WebDrive Makes Cloud Storage Easily Accessible

PROS

With more of my clients wanting to store data in Amazon S3 and other S3-compatible stores, I needed a way to access the data without using the Console. I had TNTDrive installed, but I needed to upgrade and it does not work on a Mac. So, I tried many products and settled on WebDrive primarily for cost as well as ease of deployment on PCs and Mac.

CONS

The only challenge for me is that there are different connection paradigms on PC versus Mac. Adding a network drive versus mounting a volume. That's not really a complaint per se, rather a personal challenge of moving between platforms multiple times during the day.

Reasons for switching to WebDrive

TNTDrive will not work on Mac.

Best, most feature-rich cloud-drive tool I've come across

Makes working with cloud and local files a lot easier. I's all withing a few clicks way. Want to copy some files drom OneDrive to Google Drive? Just cop and pste from Windows Explorer and you're done. It's pretty great.

PROS

I found out about WebDrive because I searched for a product that supported a wide rage of cloud storage services. I'm using it to mount my Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, STACK (WebDAV) and internal FTP server. Setting it up is easy and works fine. When you want to go deeper, there's a lot of options to tweak and improve performance. Overall, I'm very pleased with WebDrive.

CONS

The plethora of advanced options are a little overwhelming, and the manual isn't too clear on all of them. Lucily, Support helped me out with the few questions I had. The advanced options are a must if you want to improve performance, because Windows isn't too.. keen on a Google Drive drive, for instance. You'll want to do something with caching and other tweaks.

Vendor Response

We are sorry that you had trouble with configuring advanced options. If you have any suggestions for improvement, please contact sales@southrivertech.com. We also have a library of videos that may be helpful to you. They can be viewed at: https://webdrive.com/video-tutorials/. If you have any suggestions for additional videos that may be useful, please do let us know!

Licenses only last a certain amount of time

PROS

Worked fine until I had to reinstall it and it states my license expired.

CONS

You pay the full price for a license and if you have to reinstall or upgrade after a year it expires so you have to buy it all over again. They used to have a flat price for the software, but now they force you to pay for maintenance support which adds an additional 50% to the cost. They care more about the profits than the customers now.

Vendor Response

Sorry for the confusion. You are always able to download the version that you purchased, whether it is the current release or not. You are not required to renew your maintenance and support- you only need to renew if you wish to download the current version or would like access to our technical support ticketing system. You can easily renew maintenance and support unless your license is a few years out of date. We did recently add the requirement to buy maintenance and support due to a flood of support requests during the pandemic from people with no support. It creates a bad customer experience when a customer needs help and we are unable to help them. If you ever have a question about the software or our policies, you can contact us through support, chat, or email and we're happy to assist or get you access to the previous version that you purchased. We are sorry for the misunderstanding.

Product assistance

[SENSITIVE CONTENT] at WebDrive was very prompt in responding to my issue & very helpful in helping me to isolate the point of failure. We have used this product for some time in our small business & it just plain works for us. Very intuitive interface.

PROS

The UI on the software is very intuitive and easy to use. The product works, assuming what you are mapping to works.

CONS

When attempting to map a Synology NAS folder as a drive, we experienced a failure. Failure message was not sufficient to isolate the point of failure. Not sure if any improvement in failure message could be made. Point of failure was with Synology product.

Reason for choosing WebDrive

Ease of use compared to other products

Very good for SFTP connection!!

I molecular simulations. These are computationally expensive simulations and hence can only be done on university high performance computing servers. I frequently have to do data analysis with the data obtained from these simulations and hence WebDrive becomes immensely useful here when working remotely.

PROS

I have extensively used this software in my grad school. My research involves computer simulations and hence I am able to use SFTP connection to my university account where I run simulations and store data. Using WebDrive has been a blessing as I can update my simulations and extract data for analysis remotely and this has been specially useful during visit to another cities for conferences. The syncing of the new data is also excellent with WebDrive. I highly recommend this product.

CONS

Nothing really. I have used this product without any issues.
