Wiredrive Review **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Motion Pictures and Film | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The features are great. The platform does exactly what it says it does. A lot of bells and whistles, but you don't have to use them if you don't want. And they're very quick to fix any issues you may have. I had an issue with their newest roleout of features. The email formatting came in wrong, and double spaced lines. I began a support ticket with them, and it was resolved within the week. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Because of clients running different platforms, it is hard for them to cater to all of them, but if there is an issue, they fix it promptly. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** I send out assets to clients daily, and Wiredrive is a charm to use this for. The formatting of the emails is nice and the team work with me to make sure that it looks exactly how I want it to look. They have a great support staff. Any issue I've had has been remedied quickly. ### 2. Wiredrive: The Way We Share **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Alexis R. | Creative Director, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The "Get Link" feature that allows me to just send a hyperlink in an email (without requiring anyone on the receiving end to need an app of any sort). Makes for such easy sharing. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** There are some limitations in terms of creating and organizing folders that are less instinctive than they could be. There are also some limitations in terms of sending individual pieces of media vs. folders. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** If you properly train your Wiredrive users, and implement a consistent system for using it, Wiredrive can be a completely effective and very very useful business tool. But the training is extremely important...make sure people use it properly and it will work wonders for you! **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Wiredrive solves the problem of sharing media with people in various places, many of whom are watching cuts on their phones or laptops, and can't deal with being sent something that requires them to download an app or a piece of software. We've been able to get answers more quickly by sharing cuts via Wiredrive. ### 3. Wiredive review **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Emily P. | Assistant Editor, Marketing and Advertising, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** It has a user-friendly set up. Easy to create links and generally navigate. Not confusing. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** The upload can be a bit slow for bigger files. Even something as little as 1-2gbs can take 30-40 minutes. It would also be nice to be able to upload whole folder without having to compress them. The "copy link" button was removed. As someone who creates and sends links to a lot of clients, that button honestly saved a lot of time. It's a bit inconvenient to have to highlight and copy the link. That button was just a great, easy to use feature. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** We're a creative company, so we have to send our content out to our clients often for them to review and give us back notes. We also have to deliver graphics to clients, which we use Wiredrive for as well. It's easy to create downloadable links for those clients. ### 4. Overall better than other services we have used. Lacking a few features we miss. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 04, 2017 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The stability. Not having to wait for a zip file to be created when downloading multiple files or full presentations. (Simian took ages) Audio waveform image. (Not available in Simian) Upload/Download speeds. (Much better than Simian) Wiredrive's reputation. Ability to play back video files with WAV/AIF audio streams (Simian was not able to do so) **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Not being able to re-order files/folders in projects. (Was able to on Simian and Ci Could) The presentation bundle layout. (prefer the format on Simian) Cost vs other services. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Not really sure how to answer this. I could help them with workflow tips I use or how it works, but in terms of "recommendations", I'm not really sure. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Sorry, don't know what to add here other than just the general file sharing for review / approval. The importance of a good service is reenforced everyday. ### 5. WireDrive Rewview **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Josh S. | Associate Producer, Public Relations and Communications, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 27, 2017 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I work in video production, and WireDrive was a great resource to share cuts of videos within my agency and to clients. The website was branded with our agency and had a very professional look. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** There were times that we were looking for old content/links and it was difficult to access things that had been moved or deleted. I wish there was a better archive process **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** WireDrive was a great resource in getting projects or pieces of projects approved. Our projects have many stages of approval they need to go through, and with just a quick upload and a few clicks later, we had a link to share with anyone we needed. ### 6. Wiredrive is great! **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Vincent T. | Account Executive, Marketing and Advertising, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I use wiredrive every day at work to package and deliver large files. It's quick, simple and effective. Many file sharing services are cumbersome or expensive, while Wiredrive has a simple interface and is extremely reliable. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Once in a while, when I'm simultaneously uploading multiple large files, the site may crash and shut down my browser. Additionally, it is a little hard to remove files from the wiredrive...it takes too many steps and clicks to get to that point. