Hassle-Free Fast Large File Sharing

File sharing refers to the process of transmitting or distributing digital files from one user, or device, to another. For more in-depth information please check out "What is file sharing and how does it work."

1. Select the files or folders you wish to send by either dragging and dropping them or utilizing the "Add Files" or "Add Folder" buttons.
2. Provide both your email address and the recipient's email address to send large files through email. Alternatively, opt to receive a shareable link.
3. Verify your choice and upload the files by selecting the "Send" option. To ensure fast transfer rates we'll upload them to the closest secure Filemail server.
4. After hosting your files on our secure cloud storage, we create a link and dispatch it to your designated recipients. Alternatively, you have the flexibility to share links to the files you shared.

Sharing files and folders with our file sharing service is as easy as sharing files. When you want to add folders rather than individual files, you just drag and drop, or select the folder you want to share. After uploading the folder to our servers, we will promptly notify the desired recipients via email or provide you with a shareable link.

We upload files to servers in your region, ensuring the fastest transfer rates and compliance with regional legislation. With a paid account, you have the flexibility to store your files in a region of your choosing.

Your ISP defines the maximum speed you can attain. However, this speed is often the potential theoretical maximum that doesn't take into account real-world conditions. These conditions may include the number of people sharing the internet connection with you. Other conditions include the number of other apps within your local network using the internet, and regional traffic conditions.

What can also slow you down is the connection used by your browser, which is a TCP-based connection. TCP will not utilize your full bandwidth, and it has some processes that can further reduce transfer rates.

If you want to achieve blistering fast transfer rates, you should use our UDP-based desktop apps. They will allow you to utilize your entire bandwidth. There is a setting within the app that enables you to configure how much of your bandwidth you want to use. However, consider that sharing an internet connection, network, and regional traffic conditions can still limit your transfer rate. For more information about the differences between TCP and UDP, check out our page on UDP Transfer Acceleration.
