Generated using AI

Last updated: Nov 04, 2026

What languages does Wiredrive support?

Wiredrive supports 1 language: English.

What company sizes and industries is Wiredrive the best fit for?

Wiredrive is most often used by small and mid-market teams, with positive experiences also represented in larger organizations. The industries with the strongest presence include creative, media, and entertainment fields.

Industry — Entertainment and motion pictures: Teams sharing video, edits, and production assets.

What customer support options does Wiredrive provide, and how do users find the overall support experience?

Wiredrive provides support through direct-contact and self-service channels, including email, phone, and a knowledge base. Users describe helpful, prompt assistance, although experiences with response and troubleshooting speed can vary.

What is the experience like for teams switching to Wiredrive from another tool?

Teams moving to Wiredrive have sought a more dependable, professional way to share and review media than they had with video-sharing tools such as Simian, Interdubs, and Postspots, or with FTP and general file-transfer services. The change is valued for straightforward client access, reliable playback and delivery, and a cleaner workflow for organizing and sharing work.

What features or capabilities could make Wiredrive even more useful?

Wiredrive could be more useful with smoother day-to-day organization and stronger visibility into how shared content is used. Recurring improvements users would welcome include:

Folder and file management: Make moving, renaming, sorting, and organizing content—especially in bulk—more intuitive.
Upload workflow: Simplify folder uploads and reduce extra refreshes or steps before files are ready to share.
Sharing analytics: Provide clearer, more detailed information about who viewed or downloaded content and how they interacted with it.
Library and project workflows: Make it easier to move content between projects and the library without downloading and uploading it again.

Is Wiredrive considered safe and secure for handling data?

Wiredrive is used to share sensitive media, and users value controls such as permissions, password-protected links, and link expiration. Some users would like stronger password options or more precise control over who can view shared material, so teams handling sensitive content should check that the available link and access settings meet their requirements.

"I (heart) Wiredrive"

4/5

What do you like best about Wiredrive?

I like that I can be shuffling around the reel while watching a spot. I love that I don't have to save the reel in order to not lose what I am working on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiredrive?

The tracking mails don't tell me where the person is viewing from like Simian does (it tells you a general area like a city). They don't alert me each time it was watched. I can't batch move items that are already categorized. For example, I need to move 400 .jpgs that were uploaded under a certain director to another "director" I created to house that project and I have to do it one by one. There isn't a Batch Edit. Just batch upload. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:

What I don't love is that I haven't seen many changes over the years. It seems to be the same and I feel by now they should have improved certain things to compete with Simian's great tracking system. But in general, it was always a great system. Pricing is also an issue. I use my own personal work on Simian because they offered pricing that was ok for me as a once every couple of month user because I use my client's systems much more than my own.

What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?

I sell my directors using reels I build on Wiredrive. It's an essential sales tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great online file organizer, slow streaming speeds and bad for mobile."

2.5/5

What do you like best about Wiredrive?

I like that I have a folder structure online that I can use to store and organize my files. I use video a ton and work in the film industry so I use lots of video. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiredrive?

I dislike that many times when I send I get complaints that it is very slow on mobile phones. I have also tried myself, and notice that it's not as nice as say a vimeo when it comes to online streaming via mobile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:

Great for online storage, but make sure you are doing your own file conversions at small bit rates so that you can easily access it with different internet speeds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?

Work in post production so am using it for reviews. But now seeing that the company 'frame i/o' is doing a better job for video reviews, because it is integrated with premier pro and has areas where you can add comments//markers and so on. It blows wiredrive out of the water for what I mainly need it for which is client feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Wiredrive is the best company for creating custom reels."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Wiredrive?

Having tried Simian and Interdubs, Wiredrive is the cleanest product out there for creating custom reels, even though the others offer other advantages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiredrive?

1. When I'm in a director's library, and I'm making a reel, if I scroll down quite a way and then click on a spot, once I click out of it, I am brought to the top of the library, instead of leaving me where I had been. This is very irritating.

2. Tracking the analytics is EXTREMELY important and arguably, this should be the most important thing for any production company (Simian is better at this). If I make a link for a reel that someone views, they might forward that link, allowing other people to see that same reel. It would be great to know which views are from separate IP addresses (i.e. other people). So, if I made the reel for "Jane" and I look at the analytics, it might seem like Jane has seen the reel 4 times, with some individual spots seen once, others 3 times, etc. But if Jane saw all the spots 100% and she then forwards the reel to two other people (let's call them Bill and John) and Bill saw some spots only 20% and only one spot 100% while John saw some spots 50% and no spots 100%, it would be helpful to know that different IP addresses saw the spots that way instead of being given 3 views at 100% (since the 100% was generated by Jane while Bill and John only saw the spots partially). This is far and away the most important piece of data that I can get-- and if any other production company does not see the value of that, then they have no idea which way is up or down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:

Wiredrive is still the best/cleanest service to make and distribute custom reels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am able to send/share work/reels at ease. I can easily make changes to reels, even after I sent them. The analytics allows me to see what works and what does not work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good at what it does but leaves lots of room for improvement"

3/5

What do you like best about Wiredrive?