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Wiredrive allows me to deliver files to clients in a timely and efficient manner. It has benefitted our speed of work and efficiency. ### 7. Functional and reliable **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Aiden J. | Runner, Media Production, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I like the range of features wiredrive has to offer as it covers a lot of our companys aspects. It is laid out in a simple and easy to use manner. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Whilst simple and easy, the interface at times can feel clunky. Speed in searching through archive can sometimes take a little longer as it constantly resets itself to the first page and can lag, however this may be due to our content. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Full total solution. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** The flexibility of not only presenting work but sending it to be downloaded for clients with options for backing up work. ### 8. We'd be lost without wiredrive **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Madeleine B. | Associate Producer, Music, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The simplicity of the interface makes it so anyone can use it. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I'd like there to be a feature where you can see the emails you've sent in each project. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Definitely go with Wiredrive. It's extremely simple and foolproof. They customize the page to your business and saves tons of data for you. We love it! **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** We're able to share information with composers extremely easily. We use it to upload video, audio and other files for composers to work with. They can also upload their original tracks in the same place, which makes it very simple. ### 9. Video Editor's use of Wiredrive **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Dalan M. | Editor, Marketing and Advertising, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The interface and it's ease of use. It's easy for me to upload and share files and I get a notification when the link has been viewed. I know when and when not to bother the producers! **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I would like to see more analytical tools. So I can see how many views my videos are getting and which users are watching them and downloading the files. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Making files easily sharable with producers, project managers and account people is super helpful. Them being able to quickly and easily share work with clients is super helpful as well. ### 10. Wiredrive: great for tv cut reviews **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Michael H. | Post Production Supervisor, Broadcast Media, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Wiredrive is a great and secure alternative to the likes of YouTube and other similar services. Uploading media is also incredibly easy and fast. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Storage space limits can be annoying. When upload anywhere from a few megabytes to gigs in a month keeping track of space is the last thing I want to do with multiple shows. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Very full featured at the right price. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Wiredrive helped us to send out cuts in a timely manner without a loss in quality. The benefits are improved when using admin tools to track who's watching what. ### 11. Quick, Easy, and Comprehensive Data Sharing **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** C. M. | Interactive Communication Design Dep. - Digital Marketing, Marketing and Advertising, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 22, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** We can share all kind of files including large data file such as psd. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** - It would be better if we can put memo on the file. - It would be better if we can set a flag as a to-do **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** - Quick Data Uploading/Downloading - Easy Data Sharing - Easy Data Organizing - Useful for every kind of data files including large data such as psd **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** I'm managing sales promotion and handling some creatives. WireDrive helps me to share those creative data with team members working in New York and Tokyo. ### 12. Great for clients and rarely down, but needs a more versatile organizing interface and and API. **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Russell August A. | Assistant Editor, Media Production, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 25, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The client-facing presentation side is great. Easy for them to use and navigate. Shortened URLs are helpful. Upload speeds are fast, and the service rarely seems to get interrupted. While I don't personally use it, the system for creating reels and archiving finished work seems to work well. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** The backend system for projects is often very tedious to navigate. Creating folders within folders, moving folders, etc. ends up being very difficult having to click each individual file, navigate the (often times extremely long) dropdown menu. The dropdown menu grows exponentially in length when using subfolders and becomes extremely difficult to navigate. What would be a 10 second task in Finder becomes a time-consuming task on Wiredrive. Not being able to manually sort the files on a link is often a problem (we have to rename the files to have 1, 2, 3...). An API would be indispensable for us to create custom workflows. While it's nice that we are given the option to name folders however we'd like, 99% of the time we do the exact same thing. So automating that process as much as possible would save us time and cut down on mistakes with postings. We almost always create a folder with the date, a short description, copy the link, and write an email in our email client. An API would cut down on the repetition dramatically. API would need to be able to upload, create folders, and retrieve a URL for sharing. Maybe adding a password as well. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** We've been using it the same way for almost 10 years. Postings to client and reels. ### 13. Nothing but net **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Korey C. