### "We Transfer to send clients my designs"

August 27, 2021

4.0

I enjoy having this quick and easy options that sends files in an organised way. Probably the payed version is much better.

Pros

I like how easy it is to send large files. Very intuitive and clean.

Cons

I dislike the fact that the files get deleted after 7 days in the free version. I have had countless problems due to this. Without any warning as well.

### "Transferring files just got easier"

January 23, 2022

5.0

Keep it convenient and effective to handle file capacities under 2GB. Although it looks like there are a few annoying ads it doesn't matter.

Pros

As a designer who holds various positions in my own place of business, it is always easy for me to receive & send large files through the cloud system, files in the form of briefs and drafts from prospective customers, even large raw files. One of them is with the We Transfer service, everything can be easy and you don't have to worry about sending files, even close to a 2GB capacity, of course, it doesn't cost anything at all / free.

Cons

Of the many facilities and conveniences that We Transfer offers, there are a few things that make me less comfortable, namely the storage time limit is only 7 days in free mode. Yes, maybe a little complacent because too often enjoy the free. Besides that, the factor of busyness and delay in downloading files that have been sent by customers to me exceeds the maximum storage time limit.

### "Software indispensabile"

December 12, 2023

5.0

Utilizzo wetransfer da tanti anni, mi è venuto in soccorso in tantissime occasioni e ho anche diffuso il suo uso tra i miei contatti sin dall'inizio. Mi è anche capitato di utilizzare la versione a pagamento brandizzata per alcuni fornitori e trovo che sia un servizio semplice ma davvero efficace, semplice e utilissimo.

Pros

È uno dei servizi online più comodi e utili di sempre, mi ha sempre risolto tantissimi problemi di condivisione di file pesanti e invii massivi di file e documenti. Apprezzo particolarmente il fatto di poterlo utilizzare senza effettuare login o registrazioni.

Cons

Nella versione free ovviamente c'è il limite di 2GB di file trasferibili, ma devo anche ammettere che solo in poche occasioni ho avuto la necessità di inviare file più grandi o da non poter gestire in più invii.

### "The best free and fastest option to send files"

January 11, 2021

5.0

We send and receive files fast, in a secure way, without registration and using short links that makes it easy to download without copy pasting it. It's free, it's fast and it has a cool app called Collect that let's you upload files to your account.

Pros

WeTransfer is the best and most used method to send and receive files for us and our customers. We use WeTransfer for infected computers where we need to send files to one of our virtual machines to disinfect, check or decrypt, or send programs/drivers/packages from a computer to our customer's computer without having to connect to our internal network drivers (for security purposes). The thing that makes it easy and secure is that you do not need to register/login and the links of the files are very short making it easy to type it manually on the target machine.

Cons

I don't think that there is something missing from WeTransfer. Maybe raise the limit to more than 2GB, but hey it's free to use!

### "Excellent tool to send large documents"

September 29, 2021

4.0

Pros

That is does not take that long in order to send something. When I have a larger file and I cannot send it via e-mail, I just go to the WeTransfer website and within a minute the large document has been send. It does not need any experience or any long steps to take, since you can send it immediately.

Cons

I'm not exactly sure what they do with these documents. In some cases these documents are to some extent private, so they cannot shared with other people. Maybe they have to explain it more in-depth so people get more confidence in this tool.

### "An Excellent File Sharing Software!"

June 4, 2019

5.0

My entire organization uses this software for sending files. I think this is a very user friendly free service offerred to customers. Being the Senior Tax Manager, I have to share many PDF Files containing hundreds of documents of size hundreds of MBs and I always use WeTransfer for this purpose. Presentations, Videos of conferences and many workshops videos kept for record keeping are shared via WeTransfer only. A must have software. Gone are the days of USBs and Hard Disks.

Pros

Everything! I absolutely love this software. File Sharing is made so easy via WeTransfer. WeTransfer does not require any registration or signing up to do. The free version allows us to send up to 2 GB worth of data free to any email address. The recepient receives a WeTransfer link which he can download with in 7 days. Along with this, when the recepient downloads the files I sent, I will get an email notification making the entire process very reliant and safe. The 2 GB allowed in the free version is enough to send majority of our large files including videos and complete photo albums

Cons

I have faced a few problems in the WeTransfer mobile application while attaching large files but other than that I don't have any issues with this software.

### "A great tool to transfer files anywhere with ease. "

August 15, 2021

4.0

Overall this is the best tool around for sure. I have been using it in the office to send important files to the clients and team and it is very secure. The free version gives enough resources for primary use which is very helpful.

Pros

The interface is amazing and it supports many devices and operating systems. It even have and offline app and web-based application. We can transfer files, media with ease and a link can be generated and sent through mail to the recipient.

Cons

There is a limit to the size of files we can transfer. The premium version of this application is expensive. Sometimes when uploading or downloading big files, it takes a lot of time.

### "No pain while sharing attachments"

June 21, 2020

5.0

I use this almost every second day for work and this improves our productivity a lot. There is no match for this software. When it comes to sharing and transfer of files WeTransfer comes really handy.

Pros

Sharing assets for work or even with friends and family members is so smooth and easy. No need of logging in to your email account and also the limits of file upload and all the hassle of remembering passwords for email accounts are skipped with the presence of WeTransfer.

Cons

Thinking of a con is a little burdening because we get so much more available already in the free plan. The only con here would be if you need to keep the files available for download for a longer duration or upload an extremely huge file then we might need to upgrade to a paid plan which can be a little costly.

Hassle of logging in and out every time and also the deleting process of files of no use after a long time is overburdening.

### "No need to look for another option for your file transfer needs"

March 7, 2022

5.0

I have been using it extensively since its inception.

