step for security. WeTransfer is the most seamless way to send/receive large files with just an email address.

Pros

WeTransfer is a quick and painless way to send/receive files without having to log in and coordinate cloud software access. Simply upload one large file or group of files and the recipient clicks on the emailed link to download the batch directly on their desktop without clogging up inboxes or cloud storage with attachments. Fast. Easy. Free. Done.

Cons

There's nothing to dislike. It's so easy to use and doesn't cost anything, how could you complain? Even the advertisement you're shown that pays for the free service looks classy and professional. Plus, it's harmlessly part of the background. No clickbait images or popups on here.

### "WeTransfer"

February 6, 2019

5.0

to send large packages of files, the best that exists online.

Pros

the easiest and fastest way to send large data packages, files, executables, whatever is large digital size, the free option allows you to store up to 2 GB, in the paid version allows up to 100 GB, you only want to have the mail of the detinatario, to which resibira a link to descragar, so simple.

Cons

When files are transferred, to the recipient in your email account, there is a download link, in the free option you have a short download time, if the recipient delays the link in April and descragar, when you want to do it, the file does not It would be useful if it lasted for more time in the free version.

### "Best for file transfer"

March 20, 2022

5.0

Pros

WeTransfer is the best option for transferring large files such as presentations, HD photos, and videos. It's pretty easy to use and you can also use it to organize your files.

Cons

If there's one thing that I least like, it has to be the loading speed. A lot of factors can affect loading speed and sometimes it may take too long to upload or download one video (it might be too heavy for the site).

### "Straight-forward, easy to use, does what it's name says"

March 17, 2022

5.0

As a freelance artist, it's nice to have a free, user-friendly option to share my work.

Pros

I love that WeTransfer has remained free for users. It is easy to share files and not have to reduce their quality or compress them too much. I like that the file size limit for free sharing is still a usable amount.

Cons

I don't think it is an issue anymore, but I used to have trouble sending files over a mobile device.

### "The best tool for file sharing"

January 22, 2022

5.0

I use we transfer frequently on daily basis thanks to its simplicity. Just upload and send.

Pros

transferring large files is no longer a problem. The interface is pretty good. It is characterized by high-speed download. You can assure that the recipient received the sent files.

Cons

The limit of the free version needs to be increased.

### "I love the ease of WeTransfer"

March 10, 2022

5.0

With a busy graphics department stuck inside Office 365, WeTransfer makes sending files internally and externally even easier.

Pros

WeTransfer makes file sharing easy and it always seems to upload and downloads files quicker than OneDrive.

Cons

It’s probably quite basic and even with a paid account you don’t have a long history of transfers.

### "Free plan is good for sharing"

December 15, 2021

5.0

Pros

It is really really easy to use. Just write emails, drop the file and it's done. Let it does the job. Upload speed is good, you don't need to wait long.

Cons

Generally 2 GB is enough but sometimes I need more space. But anyway, I am free user and 2 GB is perfect for free.

### "Easy to use, easy to share"

March 1, 2022

5.0

WeTransfer has given me the opportunity to send files to my clients in a more efficient way and makes it easier for people who do not frequently use a computer to download the files.

Pros

The simplicity way to share files, and keep your files nicely organized.

Cons

For free users, not being capable of sending files more than 2gb may be a problem.

### "Ease of File Sharing and Use"

March 6, 2022

5.0

Pros

It is amazing how I can use WeTransfer to share audit support and results with my auditees without the need of sending emails with heavy attachments. WeTransfer has conviniently resolved the issue of sending emails with huge attachments and avoids the chances of them getting lost in the clients inbox.

Cons

WeTransfer links has a limited time period attached to it. If a user does not access the link in that time period , the link and the documents on it get automatically trashed. I guess it is a positive in a way where data privacy is a top priority of WeTransfer for its customers.

### "2GB file uploads for free users."

March 2, 2019

5.0

Pros

What I like most on this app, It provides to free users 2GB file space for each file right away you get on the website. Just drag your file and wait till the end. That's all.

Cons

Generating a public sharing link is the greetest need. Also it would be better if free users can create a Wetransfer account.

### "Transfer files very easily and quickly"

March 12, 2023

4.0

I started using Wetransfer when I was denied sending a very large file from my email. I searched on Google and found myself in front of this little gem. Wetransfer is very practical and easy to use. Also, the file transfer is very fast. I recommend Wetransfer to those who want to transfer a file without breaking their minds

Pros

I love using Wetransfer because of its simplicity. No need to register, no refusal to transfer files for security reasons (even if it's still dangerous lol), possibility to send a large file in one block. It is easy to use. Not necessarily need to register. Just select your file to send and you send it. I used to use it to transfer large files that my email refused to send, but now I use it all the time. The paid version offers many advantages, such as keeping files sent, but the free version suits me perfectly

Cons

The security policy of the free version. Uploaded files are not encrypted

### "An Excellent friend for sharing larger file"

April 27, 2021

5.0

I do strongly recommend to use this software as it helps to share the files with 3P suppliers/vendors or someone outside of your organization in terms of bigger project brief.

