Particulary, I have log file of who accessed what. I am located in EU and my files containt personal information it was really important to be sure that my data is kept within EU. I also like options to customized my sharefile experience which helps my client orient themselves more easily. At one point we also used ability of sharefile to create custom web forms for uploading, and that was a huge time and resource saver too. > > **Cons**: In almost ten years of using ShareFile I never had a single issue. There were few points in time when I had to warn my users to update their software, but web access was always there. > > If you have ever used dropbox, gdrive or onedrive you will find using sharefile easy to use. Major difference is that this product is built with multiple users and clients in mind from day one, while other mentioned products are meant to be single user products which have option of sharing documents under particular conditions. If we put security and audit ability aside (which are important to my use case), second feature really worth mentioning is practicaly unlimited ability to create clients who can access your shared resources. In my opinion (and research), there is nothing quite like it and ShareFile is great fit for my use case (and priced competitvely too). ----- ### "Used to be a great product, it is getting worse with every update" — 2.0/5 > **Mario** | *14 September 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: I used to like the fairly seamless integration and unlimited storage when I signed up. It could sync across users and devices very well an sharing with clients was also easy and auditable in terms of access control and visibility. A lot of those pros. are no longer there or have been eroded. Customer support are perhaps the only saving grace, when you eventually get through to them. They have tended to take ownership of issues and followed up appropriately every time. The fact they actually phone you to explain or check exactly what the problem may be is unusual and hugely positive. In that, they seem to care about their customers. In the functionality of the product, much less so. > > **Cons**: It is getting worse with every update. Half the time it does not sync across devices and users and requires saving a document in a different location or with a different name before anyone else can see it. Sometimes it does not even sync on the same device: I go to windows explorer and the version of the file I am working on has disappeared. The fact that, by stealth, they moved from "unlimited storage" as standard to 1TB per user (only unlimited in the sense you can buy extra space) is offputting. That they make out it was always that way is just insulting. At the current offering, we would never have signed up. There are better and more integrated platforms with more attractive pricing options. The repeated change of name is embarassing. Choose one and stick to it\! "Offline files" are not really offline. When you first switch on a computer, it needs to have a connection to the internet before you can access offine files, which entirely defeats the point. Plus they are not normal files you can access like any other without the app, as all other cloud storage, unless the app is running, they are not accessible. Indexing within Windows environment, whether online or offline files, is slow, really slow. A search within sharefile, unless you go via the website, takes forever and half the time does not return results that are clearly there. Imposing 2-step authentication has also been a pain. However much I disable it everywhere, I constantly have to reenter domain name, email and password, plus wait for a code. Had to do it 3 times on the same machine today, > > Used to be very positive, now I have nothing much positive to say about it, other than their customer service. The failed syncs are inexcusable and make the product virtually unusable. We are now looking into alternatives and have not moved to new providers just out of inertia rather than anything else. ----- ### "Share file is better now than when it was with citrix" — 5.0/5 > **Tarek** | *19 September 2025* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to use , the support is very responsive and helpful Value for money and it has large storages > > **Cons**: It has bugs that sometimes it is very slow and sometimes users are not able to login The storage could be faster > > It is good experience , I would recommend using it specially the cloud storage which facilitates the communication ----- ### "Secured Sharing File and Reliable" — 4.0/5 > **Liberty** | *22 October 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It was not pricey and the customer service is excellent and can be linked with our Microsoft Outlook which makes very handy, also knowing it makes secure file sharing. Requesting a signature is easy to use. > > **Cons**: Users (clients) had hard time to use especially to non-techy users. And the document upload sometimes feel a bit slow, especially when handling large files. > > It is reliable for sending files (secured) and receiving large or confidential files. It got more room for improvement. ----- ### "Technically mature and secure product, customer service ABYSMAL\!" — 3.0/5 > **Doc** | *25 February 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: ShareFile security \[256-bit AES\] is top-notch and was the selling point for me to switch my practice over to it. Integration with both Mac OS and Windows made it a practical solution. > > **Cons**: - it does not integrate with virtual machines - there is a lag while sending out email in Outlook; not really sure what the connection is between ShareFile and Outlook - Customer service leaves a TON to be desired > > The product itself offers a mature, secure cloud solution for document management. Recent customer service experience \[Feb 2025\] has been abysmal\! I tried changing the terms of my renewal and literally spent a day trying to track down someone, anyone, to assist. By the time someone responded, the product had renewed with no option to change. Suffice to say we are moving away from it. Get your act together, CISCO/Citrix, or whoever currently owns/manages customer service and support. ----- Page: 1 / 19\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/1046517/sharefile?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/1046517/sharefile) ## 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