Pros

I have been using it extensively since its inception. Previously I was messing around with FTP or other options. However, such methods are no longer necessary. Even in the free version, it is possible to send files as large as two GB. In the Pro package, you can give your panel a much more professional look with particular visualization for your customer.

Cons

Although the price for Pro and upper packages are affordable, for all users, you need to create an account for all users. For specific users like customers, I want to create a free account to allow them to track their files. But it is not possible

### "WeTransfer is the fastest option to send large files. Only email is required to send files"

May 2, 2020

5.0

We are regularly using WeTransfer at the company I work for, so that we can easily share files, due to insufficient storage space provided by our email provider. The best thing is that it is not necessary to register on the WeTransfer platform, you only need to add the email address.

Pros

WeTransfer is an extremely simple and fast platform. The process to send the files is very simple, where you just have to add the email of who you want to send the files to. I find it very important that the files are only temporarily available. Also, the professional version has great storage capacity and good prices.

Cons

I would like an option to be implemented where the user could choose the estimated time that the file will remain on the platform, taking into account that the maximum is a few hours.

### "Excellent tool for sharing large files with my team members and clients."

October 3, 2023

5.0

Pros

As a project manager in construction, I have found WeTransfer to be an excellent tool for sharing large files with my team members and clients. The platform is user-friendly and easy to navigate, which makes it a great choice for those who are not tech-savvy

Cons

If the downloading or uploading process is interrupted, there are no resume options, and you need to start everything from the beginning, which can be inconvenient

### "Safe and secure way to send files!"

June 23, 2022

4.0

We have been using wetransfer to securely share large set of files when email or dropbox is not available. It has a hassle-free approach to transfer and receive files. Till date it has been my go-to software when sharing large set of files. The drag and drop feature makes the task even more easier for any user who is not even tech savvy.

Pros

1) No account required to send files 2) Simple and easy user interface 3) Large files can be transferred quickly 4) Notifications of files being sent and received 5) Password protection

Cons

1) In this day and age the file transferring size should be increased 2) Large files fail to upload if the connection is flaky 3) The deadline to download files should be increased more

### "Pretty straightforward - pretty buggy at times"

May 23, 2024

3.0

Most of the times it works like a charm but I've experienced some bugs lately. It gave me a lot of 'something went wrong' messages while trying to upload and loggin in to my account wasn't possible.

Pros

It's very easy, straightforward. Does what it says. LOVE the new 'pay before you download' function!

Cons

I would love to be able to add more branding in the delivery e-mail. Also, a lot of links expire and a funtion where the client could click some button to notify me their transfer's expired and they would like me to send it again would be great.

Reason for choosing WeTransfer

Smash was very slow, too slow for my liking

### "Review of WeTransfer file sharing software."

January 18, 2022

5.0

With WeTransfer, I don't have to worry on how I will deliver photos to people after a photoshoot. I also don't have to send each individual photos as just a single link will do.

Pros

I have been using this software to share photos I take of people, this saves space on my devices as all photos are stored on the cloud and I don't have to worry about deleting them as WeTransfer will automatically do that after a set deadline.

Cons

The software could ise some anonymous uploads without requiring users to sign up and buy a subscription and this would be great for one time users.

### "WeTransfer is an easy-to-use file transfer service"

January 5, 2023

4.0

I remember the first time I used the WeTransfer service. I had to transfer a large file to a colleague, from mail pro. The mail server refused to transfer the file because of the restrictions. My colleague told me about WeTransfer. The transfer was so simple and easy. Since that day, WeTranfer has become my number 1 file transfer service

Pros

I usually transfer most of my files by WeTranfer. This service is really efficient. The majority of mail servers limit the size of the files to be transferred. With WeTransfer, you can send a large file worry-free and without restrictions. In addition, its strong point is that it is very easy to use. No need to register (you can send a file up to 2GB). It has no restrictions; you can send all types of files, without worry. All you need is to provide 2 email addresses, yours and the recipient's and it's ok. I love how simple and quick it is

Cons

As for file transfer, I find it excellent. I don't have any recommendations at this time

### "Un herramienta indispensable"

August 14, 2021

5.0

La experiencia general es muy buena y útil de forma inmediata soluciona un problema muy puntual que es el compartir archivos y trabjos a todo nivel solo con un conexicón de internet independientemente del medio o computadora que uno esté usando.

Pros

E sun producto intuitivo y fácil de usar a todo nivel y satisface la necesidad de trasnferir archivos de gran tamaño, permite una interactividad muy eficiente entre el usuario y cliente, ya que el flujo de entrega de trabajos y distribución de archivos se facilita enormemente.

Cons

La parte que no me gusta es la limitación del espacio de transferencia ya que ahora hay archivos que pueden pesar más de 2Gb, sin embargo entiendo que quienes necsites hacer un uso más extensivo del software tengan que realizar un pago. otro aspecto es que si uno no está registrado debe buscar en el correo electrónico el código de verificación del envio.

Reason for choosing WeTransfer

POr su facilidad de uso y la forma intuitiva de y rápida de realizar los envíos

### "Easiest way to transfer huge files"

July 17, 2019

5.0

I really like WeTransfer. It is quick and convenient for us here at the studio to send files to clients and within the team. We alsways use the service and it is well integrated in our team's workflow.

Pros

The service is simple and easy to use: just upload your file and send! I like that you can use a link so it is convenient to share via slack or other messaging platforms. The files size limit for a free user is more than enough to cover one's needs; you can also transfer multiple files in one link.

Cons

One thing that doesn't help me personally is that there is a short barrier to use the app via Pop-up where it prompts you to use free or paid version. But at the same time it is just a quick "next click" and then you're off to send your files.
