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. ----- ### "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\! ----- ### "🍋‍🟩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 ----- ### "Effortless fitness-video sharing with friends" — 5.0/5 > **Zsolt** | *2 July 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Huge per-file limit means I can upload full-HD workout videos without compressing; friends just click a link. Drag-and-drop UI is dead simple, and uploads resume if my connection drops. > > **Cons**: No native mobile app yet, so I still use the browser on my phone. Peak-hour uploads slow down a bit. > > I’ve been using LimeWire for about a month to share fitness videos with a close group of friends. We just send a LimeWire link and call it a day. If you regularly send large media files to a small circle, LimeWire Pro’s generous limits and clean UI are a solid upgrade—just expect the occasional slow upload during peak hours. ----- ### "File transfer made easy" — 5.0/5 > **Augusto** | *7 June 2025* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I found LimeWire when searching for a simple file transfer service and since then I couldn’t stop using it, LimeWire made my file transfer experience easier. > > **Cons**: I don’t have faced any problem with LimeWire yet, so no cons. Maybe the lack of ads to make me find it sooner. > > I have a combo of iOS devices, Windows, Linux and Mac, sometimes transferring files is a nightmare, but using LimeWire simplified so much this task. ----- Page: 1 / 19\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/525185/LimeWire?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/525185/LimeWire) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
