Very reliable and fast
WeTransfer performs well for me when used for uploading to an external server. It supports collaboration and large file uploads and sharing between our own servers and those of others. We're particularly fond of WeTransfer for generating assets for partners, vendors and clients.
PROSA limit is imposed for file storage up to 2GB. This is superior to what other free file hosts allow, as I don't know much about hosts that allow storage up to 1GB. No registration. My recipients can upload their own email addresses, add themselves manually, and send me the finished file. No registration or lengthy wait for approval is required; they simply upload and send. WeTransfer enables you to check whether the file has been opened and whether the recipient has read it.
CONSLarge uploads may fail unless your network is unusually strong (e.g., you have to pay for a premium account). The Password and Expiration date features of WeTransfer are not exclusive to the Paid version of the app. Chrome can be a bit quirky during the uploading process - at times, the process may take more than one attempt.
Reason for choosing WeTransfer
Several big files have to be transmitted, which consist of high-resolution images that we sell. This is the lifeblood of our business. We depend on Dropbox, but other businesses collaborate with companies like WeTransfer. It seems most helpful when dealing with a larger company that has a robust firewall and will not allow users to get behind the firewall and run software like Dropbox.

Limited Features for Free
Overall, I would rather use Dropbox or Google Drive for sending files, for the simple fact that the files are not automatically deleted from Dropbox or Google Drive after a certain amount of time. I would much rather be prompted to delete a file myself to clear off space on a host site or app than lose a file simply because 30 days have passed. This is a surefire way to lose something important that you forgot to back up.
PROSWeTransfer is definitely user-friendly and easy to use, but only for very simple file transfers (2 GB or less). The user experience is pretty straightforward - upload a file, input the email address you want to appear as the sender of the file (usually your own, but can be any email address), and input the the email address or addresses you'd like the file to be sent to. It's a very quick way to send files if you're looking to do so at a moment's notice.
CONSThe least helpful feature of this software is that files that have been sent via WeTransfer expire after 30 days, and after that 30 days, the sent file(s) are no longer accessible, and can no longer be downloaded. This is an especially frustrating feature as an employee of a media company, who constantly needs to ensure that footage is not deleted or lost. For anyone who always needs a backup of a backup, I would not recommend using WeTransfer.

Fast transfer without email colapse
I'm happy with WeTransfer; it does precisely what the name is.
PROSFast, Fast, Fast, Fast, Is too much repetition? No is fast, and don't have storage space problems that I face when send big files by other apps (emails, chat, etc).
CONSI think that is fantastic. They also have a free version that is very powerful too.
Reasons for switching to WeTransfer
Support to send fast large files. I can't believe the performance that WeTransfer has.

Great website
It lets us transfer huge amounts of files to customers that are way to big to be emailed. It literally takes 2 min to complete the process, very easy to use even for the average user. If not for a website like this the customer would have to drive to us and grab a memory stick or vice versa. Saves so much time.
CONSThere is no cons to WeTransfer other then if you need to do more then 2gb of files I know of another website/company that lets you transfer 4gb for free.

PROSThis server is simply a wonderful an very useful way to share files online. Literally, helped me a lot because there are files that I cannot sent by email and here is when We Transfer appears to solve the situation.

The only way to send files.
My overall experience with Wetransfer has been above average. We have tried to use similar platforms, but they just don't compare to the ease of using Wetransfer. We receive and send confidential auditions everyday and I feel secure using Wetransfer. My favorite feature is the detailed list of files you have sent and those that are still in need to be transferred. This feature helps keep me organized when we are downloading hundreds of auditions. I also love that he saves my previous send addresses. This makes sending files fast and accurate.
PROSIn my industry we receive and send large files all day. Knowing that your computer is safe from viruses is invaluable. The safety associated with Wetransfer.com is the biggest pro in my opinion.
CONSWhat I like least about this product others love. I'm not a fan of the tracking of the file you send and the notifications when it hasn't been downloaded. I find this feature to not always be accurate and it causes me a lot of headaches in having to explain this to my actors.
Reason for choosing WeTransfer
The ease of use without having to install additional software was one reason. All my agents can use this easily was the second reason. Ease of use overall.

Simple and straightforward file sharing platform on cloud
Overall wetransfer is great tool if I nned to tranfer a file quickly to someone for a limited time as they auti delete files adter 24 hours if you have signed up. As a team lead I need to send files everyday and hence wetransfer helped me to do it quickly.
PROSI loved the interface as its really easy to understand where goes what. Also when you upload a file, its automatically get added with instructions onin file manager. I don't need a account if I want to share files under 2 gb so anyone from anywhere just upload the files and share link with anyone.
CONSThe limit of 2gb for free accounts and expensive upgrades for storage is making this bad option if you are using it for bigger files.
Reason for choosing WeTransfer
Other option that I searched for have compulsory signuo policy to use their cloud sharing platform. Wetransfer don't have this limit results into easy adoption.
Reasons for switching to WeTransfer
Google drive is much better option but you need to sign up everytime if you're using different devices. Wetranfer eliminates this hurdle with no signup transfer utp 2gb files.

