Pros

“I liked Hightail's design, service, and storage/transfer capabilities, in addition to my using it as a backup or alternate to other programs; Hightail is reliable in this capacity, and I generally felt confident in using it--whether sending out or receiving.”

“The overall Experience was Good and I was able to share the large size files to others and the collaboration features are also good and you can also track your files and know when they were opened or downloaded.”

“There also appears to be an issue where the email notifications to recipients often end up not being delivered based on my experience, which is a minor issue when dealing with low volume usage.”

Cons

“Performance with Large or Complex Files: Sheets can slow down noticeably with large datasets, complex formulas, or heavy conditional formatting, which can impact productivity for advanced users.”
