"Secure encrypted sharing with reliable desktop sync and granular link controls"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Tresorit?

We use end-to-end encrypted “Tresors” and password-protected sharing links every day to secure our private API keys, database dumps, and sensitive client configuration files. This has saved us at least 4–5 hours each week during third-party audits and internal security compliance checks.

The desktop sync client runs quietly and efficiently in the background and stays reliably synced across our Windows and Mac workstations without noticeable lag. The UI is intuitive and straightforward, so new engineers can start using it from day one without needing a lengthy onboarding process.

One unexpected workflow benefit has been the ability to apply granular controls to sensitive links shared with external contractors for example, setting expiration dates, limiting how many times a file can be opened, and disabling downloads. These controls help reduce the risk of our internal IP (intellectual property) being leaked. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tresorit?

When I upload large, raw database backup files (over 15–20 GB) that require end-to-end encryption, the client-side CPU usage spikes significantly. It would be really helpful if the desktop app included a simple slider to control background resource throttling or bandwidth prioritization, so I can keep working smoothly on my system while those large backups are being processed.

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

Previously, we had major difficulties sharing sensitive files across our team and with auditors. We often ended up manually creating encrypted ZIP files and password-protecting them, then sending them through standard cloud storage services, which was cumbersome and easy to get wrong. Now, with Tresorit’s zero-knowledge encryption architecture, we can sync sensitive production credentials directly into secure folders and keep everything in one place. As a result, our security compliance preparation time has dropped by 60 percent. On top of that, by reducing legal exposure and the potential fines tied to data breaches, this approach has produced a clear, positive ROI for our security budget. Most importantly, it has taken a constant weight off our application developers, who no longer have to worry as much about file security or navigating complex compliance protocols.
