## Reviews

### "Frustrating Experience with Billing and Support" — 2.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *16 September 2025* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: TransferNow is useful because it allows you to send and share large files quickly and securely without needing a paid account
> 
> **Cons**: Once you have a paid account, the cancellation process, especially if you forget your password, is confusing and not helpful.
> 
> I’m very dissatisfied with my experience using TransferNow. I thought I had cancelled my account, but I was charged incorrectly afterward. When I tried to resolve the issue, I ran into several problems:&#10;&#10;- The support chat only redirected me to bots and FAQs, without giving me the option to talk to a real person.&#10;- I couldn’t access my account because I forgot my password, and despite trying multiple times, I never received any reset emails.&#10;- After countless attempts, I still had no way to log in.&#10;&#10;This experience has been extremely frustrating. Clearer cancellation processes, reliable password reset functionality, and access to real customer support would make a big difference.

### "Better services out there than TransferNow." — 1.0/5

> **Tajinder** | *27 May 2025* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Nothing. There are so many services out there that are better than TransferNow. There is nothing special this one offers that others don't.
> 
> **Cons**: In soite of buying their premium package, i was still unable to recover deleted files from TN. This is very disappointing. WETransfer is much better.
> 
> Terrible experience. Would not recommend this service to anyone. I wish I had used Wetransfer in the first place. Their premium service lets you recover files past the 7 day expiry.

### "Best source for sharing large files" — 5.0/5

> **Danish** | *19 August 2021* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The most importent feature of transfer now for me is the encryption of the software which gives protection to my files to be leaked or misused, the other thing is user friendly interface of the dashboard.
> 
> **Cons**: One thing which irritates me is sometimes the upload and download speed become very slow which takes allot of time on slow internet connection.
> 
> Overall experience with this sofware is good and will recommend others to use it.

### "Best transfer site" — 5.0/5

> **Kevin** | *10 February 2023* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very user friendly. Always consistent. Upload and download speeds are great. Files are easy to find later. Customizable notifications are fantastic.
> 
> **Cons**: Every once in a while there will be the random bug. However, they are always quick to find a solution and work with you to fix it. You also deal with real people, which I think is awesome.
> 
> I have been using transfer now for TransferNow since 2019 to send wedding video's to clients. It has been one of the most stable and consistent things I use. I would 100% recommend this to people that need to send large files to clients.

### "Best one for Large File Transfer better than WeTransfer" — 5.0/5

> **Muhammad Hassan** | *01 March 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's free feature offer enough functionalities that you can do a lot with it. If you're small business or individual, Free option is best. But for Large businesses who use it every day. It is better to buy monthly or annual plan. &#10;It has amazing UI and easy navigation. Not a problem if you want to use it in different languages.&#10;It is fully encrypted. You can easily drag and drop  Messaging is also supported.&#10;You easily send files to receiver via email or link. Files can be 4GB upto 20 recipients. Which is better than 2GB in WeTransfer.
> 
> **Cons**: Only 50 recipients in premium version? Why? That's not fair.&#10;While looking into more softwares we have better options like Dropbox and Google Drive.&#10;No App on Playstore. Totally Internet/web based.
> 
> Good experience as far as you don't need advance features like we need on Google.
