Another useful feature is the ability to set how long the file will be available before it is automatically deleted. > > **Cons**: The tool has limited access under the free plan, which can be challenging compared to other tools like Google Drive. While it is similar to Google Drive, Google Drive offers a wider range of services. If all features were available for free, this tool could be even more competitive. > > It has been very good overall. I’ve really enjoyed using the tool, especially for sharing files with other organisations. I would rate it 9 out of 10. ----- ### "A Must-Have Tool for Every Entrepreneur and Coach\!" — 5.0/5 > **Christine** | *11 June 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: As a coach for entrepreneurs, I’m constantly sending large files — from video trainings to podcast recordings and media assets — and Limewire has been an absolute game-changer\! It's fast, reliable, and incredibly easy to use. No more frustrating delays or complicated workarounds — I can send huge files in just a few clicks and know they’ll arrive safely and quickly. > > **Cons**: There are truly no cons at all with LimeWire. I love this platform\! It’s fast, reliable, and incredibly user-friendly. Every file transfer is smooth and hassle-free, which gives me peace of mind — especially when I’m sending important content to clients or collaborators. I only wish I had discovered it sooner\! > > I love how convenient it is, and it's now become a tool I recommend to all of my clients. If you're a business owner, coach, or content creator who shares large files regularly, Limewire is an absolute must-have in your business toolkit\! ----- ### "🍋‍🟩cloud storage alternative" — 4.0/5 > **Isrohan** | *19 March 2026* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is a fast platform, you can upload your files and every upload will be easy to share or access from any device. > > **Cons**: It's not so friendly to edit the 'folders' that are created with each upload. The a.i. generative tool is just basic. > > It's interesting, the tier also gives you certain amount of credits to use for trying their a.i. image editing platform ----- ### "Limewire is the new king of file sharing\!" — 5.0/5 > **Daniel** | *29 May 2025* | Online Media | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The interface, speed of upload, ability to share a link before the files have finished uploaded, the dashboard, higher file l up to 200GB and 4TB of storage along with all the AI tools make LimeWire a much better Alternative to WeTransfer or other competitors\! It also has a crypto token called LMWR > > **Cons**: So far I have yet to find something I dislike. SOLID platform\! Only thing I can think of is it would be cool to see a map of the world and where the downloads were made from. > > The Limewire nostalgia is real and it's super cool to be using this platform from my teenage years again\! Who remembers downloading music from back in the day?\! the platform is solid, provides fast upload \& download speeds and tons of bandwidth for all my professional needs. I am constantly having to send large files of 10's of gigs to hundreds of gigabytes to my clients and this will be my new tool moving forward. ----- ### "The ultimate file sharing service\!" — 5.0/5 > **Krasimir** | *27 June 2025* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: LimeWire has 3 great advantages. 1. Very large files\! 2. Long time validity for the links. 3. Statistics for downloads. > > **Cons**: I don't really have something I don't like. The service is as good as it can get. Probably the credits can be a bit confusing for new users, but once you figure it out, it's easy to understand. > > LimeWire is very useful to me - often I need to send big files to clients or friends. Most of the times it's important to me to monitor if the files have been downloaded and how many times. Also the long validity time is super useful\! ----- Page: 1 / 19\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/525185/LimeWire?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/525185/LimeWire) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