It's very secure. I don't feel like anyone will easily be able to hack into our assets. Also, the support team is very helpful and quick to respond. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiredrive?

The interface is clunky and unintuitive. I think the clients find it intimidating and don't really utilize it the way we'd like them to. I ended up making some tutorial videos to try and help which I shouldn't have to do with a product like this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:

Based on my research, this is the best option on the market, but it's still a wide-open market so hopefully they continue to improve, otherwise I would bet that some other company will come along that truly excels at this particular service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a way to house all of our client's deliverables and stock media assets so that the client could easily organize and find files, and then share them with us for use in current projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Would never manage without Wiredrive"

5/5

What do you like best about Wiredrive?

Wiredrive is our go to way to share files with our many clients. It's very easy to manage projects, files, and their security. I like all the options that wiredrive has in terms of notifications and reports. It's super easy for our less than tech proficient clients and layout is customizable and professional looking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiredrive?

Sometimes the reports on usage are off. There is not much else. Wiredrive is so easy to use for us and our clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?

The biggest problem it solves is helping us gain future work. Thanks to the Library function we can store a lot of past projects and then when we get a call about our capabilities I can easily create a custom presentation for the new client. That single task used to be a huge chore and take a great deal of time. The other wonderful feature is that it is incredible easy for our clients to view the work on any device anywhere and anytime.

"Quick and easy way to get client feedback."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Wiredrive?

What I like best about wiredrive is it's commenting system. Upload a video and add comments with direct links to time stamps of where specifically the comment is referring to saves me time. I don't have to scrub the timeline to find what my clients are referring to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiredrive?

Updates and uploads. I dislike the dedicated popup window for uploads. I would rather have it where I am uploading directly to the folder I am in already. Also for any kind of update you need to refresh the page in order to see the change. Occasionally the comments entered break html coding and you can see the source code in the comment itself; minor glitch I'm sure just more difficult to read the comments when it happens. Would also like to be able to easliy drag and move files in and out of folders with the mouse instead of select and choosing where to move through dropdowns as it is now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:

Consider this product for video comments alone. Excellent way to obtain client feedback as quickly as possible without confusion of email strings and lost comments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?

The business problems I am solving by using wireframe is break down of communications. For instance lost requests and comments through email are no more with direct feedback from on specific projects right in the wireframe environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Wiredrive"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Wiredrive?

I like the uncomplicated view of wiredrive. It has nice clean lines and is easily organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiredrive?

I do not like that while in wiredrive I can not pick a still frame of the video. I have to export a frame and then save it to wiredrive. It is 1 extra step that it would be nice to not have to do. Especially when you have to do it 42 times for 1 post. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:

I would recommend them. There are changes coming in the pipeline that sound very promising to help achieve our goals. Again, it would be really nice if there were a few features that as a post house we use daily were implemented but hopefully that will be soon. I would tell who is looking at them that customer service is awesome. They answered all of my questions and are extremely helpful when first starting out. We have not had any issues since then. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?

This is super helpful when creating specific reels. It solves the problem of posting our clients videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Wiredrive is a decent tool for viewing videos with your team"

3/5

What do you like best about Wiredrive?

I like that wiredrive can act as a central hub for all of my teams video projects. It is great that it automatically lets everyone appropriate know when a new video is uploaded, so everyone can stay up to date and know they have the most recent video cut. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiredrive?

Sometimes I get too many notifications and don't know why. When someone watches a video posted, I'll get a random email that I don't want. Not sure if I can turn this off. Also, sometimes the videos don't play randomly and that gets annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wiredrive:

Make sure everything is labeled well- it can be hard to find the project you are looking for sometimes. I often go folder to folder until I find the correct file- their search feature could be improved a bit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiredrive solving and how is that benefiting you?

We make sure the people who need to see our videos get to see them. They are notified when a new video is up and we can all see that they have been notified. Makes people more accountable for their action. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Angela Forsyth of Wiredrive

Hi Jeffrey,

Thanks so much for the feedback. I run our Customer Success team here at Wiredrive- we’re the group responsible for anticipating your needs and ensuring you get the most out of the product.

Regarding notifications-- yes! You are able to to do just that. When sending a project as a "Getlink" or using the “Share” option, just un-check the "Notify when viewed” box. We'd be glad to walk you through it, as well.

Regarding improved search— we are currently exploring this, and your Customer Success Manager can definitely let you know when search improvements come to fruition.

I’m shooting you an e-mail directly to put you in touch with your CSM. He’s your go-to resource for trainings, workflow needs, and product suggestions.

We do have a separate Support team available on-demand for quick questions, and troubleshooting, plus a Help Center. Click “Submit a Request” here to reach them: https://support.wiredrive.com/hc/en-us/

"Wiredrive Review"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Wiredrive?

It is simple to set up. Creating reels and sending them is a perfect way to show your material to clients and I believe this company does it very well. I also like how you can see how many times clips or reels have been viewed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiredrive?

The cost. Starting out as a business, this is a pricey expense. It is worth it, but the funds have to be there in order to invest in this program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