PROSFree for files up to 2gb (most files I send are below this). I also think this is great for sending stuff to you self
CONSthe file limit is the only con but its not really a con because it covers the majority of the files I send

WeTranfer review from me
WeTransfer's developers have evidently given much effort to how to deliver a stripped-down UI with only the most essential features and no-frills. It's fantastic. I use the paid plan with a login so that I wouldn't have to prove my identity every time, and it's effortless. I receive a log of when clients downloaded things, and it fulfills all of my requirements.
CONSWeTransfer used to be capable of transmitting to more than three emails at once, but that is no longer possible and i had to do it in multiple batch for it. It's a tad inconvenient, but given the service offered, it's still a fantastic option and the cheapest option for transferring a large files over the cloud storage.
Reasons for switching to WeTransfer
The recipient of the files will need an sharefile account to be able to access to the files that i am sharing.

WeTransfer : Powerfull and Feature Rich Application.
Overall its a great platform to use . There can be slider like option that you need more days or GB. WeTransfer if the perfect tool to manage and share your document over the cloud. One can access the files over the mobile and thus it is the greatest feature that you have the big files of many GBs in your mobile. One can simply share the link and other can able to modify and edit the files making it very easy tool to collaborate with the users . USP of this application is its capability to securely transfer your large files in few seconds securely.
PROS1. Its all about transferring large files over the web protocells. 2. Easy to upload and download the large files
CONSLimits to upload the GBs can be more while we can compromise with the number of days for which the link is valid.
Reasons for switching to WeTransfer
Google Drive is also great feature rich platform but in that case one need to manage the folders to share and you need to delete the folders once done. Using We Transfer all these hassles are not there.

The benefits of working with wetransfer is the ability to send files in seconds, have an e-mail that confirmed your sending & an alert when the other person dowload the files. Intuitive, fast and easy.
PROSWetransfer is a site or app that is easy to use and super accessible from all kind of users. You can send any tipe of file (jpg, pdf, videos & much more) in seconds to multiple e-mail or accounts. The coolest feature is the verified download in real time when the other person has dowloaded your file.
CONSI think the app is a great way to send any type of files and I don’t find anything that could be better. There are plenty of options for sending bigger files & anything is well explained.
Reasons for switching to WeTransfer
Dropbox for some users it’s a little bit “difficult” as a concept to understand. Before wetransfer I sent dropbox link and I didn’t know when the files were download or not causing a lot of space occupied by those files. With wetransfer I don’t occupy too much space and I have an actual confirm of the other person downloading the files I’m sending him/her.

WeTransfer review
We use WeTransfer a few times a week at least. We never got failed transfers. It has very user-friendly web interface and easy to use even for beginners.
PROSWeTransfer is one of the most popular file sharing service. We use it to share huge files with our customers. Paid WeTransfer account gives up to 200GB per file to upload and 1TB storage per team member. WeTransfer servers offer very fast speed of data upload/download, has many useful features like password protected transfers, tracking downloads, editing the transfers, limiting the transfer lifetime, etc. Even the free version of WeTransfer with 2GB limit is valuable solution to share files (it's not required to register in free version).
CONSThere is not a lot of negative facts to say about WeTransfer. Maybe one of the main problem is high price of WeTransfer Pro version. Also it would be great if Free version offers higher file size limit (3-4GB is not a lot nowadays) with limited lifetime.
Reason for choosing WeTransfer
We consider WeTransfer as more reliable tool to share large files.

Wetranfer changed my way of transferring files!!!!!!
When I say that I change my way of transferring files I don't lie like when a medicine actually heals you but immediately, it was always the most cumbersome task to find easy and agile methods and when I discovered wetranfer I definitely felt comfortable, even when I speak in the Cons above section does not seem to me to be negative things if not ways to find new ways to develop the site, advice as a user that would be incredible will take the time to read
PROSIn principle I started using wetranfer because of my need to send files quickly and easily, the first thing I liked about this page was that there was no need to register to use it and I could use 2GB in my favor, I also liked the fact that I could send the file through a link or an email and that in this one I will be notified when the other person arrives and also what allowed me to keep track of my files, I also loved the innovative platform, sometimes it was not only to enter and send a file if every so often there was a work by some new artist and that generated curiosity to know it, apart from being a very practical page I like the concept it handles, from the clouds I think it is one of the most avant-garde platforms for I still use that. Definitely, these types of pages are excellent because they are not limited to entering and registering to be able to have access if it is not at the hand of those who need it, for me it is always important to be able to count on practicality
CONSOver time I realized that I wanted to have an account, but it did not leave me if it was not premium what disappointed me a little, another thing that I did not like was that I tried to send the link to another person and that the access was totally public, there should be some kind of encryption to protect the files because it could be exposed to fishing.

Perfect file sharing software
We transfer is extremely easy to access and has solved a lot of the problems that would arise regarding file sharing. It's got a reasonable limit on transfers and I use it on a daily basis sometimes more than 10 times in the day. Being able to have a link that can be easily circulated is a huge positive of this software. I would recommend this software to any one who has to share files regularly because the pros outweigh the cons in a significant way
PROSIt's perfect for the use i have. In my company we don't have a internal server, hence file sharing is difficult. We rely mostly on emails but that limits data sharing to 25 MD. Which when it comes to design is not much while transferring heavy software files. We transfer allows us to transfer these files, to each other and printers easily. It's also convenient to be able to transfer folders instead of individual files. Additionally 2GB is a good limit for data. And it can be used multiple times during the day. Love the way they feature artists and lists on their page so, you're occupied while you're waiting for your files to transfer.
CONSFiles only remain for 7 days. Some important files have to be resent again. It takes very long at times to transfer files. Inspite of the internet speed.