Pros

I. Its totally free & no hidden charges II. Easy to use III. Larger files can be shared easily where Microsoft outlook cant come to help IV. Easy to download by the receiver V. Saves time and its reliable VI. Accessible from remote locations

Cons

Sometimes it takes couple of try to upload and download if the file is very large ( as it has some limits as well).

### "WeTransfer is the only way I send Giant Files"

August 27, 2019

5.0

Overall very positive experience. Many files transferred and received over many years.

Pros

You can easily upload and transfer large files across any email platform. Every time I need to send or receive a large audio file I use WeTransfer and or receive a WeTransfer. It's simple enough for non-computer users to click and receive the files. One button to upload and one button too download. Very easy.

Cons

The only con I can think of is that the links seem to disappear when I forget to download. I believe this is only when free users send me links. I keep them in my email and then forget to download and have to ask for the file to be resent.

### "It works well if you don't need to send files frequently"

March 3, 2020

3.0

I can recommend it for people who share large files infrequently, but wouldn't suggest it for people who send files daily or even weekly.

Pros

I like that you can send large files without worry about the upload failing, etc. since you will know if the email hasn't sent because you don't get the confirmation email.

Cons

It's clunky to have to open a website to send files. With alternatives, I just drag them into a certain folder in Finder and they're uploaded to the cloud – and the files never expire. On WeTransfer, files expiring after a few weeks is a big hassle.

### "WeTransfer"

September 19, 2021

4.0

Very good software for file sharing.

Pros

What I like the most about WeTransfer is the speed with which I can send my documents. It is also the ease with which I can do it. It is one of the softwares that I use the most when sending my work, videos or digital arts, to my bosses or clients so that they can have the works with the quality that I send them.

Cons

So far I have not encountered any problems with this software. If you consider the limitations you have when using the software in the free version, I recommend that you go to the paid version and you will not regret it.

Good, easy to use.

Pros

It's a free online tool that almost everyone can use to send large files.

Cons

I don't have any information about the security of transferring files and if my data is kept private.There was also a report about WeTransfer having some security vulnerabilities which haven't been picked up yet.

### "Whoever invented WeTransfer was a genius "

August 9, 2019

5.0

All I have are good words, thank God there is WeTransfer, would be very complicated to find alternatives. It is just simple and very effective. The projects made on AutoCAD, all of them I transfer using WeTransfer, it's a free e-post :) and most importantly it never disappoints you

Pros

So simple to use, I don't know if there is an option out there simple than WeTransfer to send back and forth large data folders.

Cons

For regular users, the transferred files are saved only 7 days but I guess whoever needs more time they simply can get a Plus account

### "I can send large files with ease!"

December 16, 2021

5.0

I had difficulties sharing large photo and video files since emails all have a small file limit. WeTransfer makes all my transfers easy!

Pros

There is a 2GB maximum file limit for each free transfer, even if you don't have an account. I use this to send my clients files all the time and they don't even need an account! My favourite thing is that I am also notified when they have downloaded the files so I know that they've been able to access it.

Cons

I wish that there was the option to include a password/key for files shared via link so that only people who are given the password can access it.

Reason for choosing WeTransfer

There is a large maximum file limit and this allows me to easily share files with clients in one go!

### "Absolutely love and recommend WeTransfer"

June 6, 2019

5.0

Overall a very positive experience! Highly recommend!

Pros

This is one of most easy-to-use and useful softwares out there. No account required, just drag and drop your files and enter your email and the recipient's email and you're finished. I've been using this software for over 4 years and I can't recommend it enough.

Cons

There is a limit on the amount of files you can send without a paid account, but that's barely a con. It's understandable that they need to charge to send large amounts of data.

### "Fast and effective"

May 9, 2022

5.0

Pros

When I think of WeTransfer, I imagine a product that allows me to transfer files quickly and efficiently. I love its ease of use and above all that it is accessible to any user without advanced knowledge of technology.

Cons

The only negative of this product is the bad management of the internet in low speed connections, because it causes the download of the file to stop repeatedly or even an error occurs and it is necessary to download the entire file again from the beginning. An optimization in that feature would be really amazing.

Switched from

[Google Drive](https://www.capterra.com/p/161425/Drive/)

I can save the file easy and free for a long time.
