"Effortless Large File Transfers, Exceptionally Smooth Experience"
What do you like best about WeTransfer?

Transferring large files is simple and smooth, with no lag or complications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

When I tried to retrieve an expired file, the system did not display the original link but instead generated a new one. I once needed to prove that I had transferred a file, and although I had a premium membership while my colleagues did not, the link I retrieved and shared was completely different from the original. This made it impossible for me to demonstrate that I had actually transferred the file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless File Transfers with Unmatched Simplicity"
What do you like best about WeTransfer?

This has to be one of the easiest sites to use for file transfers. For both the sender and receiver, it's as simple as a couple clicks, whereas competitors require so many steps on the frontend to get your files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

For the free version, the short lifespan of a link can be frustrating if the receiver doesn't download their files in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

That the free version is only 7 days and limited to a certain size but understandable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Gone are the days of WeTransfer"
What do you like best about WeTransfer?

The interface is easy to use, and the experience is relatively seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

How can I intentionally encourage clients to use WeTransfer knowing that I'm subjecting them to terms and conditions that require relinquishing their rights to their content? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Sharing large files doesn’t have to be complicated—at least not with WeTransfer"
What do you like best about WeTransfer?

In my work with academic documents and audiovisual materials that can’t be compressed, what I appreciate most is how WeTransfer preserves the original quality every time. I also love that it lets me track who’s downloaded what and when, plus the option to password-protect files for extra security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

That said I wish some of the best features—like advanced tools—weren’t locked behind a premium subscription. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Scammy billing practices"
What do you like best about WeTransfer?

I guess their service works? But just to download files from a client, I was forced to sign up for a PAID plan...! Not off to a great start... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WeTransfer?

Their billing practices are a borderline scam. Nearly impossible to get a refund, had to jump thru many unnecessary hoops (no refund button, had to EMAIL support, re-enter my customer info and cc info, upload a PDF receipt...and then they emailed me again, asking for the same info AGAIN!). Just refund my card on file, how hard is that guys?? Intentionally made difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
