"It is an extraordinary and incredible self-management program"
What do you like best about OpenText Hightail?

As someone always looking for new forms of collaboration software, I was delighted to find Hightail. As expected, the tool has allowed us to form large, global workgroups and more negligible, specialized subgroups. In terms of aesthetics and organization, the interface is impressive. We manage all types of invoices and send them immediately to other organizations. We are delighted to have mastered coordinating secure and efficient warehousing across operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenText Hightail?

Since using it, I have found that there are functions that are unused and go unused, and I wish the program could be much better automated on some things that are used daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great platform for media & large file sharing"
What do you like best about OpenText Hightail?

Easy to navigate & share content with other teams easily. We need lots of large files to be seen and downloaded or shared with multiple teams and this is a good solution for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenText Hightail?

Sometimes the site can be glitchy so we have to use other platforms to share files or content with our teams. Limited number of member accounts also makes it a bit difficult for many people to login at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I've Been Using Hightail for Years"
What do you like best about OpenText Hightail?

I've been running a transcription business since 2006. I like to do this with little to no overhead. Hightail allows me to store and transfer large video and audio files for a very small monthly fees. I use it to allow clients to send large files to me and I also use it to schedule out files to transcriptionists. I love the spaces feature. This allows me to keep everything organized and comes in handy for invoicing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenText Hightail?

There really isn't anything I dislike. For a while, the phone app (on Android) didn't seem to be working well and that was a real bummer, but I have since then been able to get it to work, so I really have no complaints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Clean interface, easy to use/navigate. Easy to track downloads and visits."
What do you like best about OpenText Hightail?

Super simple to use, easy to track when files are delivered/downloaded. I use the express model, and if I need to see more info on sent items, I can go online and dig a bit deeper. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenText Hightail?

I wish the express version had better tracking info, but it's far from a deal-breaker. The product is great for my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy use, on paid plan you can work as team on a price so little, it's the best for work on big teams. Also the download and upload speed is great and free version let you to upload till 20GB, work on most browsders that i have work on, and also doesnt fall the Upload/Downloads.

As another atribute, you could use spaces, for don't mix the work with multple clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
