7 reviewers had the following to say about Files.com's features:
Inexpensive file sharing with customers, for many of our users.
Pros
And we really like that customers can drop files anonymously.
Cons
You can send files to customers by sending links but unless you create user names and passwords for your users, you cannot share directories (at the time of this review anyway).

My experience with files.com I would say is good. It is easy to navigate and find what it is your looking for, I can link up other cloud apps for easier access.
Pros
I like Files.com due to all your files can be found in one place and you can link up your other apps from cloud to make your life easier.
Cons
The one thing that I did not like about files.com is to many notifications but at these times, it could be a good thing.

Overall my experience with files was a very positive one and I continue to use it for work.
Pros
The notifications with files also helps when you're working with others.
Cons
It can be rather difficult for a first time user with the files but once you get use to it and know what you're doing it makes using your files online easier.

used Brick to set up file sharing between partner organisations, and it did the job. left me scratching my head a few times early on though!
Pros
easy to use, quick running and good use of notifications/alerts.
Cons
a bit fiddly to get used to at first. not very intuitive for me as a first time user.

Pros
It is also very easy to use for a novice user but with the functionality desired by an advanced user.
Cons
There are few instructions for users to follow, particularly if they are novice users -- although the software is still great. I also did not like how the software is priced -- you could find an open source alternative that does much of the same thing for free.

Pros
We primarily use it as a way to store files for our clients who host our software "on-prem", and when we do upgrades, we send them files for the upgrade, and it is very easy to do this way.
Cons
We have had MINIMAL issues with this site/software and we have been using it since I joined the company 4 years ago, so probably 6+ years. I cannot think of any issues or bugs we have had. We do not use it extensively, it gets the job done that we need.

Pros
FTP program for transferring and sharing large files with customers and vendors.
Cons
FTP programs can be cumbersome with login and ftp information specifics and this program allows you to save this information, which is a plus.