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 25, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** So far wiredrive has been a fantastic filesharing service for me. You can send links and even share it in a manner that keeps track of who views it, you can even set links to expire at a specific time. My company uses Wiredrive almost exclusively due to it's reliability. Recently, we started sharing the files in a specific way that allows us to keep track of who is viewing the content shared. Due to recent security issues, this helps us keep tabs on where the content is going, and therefore helps keep things under wraps. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** The interface could be a bit more streamlined, but I'm not an expert so I don't really have a good constructive criticism to offer. I believe one small complaint I have is that when I select an uploaded file to view it, I can't hit the "Back" button in my browser to return to the previous page. I have to press the "Back" button presented in the web page to actually return to the previous page without losing my spot. It's a small complaint, but something I always have to keep in mind. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** I have nothing negative to say about Wiredrive. Try it for yourself and I doubt you'll be disappointed. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** I work for a television company that mainly uses Wiredrive to share content and episode edits. I'ts been extremely reliable and we've never had a reason to use another service. ### 14. Wiredrive - An Odyssey **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Andrew S. | Post Manager, Entertainment, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Wiredrive is incredibly easy to use. Not only are our clients able to pick up the gist of it quickly, but training others takes very little time. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I really wish there would be an option to have files remove themselves from the server after a designated amount of time. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** I would highly recommend using Wiredrive as it can serve many needs including both media management and media delivery. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Using it to send video cuts to clients. It's fast and simple and most clients are able to view cuts quickly and easily. ### 15. Functional and Practical **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Broadcast Media | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** - easy to organize by projects - multiple ways to send files either via email or through wiredrive internal - accepts multiple format types - Multiple team members can be logged in at the same time - I can see how many files are in each folder - The best feature by far is that I can make changes to folders and projects even after sending them to clients. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** - For large projects, folder structure becomes annoying and hard to manage - Wish you could send through media through wiredrive that are password protected instead of just using a link. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** - easy to use and send all types of files and manage projects **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** - sending files to clients for download and review - requesting files from clients ### 16. Intuitive tool, love it **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Daniel K. | Director of Music, Marketing and Advertising, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I like the ability to share, share, share. And, I like the ability to share easily, on the go or at my desk. The ability to view on my mobile device was a GREAT feature. All in all I have used wiredrive for over 5 years and love where its at. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I wish there was a drag and drop order feature. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Use it! **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am able to share internally and externally very easily. We make A LOT of content that requires A LOT of approvals, internal and external. ### 17. It's an easy user interface but could use better functionality. **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Donald E. | Producer, Telecommunications, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 28, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Ease of use by creating projects and folder structures. Playback is great too. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** There's no way to add feedback in the links we send. It would be nice for the client or contractor to be able to pause in specific areas and create notes. Basically like Frame.io. Also, being able to transfer videos from the Projects side to the Library. Having to download a video and re upload to the library is annoying. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Much easier for our clients to review, faster turnaround. ### 18. Working with Wiredrive is a smoothe process **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ryan K. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The application is very user friendly and easy to use. You can add as many folders and sub folders as you like. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Some parts are hard to navigate. Its not immediatatley apparant, how to make seperate projects, or how to add people to you mailing list. This could be made simpler. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Yes I would. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** It's smooth and easy to send work using wiredrive. The benefits are being abale to control how the recipients recieve the work. What acess they have, giving it password protection etc... ### 19. Overall good experience with Wiredrive **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 28, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Super convenient & great to be able to control access by adding a password protected link. For the most part, ease of use. Anyone can access via shareable link. I like that you can share large video files. I also enjoy that recipients can preview material. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I think the way to create and move items around in folders is clunky and could be improved from a UX perspective. It was not intuitive until a co-worker showed me how to move items into other folders once I had created new folders. Also not intuitive on how to rename folders. If this were easier, I would have no hesitation in recommending it. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Ease of use for client review ### 20. Wiredrive Review **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Media Production | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Wiredrive is a great platform for showcasing your work. I like the Presentation feature, which allows you to fully customize your viewers experience. I also like that you have the ability to replace a video. Another great feature is that you can input metadata in the Library that allows you to later search by tags and team members. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** One thing I dislike is how long it takes Wiredrive to load pages when compared to other sites such as Box or Dropbox. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** At our video production company, we're solving the problem of displaying our work in a streamlined way. Wiredrive helps us do this from the onset of a project all the way to the exhibition of our final product. ### 21. Great experience for high quality video streaming **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Motion Pictures and Film | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I love the 720p, high quality videos that stream easily. The layout and categories/tags are easily discernible. Sending reels/spots is simple and easy to do. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I don't like that in gallery view there are only two categories available to see. When many people want to make reels, they enjoy the gallery view, but wish there were more content instead of having to switch to LIST mode which takes up way more of the page. Adding one more category to this would help immensely. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Definitely look into it, but the small amount of category options in GALLERY mode is a bummer. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Overall, it was exactly as we expected. We wanted a higher quality service for streaming and we received. ### 22. Dependable-User Friendly **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Quick and easy to use. If you need to upload a file quickly and be reliable, this is a great software to consider. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Sometimes it will not work properly when there are server issues (i.e. can't upload/make quick links). BUT their helpdesk service is quick to respond. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** it's a great software t use when you have many different projects going on at the same time and need it to be organized where anyone can login and navigate through easily. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** I have realized that when it comes to organize projects using Wiredrive, it's super easy and quick. Our department always needs speed and this is what I would recommend to people that are looking to send files quickly. ### 23. very easy to work witj **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nick A. | Creative Production Assistant, Broadcast Media, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Easy way to organize files within projects, and the ability to rename files and reorganize after upload **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Occasionally a compressed/archived file will be corrupted after it's downloaded on the other end. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** It's a great system that you should consider as a way to send small-to-medium sized files. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Faster/easier way to send out assets or reference files allows us to get info to the people we need more efficiently. it works better than our older system and we've had less hiccups. ### 24. wiredrive is okay but i wish the UI could be more intuitive **Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Edgar M. | Senior Designer, Marketing and Advertising, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** the pixel accurate preview for sharing digital content is great. and the quick share links are a better way for sharing content with multiple parties without having to zip or upload content to services such as hightail or wesent it. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** probably their project management / folder structure it feels a little dated and the UI for deleting, moving, and editing folders and content feels a little dated. it could be more intuitive **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our design studio is looking for a platform for sharing, and reviewing digital content such as online media internally and externally with clients. the challenge is probably that all parties do not necessarily utilize any of the in-depth features, such as approving or commenting tools. ### 25. An Excellent Tool for Professionals **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nicholas K. | Broadcast Operations Editor, Motion Pictures and Film, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 25, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I really enjoyed how easy Wiredrive is to use. The process of uploading files, managing content and creating links feels smooth and efficient. I also really like the Library feature and its presentation style links. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** The only issue that I've had using Wiredrive has been the inability to alter links that have already been created. If an expiration date has been set, that date and time cannot be changed. I'll have to create a brand new link and manually expire the old one. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** I think the major benefit of Wiredrive for my team and I is how quick we are able to distribute content to the rest of the company (or externally). Instead of having to create dvds/blurays or transfer files to hard drives, we can simply email a link and everyone is happy! ### 26. Production Manager **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Wiredrive is a great place to store all of our videos and create reels to share. The project section is also great to send out and transfer files while working on projects. