Migrating to Google drive. Will never try WeTransfer again. > > Used to be good, now useless.... all they are interested in now is making money off the user. Wasted my time, has to stay on their page otherwise they stop the upload, then in any case stopped the upload at 98%. ----- ### "Great tool for sharing larges files\!" — 5.0/5 > **Hannah** | *11 January 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It was a very straightforward way to send people files of large size, too large for regular email. I also appreciated that it was not necessary to have an account, and that you could just send things without having to put yourself in a database. > > **Cons**: Well, I dislike that it stopped existing\! I also wish sometimes that the upload speed was faster but who knows if that's my fault or not. ----- ### "Long time user of WeTransfer here - and I LOVE it\!" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *12 August 2025* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have been using WeTransfer for many years now to send large video files of coaching sessions with my clients and I LOVE it\! I also highly recommend it to my clients as well due to its ease of use. The best part? It's FREE\! > > **Cons**: Nothing. I love everything about WeTransfer. It is super reliable and is so easy for my clients to download the large files that I send them. > > WeTransfer has saved me so much time, energy and frustration. Before using this app I used that other one (rhymes with "Gropdox" lol) and the difference is just unbelievable. For fast files haring it is the best\! ----- ### "Seamless experience sending and receiving large files" — 5.0/5 > **Oliver** | *08 July 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Really easy to use for someone who was previously unfamiliar of WeTransfer. I had no issues sending and receiving large files. > > **Cons**: Could argue it would be unfair to have to pay for a subscription upgrade to recover a previously transferred file. > > Delighted with my experience using WeTransfer. Sending and receiving large files at speed enabled a solution that would otherwise be a tricky to overcome on other platforms. ----- ### "Support team doesn’t help at all" — 1.0/5 > **Tijs** | *29 April 2025* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: I liked Wetransfer for a couple of years because of the easy way sending and receiving videos. But after a error, they let me down. > > **Cons**: The last weeks, i can’t send proper transfers anymore. I’ve tried everything but every time I send something, the file is corrupt. If I use a account of someone else and send the same files on the same computer, there is no problem at all. I’m in contact with the support team for more than two weeks now, but since five days, they don’t respond anymore and leave the problem as it is. I’m having a paid subscription so it’s really annoying i don’t get any help. > > The support team doesn’t help you when you’ve got a problem. As they can’t resolve a issue, they don’t reply on your mails anymore. ----- Page: 1 / 119\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/176600/wetransfer?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/176600/wetransfer) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
