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. ----- ### "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. ----- ### "🍋‍🟩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 ----- ### "Is LimeWire for you ?" — 5.0/5 > **Alain** | *1 July 2025* | Computer Games | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: LimeWire is straightforward to setup. It does what it claims, make it possible to share large files instantly and it deletes it automatically later. > > **Cons**: LimeWire is limited to 4 GB in its free version, which by today's standard is low. In comparison, Google is offering 15GB. In addition, Limewire (in its free version) will delete your files after a week which is not the case for Google. > > I am very pleased with my experience trying LimeWire. It's my go to solution for "share and forget" projects with a short life span. ----- ### "Very Happy with LimeWire" — 5.0/5 > **Kelly** | *16 June 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: LimeWire is a fantastic tool for secure and easy file sharing. The interface is intuitive, and wireless transfers are a breeze, especially for large files up to 200GB. The AI tools, like image generation, are a great bonus for creative projects. > > **Cons**: My only gripe is the subscription cost can feel a bit steep, but the free plan is solid for basic needs. Highly recommend for professionals needing reliable file transfers\! > > Only took me about 5 minuets to be start using it with easy. Uploaded to ~ 350 mb videos to share with associates in my business.