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I wish there were an option to send a link for a single video in the library as apposed to having to create a new presentation to put the 1 video in then get link. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** This is a great "cloud-like" website that allows you to archive and share data throughout your group and with clients as you choose. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Again, this is a great way to constantly create custom reels to send out to clients and transfer data while working on projects. ### 27. Decent File Server **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Entertainment | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The ability to store large files on an external source. Upload tool is quick and easy to use. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** We have run into problems - primarily an older file showing up when it has been replaced with a newer file. I also feel that the user interface could be a lot more intuitive with managing and organizing. Once a folder is created, it is very difficult to reorganize the system at a later point in time. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** This product is definitely more geared for client review as opposed to being a true asset to inter department work thanks in part to it's difficulty in navigation at times. It is also difficult to trust the file replace when there is a chance that it would not actually be updated on the client's end. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** We're solving how to get large files viewable to our clients easily while also being able to track whether they have viewed it or not. ### 28. The RIght Idea, The Wrong Execution. **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I like that we use it as both a Works in Progress Review System, as well as a Spots Library for building reels. The UI is pretty straightforward. The UI is pretty straightforward. The UI is pretty straightforward. The UI is pretty straightforward. The UI is pretty straightforward. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I HATE how the two are so disjointed - we should be able to move in and out of the library and projects with ease, not having to download and re-upload the spots when going from WIP to Finished. There's a HUGE lack of admin tools, in terms of spot management and batch changes. There's a HUGE lack of admin tools, in terms of spot management and batch changes. There's a HUGE lack of admin tools, in terms of spot management and batch changes.

We're solving a works in progress presentation and reel creation, outward facing spots library. We're solving a works in progress presentation and reel creation, outward facing spots library. We're solving a works in progress presentation and reel creation, outward facing spots library. ### 29. Wiredrive Assessment Survey **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Music | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I work in music production and we yse Wiredrive as a project management platform. As a producer, I like that I can add selected users to have access to a specific project and use it as our management hub. We also use it to send presentations to client. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I'd like to see more in-depth data analysis for presentations. When a presentation is viewed, I get pinged. I would like to see a "download" alert added in the future, as a lot of presentations are downloaded by clients. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Wiredrive is my project-management hub - I use it every day and it plays a large role in the day-to-day productivity of my job. ### 30. Wiredrive is a crucial, well-designed tool that we rely on heavily. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The user interface is clean, simple, and customizable, which are all great attributes. The simplicity of posting or sharing a link is very helpful, and the ability to stay organized is great. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** The ability to edit folders isn't always clear- Ability to rename files should also be simpler. I'd love if there was an easier way to assign people to certain projects and consolidate one project into another. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are an advertising agency that does everything from broadcast ot digital, so we use Wiredrive to share roughcuts, deliverables, stills, etc. We share internally and with clients. It's so simple to help everyone review, much faster than attaching/downloading a file. ### 31. Using wiredrive has changed the way we manage communications with clients **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gabriela L. | Account Supervisor, Marketing and Advertising, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I like the very simple user interface and the possibility to have different projects saved and shared so seamlessly. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** sometimes it may take a long time to upload content. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** My clients are not able to open things like google drives / google docs or wetransfer so being able to give them access to the files they need via wiredrive has really change the way we handle communication and file sharing. ### 32. Wiredrive is a great program for sharing AV materials **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Christian S. | Theatrical Marketing, Entertainment, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Fast upload speeds, drag and drop, 1000x faster than regular services **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** For some reason my browser has the wrong password saved no matter how many times I change it Not so much a dislike but I don't really use the library function at all **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** recommend it wholeheartedly, several smaller boutique agencies have switched because of our recommendation **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** wiredrive took us from DVD's and flash drives to a full online system ### 33. A great app for media sharing **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Casey C. | Senior Writer/Producer/Editor, Marketing and Advertising, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Wiredrive allows a place for editors, producers, and project managers to quickly post and view videos with great frame rate and fast loading. It also makes it easy to review and collaborate on media. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Some of the controls aren't entirely intuitive - clicking on a video's file name doesn't take you to the video, it takes you to a pop-up box to change the file name. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** We pay by the GB, so make sure to keep your room clean! We have separate spaces for reviews and archives, so keep aware of how much space you're using. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Quick access across departments and employees (and across coasts!) to video. ### 34. Reliable Business Tool **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Motion Pictures and Film | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Wiredrive links work consistently across all desktop OS, on phones, tablets. I never hear that a client could not access material that I've sent them through Wiredrive. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** The interface is a little clunky. This is a relatively expensive subscription service, but it doesn't always feel like a high-end service when I'm using it. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** If you've used BaseCamp or Dropbox, but had issues sharing video content, then Wiredrive is definitely worth a trial run. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** I have many clients all over the country and I have a constant need for a reliable way to share and track the sharing of video content. Wiredrive has never let me down. ### 35. Wiredrive - Better than Most **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Motion Pictures and Film | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Good interface, feels like most file management systems. Easy to generate links and plays video back very well. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Iffy interface when it comes to moving things and doing anything in bulk. It is definitely not meant for quick work or for complex work. Best when making one folder at the root level. Also, bulk could be handled better. As it gets more crowded in your folders, very hard to clean up neatly. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** We use it for posting links of videos to clients and for that its one of the better systems I've used. I appreciate the customization, the smooth playback and the focus on what matters. ### 36. Pretty good **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I like batch assigning metadata to library clips. I like the ability to very specifically assign permissions for users. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I wish I had the ability to track reel viewing more closely. I wish there was a utility to compress and upload at the same time. Basically I wish it was Simian. Pending / batch could be more intuitive. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Closely weigh this product and its price and features with other vendors. It blows products like frame.io out of the water, but it falls short in features and price when compared to Simian. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Wiredrive is industry standard and basically a shorthand. Everyone knows how to use it. ### 37. Wiredrive...just okay. **Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Raul L. | Regional Program Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 28, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The ability to share projects with various users across the country. Having the ability to create user logins and share on specific projects is a benefit. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** It's not very user friendly. Wish it had more of a drag and drop functionality. You have to constantly refresh a page to see any edits. Also you cannot undue any likes or actions to photos. There should be some way to also move photos in libraries to projects; you have to individually download each one which is such a pain. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Being able to provide a way to share photos and projects with various users. ### 38. WireDrive Is a Savior **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Motion Pictures and Film | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** My favorite thing about Wiredrive is that it's dependable. I never have to worry if someone received my Wiredrive link or not. It's very efficient. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** It can be tricky to navigate within Wiredrive. When I accidentally put a file in the wrong folder, it's annoying that I cannot simple move that file to the appropriate folder. Also, I wish I could upload folders. It becomes an extra step when I have to create a folder within Wiredrive just to upload another folder on my computer. My workaround is creating zip files, but I'd prefer to just upload folders. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** I would definitely recommend Wiredrive. It's fast, reliable, and super easy to use! **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** It's great for sharing large files in a matter of minutes. I also really like the expiration setting where a link will automatically shut down. That feature has come in handy. ### 39. Wiredrive Review **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ryan L. | Production Coordinator, Animation, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** As someone who users Wiredrive daily in the post production world, it is extremely well set up and allows for easy transfer of important files. Rarely is there a "down" moment. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Only thing I would add would be the ability to change the link name to something custom, rather than the generated one. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are solving how to swiftly transfer files in a friendly, client facing manner. ### 40. Wiredrive continues to be immensely useful in my daily workflow. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nick P. | Sr. Director & Editor, Documentries, lynda.com, Internet, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 25, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Ease of use. Wiredrive is easy to upload, organize and send media to clients for review and delivery. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I've been using Wiredrive daily for a few years and because of it's simplicity and ease of use, I haven't found myself disliking anything about it. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Give it a try. It was easy for our teams to get on board and start using it right away. A must for video production services. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** As a production company, we use Wiredrive to ship video deliverables but also send files for review. We work on multiple projects at once, not just my team but a whole department of several hundred. Wiredrive makes it easy to organize for each team to work with it without confusing what and who's where? ### 41. Wiredrive is amazing **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Motion Pictures and Film | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I like being able to make new folders anywhere and easily move or delete items from anywhere in the project directory to anywhere else super fast **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** I wish the directory was integrated with the apple finder window structure a little more. It's easy to use but a bit closer to the apple desktop of my mac would be handy... It would also be good if I could drag whole folder structures into the drag and drop menu, rather than having to make new folders for each thing I already have folders and sub folders for on my desktop. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** It never let's us down and is a joy to use **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Being able to create, edit and customize showreels of commercials to share with agencies and also being able to share video and still reference files with cinematographers in pre-production... ### 42. Reps for Wiredrive **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Pamala B. | Brand Ambassador, Marketing and Advertising, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 10, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The UX is pretty good. And the search is quite fast. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Mobile access / layout. Not able to star spots that I always use or favorite. Titling hidden when there are more characters. Wish the preview text was something else. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** pls take out sourcecreative. they are awful. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** I work with 7 companies with all their own wiredrives. Wish I could toggle easier. ### 43. Wiredrive Review for a EPK and BTS Marketing/Production Company **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Entertainment | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Wiredrive is a great platform for displaying and sharing media to clients around the world. From a company's point of view where pieces from a multitude of editors and departments needs to post content for client's review, there are so many positives about Wiredrive. What I like best is how easy and straightforward the UI is - and the ability to structure folders and media in a way that mirrors our own infrastructure. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** There's not much to dislike about Wiredrive. There are times when it goes down and I have to use an alternative method to deliver media to clients, but that's usually rare. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Sign up!!!! **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Typically this product saves time and money as compared to using other alternatives of delivering content to clients. It's easy, straightforward and intuitive. Sign up!!! You'll love it! ### 44. This is my go-to. I use it daily for virtually everything. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Entertainment | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Wiredrive upload is super fast, reliable and flexible. Love the ability to create my own file name architecture. Love that it can be password protected and appreciate the ability to expire the links. I also really appreciate there are almost no size limitations. I have sent files from 3 mgs to 7 gigs. Fast upload and never an issue. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Although it's a very minor point - having to refresh to populate the uploads. Also, very limited ability to change project names. Going through the projects to delete old files is cumbersome. Doesn't playback overseas (we're in the US and frequently go to the UK for meetings where we have to send files via Dropbox) **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** If you want a really fast, easy, dependable file delivery method, go with Wiredrive. I have ftp partitions, dropbox, wetransfer and an Aspera account and Wiredrive beats them all for speed and ease of use. What's great is the recipient doesn't need a P2P connection, be in your 'community' or have a business account. You send them the link and they can see it. Only drawback is Wiredrive doesn't playback overseas. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use Wiredrive for everything - VFX shot approvals, sending spot links to executives, viewing only (no download) of confidential content to outside contractors, sending music cues to editors, sending large documents to Legal, etc. I truly mean I use it for EVERYTHING. ### 45. Clear and fast **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** AndrĂ© R. | Edit Assistant, Marketing and Advertising, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 10, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Creating project and then folders and choosing what to share within them. Getting links specific to an email address. Expiring a link. Thumbnail of the files in the email. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Browsing can be a bit difficult, especially if you want to rename folders or files. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Easy to use, **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Quick delivery of viewable files and packages ### 46. I use wiredrive to review in progress courses **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 22, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I like the simplicity of the user interface. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** You can't bookmark certain pages. For example, I would love to go to a certain folder and have it sorted by latest edits which I can't do. I would also like an easier to use mobile app. Currently you have to send a download to it, but I would prefer to simple experience to review videos. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** As just an end user, it works for me but I can't speak for the people who need to upload files to it. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** distributed team that needs to review videos. ### 47. Wiredrive Project Platform **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Shawn K. | Student, Higher Education, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** I like the ease of access that wire drive allows for project based work. Showing the members, titles, file versions and allowing for discussions, ratings, comments and last access feature allows for an incredible ease of access to manage work groups and projects. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** The format the files are displayed in are slightly in convenient. It would help to show the latest view, comment or remark on each project to get the overview on each file within a project. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** Excellent software for protected and systematic file sharing. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** No problems. Just daily work. Wiredrive works fantastic. ### 48. Wiredrive **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** David S. | Senior Digital Strategist, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 25, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** Links that can be sent to download/ review content directly on mobile, tablet, laptop, or desktop **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** The password feature does not allow for secure enough passwords. The upload and download time is significantly slower than most other FTP solutions. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Client communications across OS and PC and within difference browsers/ firewalls. This has been the most consistent way to share content. ### 49. In general I find that Wiredrive is straight forward and user friendly. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Entertainment | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The options for sending links to people is convenient and straightforward. I like that there are several options. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** In the past when we have had issues it has been hard to get an quick response, there is no one to email and contact via the contact form is not my favourite method of contact in situations when the issue needs to be resolved in a timely manner. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** Being able to generate links and send via email to anyone has been a great benefit, as it keeps all the replies on the same chain. ### 50. Could Be Better **Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Sports | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 25, 2016 **What do you like best about Wiredrive?** The website UI's dark theme of greys and blacks that match the rest of my dark themed apps. **What do you dislike about Wiredrive?** Upload and download speed is not consistent . I live in Europe and notice a huge decline in speed, from about 2 MB/s on my 150mbit connection, down to 300KB/s once America wakes up and is in peak hours. Interface feels a bit old. I'd like to see it work more like a web app where you can drag and drop files, rearrange the order on the fly, rather than the clicking and updating you have to currently do. Overall it doesn't feel as fast and responsive as Google Drive or Mega, which I prefer to use. Price... well actually I don't know how much it costs, but I remember it being overpriced when I used to work at an ad agency, and spending too much time constantly clearing out files because we couldn't afford to upgrade to more space. **Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:** I think Mega.nz is a lot cheaper, not to mention Google Drive which both have much better transfer speeds. Wiredrive is just luckily to be the first and get name recognition as the standard secure-video-review service in the video/advertising industry. **What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?** No problems that couldn't also be solved with Google Drive which I prefer more. ## Wiredrive Discussions - [Does Wiredrive integrate with Adobe Premiere?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/does-wiredrive-integrate-with-adobe-premiere) - 2 upvotes - [Does Wiredrive support foreign characters?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/foreign-support) - 1 upvote - [Does Wiredrive have an API?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/api-0aeee883-90ac-48ab-839a-61d687c08fd2) - 1 upvote - [Does Wiredrive have an app?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/app) - 1 upvote - [Can I use Wiredrive in China?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/china) - 1 upvote - [View Wiredrive pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/wiredrive/reviews?page=2§ion=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-07-10+13%3A52%3A10+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=3d0c6d55-7040-41ad-8ef1-114d80dff38b&secure%5Btoken%5D=c0f6bafe104717a8c223cf3bbd1ba051ee749767d9656eb8f845e53519f0ac2a&format=llm_user) ## Wiredrive Features **Interface and Performance** - Import/Export - Organizational Interface - Search - File Preview - Analytics **Customization** - Branding - Customizable Thumbnails - Custom Metadata - Annotations **Asset Management** - File Types - Metadata - File Transformation - Versioning - Expiration - Watermark - Digital Rights Management - Brand Guidelines **Organization** - Availability Scheduling - Workflows - Playlists - Deep Search - Analytics - Permissions **Media Types** - Video - Audio - Images **Agentic AI - Video CMS** - Autonomous Task Execution - Cross-system Integration - Adaptive Learning - Proactive Assistance **Administration** - Workflow Management - User, Role, and Access Management - Brand Portal - Integration with Creative Software **Agentic AI - Digital Asset Management** - Cross-system Integration ## Top Wiredrive Alternatives - [Brandfolder](https://www.g2.com/products/brandfolder/reviews) - 4.4/5.0 (1,371 reviews) - [PhotoShelter for Brands](https://www.g2.com/products/photoshelter-for-brands/reviews) - 4.3/5.0 (1,083 reviews) - [Acquia DAM (Widen)](https://www.g2.com/products/acquia-dam-widen/reviews) - 4.4/5.0 (619 reviews)
