Lucid link
What do you like best about the product?
LucidLink makes remote collaboration effortless. The ability to access large files instantly without downloading them is a game-changer, especially for teams working with video, design, and other heavy assets. It feels just like working off a local drive, even when you're halfway across the world. The real-time syncing and file-locking features also prevent version conflicts, making teamwork much smoother.
What do you dislike about the product?
While LucidLink is great, it does require a strong internet connection to function seamlessly. If your connection is slow or unstable, you might experience lag or delays when accessing files. Also, the pricing can be a bit steep for smaller teams or solo users compared to traditional cloud storage options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LucidLink eliminates the need for constantly downloading, uploading, and managing massive files. Instead of waiting for transfers, I can start working immediately, saving hours of wasted time. It also makes collaboration with remote teams much easier, ensuring that everyone is always working with the latest version of a file. This has significantly improved workflow efficiency and reduced frustration when dealing with large assets.
Everything about LucidLink is easy
What do you like best about the product?
From sign up to collaboration, everything about LucidLink is thought through. I initially started using it as the company I work for used it, but now I wouldn't be without it. It was easy to get set up and join an already established group, and now I use it every week. And of course, it makes my life as a creative so much easier!
What do you dislike about the product?
No bad bits from me so far, but I am yet to use their customer support so that's one thing I can't comment on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
An easy way to store share and collaborate on files. Saves long download times and file packaging.
Fast and Easy Cloud Storage
What do you like best about the product?
LucidLink allows me to work directly from the cloud without needing to download files first. This saves a lot of time, especially when dealing with large media files. The speed and stability are impressive, making it a great tool for remote teams. Additionally, the security features ensure that files remain safe, which is a big advantage.
What do you dislike about the product?
The initial setup can be a bit complex for users who are less tech-savvy. Also, the pricing might not be ideal for smaller teams or freelancers. In some cases, performance can depend on internet stability.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LucidLink eliminates the need for slow file transfers and local storage limitations. It allows me to work on large files directly from the cloud, ensuring that I always have access to the latest versions without delays. This improves workflow efficiency, saves disk space, and makes collaboration much easier, especially when working with remote teams.
Great quick access video storage for video editors
What do you like best about the product?
I like that the other party can start editing as soon as you start uploading. This is really great. The pricing is also not to bad, although not cheap. We still use LucidLink classic as that seems to be cheaper for us
What do you dislike about the product?
For Mac you need to go to the BIOS to change settings when using LucidLink Classic, which is not so great. I believe this has been fixed in the new LucidLink.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working with multiple people on the same files, without the need of downloading them before starting editing. Also storing the data safely and still have it quick accessible
Don't know how we existed before LucidLink
What do you like best about the product?
Our post production team's workflow is based entirely on LucidLink. I can't imagine going back to the dark ages before Lucid. It allows anyone on our team to open anyone elses project and take over when necessary. Remote team members no longer need to be shipped drives. It performs beautifully. It's amazing really.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing. I really have no complaints I don't think.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Remote workers, collaboration. We love how anyone in the world can open any project file we give them access to.
Fast and reliable cloud storage for professionals
What do you like best about the product?
Seemless integration into my OS providing reliable cloud storage for my business needs
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that I need multiple cloud storage services, using dropbox, google drive, icloud, lucidlink, frame.io, backblaze and more. Would be great if lucid provided the same functionality of all of the above so I could stop using them
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use lucidlink to power Postlab.io e
I obsessed with Lucid Link
What do you like best about the product?
I switched to Lucid Link around April 2024, and it has been a GAME CHANGER for my team and I. Between editing photos and videos and managing social media, it's so lovely to have access to all the files from any of our computers and to have changes almost instantly on every end. I recommend it to all my friends. Their customer service is incredible, too. I once had a few questions, and they got on a Zoom call with me and walked me through everything in real time together, which was very appreciated and helpful because I am more of a visual learner.
What do you dislike about the product?
It felt a little daunting and scary to set up. In the end, it wasn't bad, but I remember that being something that at the time felt annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is wayyy better and faster than google drive. It gives my team the ability to work from the same files seamlessly and make changes that can be updated quickly.
LucidLink solves the issues that were causing us problems
What do you like best about the product?
I haven't had to worry about what is cached on my computer at any given time. When we used Google Drive befoore this, I was constantly struggling to have the right things cached on my local drive. I spent a lot of time trying to manage that storage, but there were a lot of things that it wouldn't allow me to manually adust. I wouldn't have the files I needed, so I would have to re-download them, which was a huge waste of time. And then my cache would get overloaded with things that I didn't actually need, which would cause trouble for other things I was trying to do with my computer. LucidLink makes it easy to have the right things available on my computer at all times.
What do you dislike about the product?
It took us a little while to get our filespace up and running. We took a couple missteps, which created some confusion. So it was hard to be confident in our setup for a little while.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a small team of video producers, and LucidLink allows us to all have quick access to the files that we need. We work in a variety of locations, with a mix of in-office and at-home. Wherever we are, it's quick and easy to upload files so that they're available to everyone. And we don't have to worry about caching or downloading things ahead of time. It allows us to work quickly and flexibly. And we avoid big stretches of downtime from downloading or uploading.
Started out great, but degraded quickly
What do you like best about the product?
The original premise of LucidLink was very promising. A CloudNAS that was easy to use and reasonably affordable with powerful features. There wasn't anything like it in the market.
A good sign of a good product idea, is that it didn't take long for copy cats to emerge.
It was a great solution for easily sharing working files between remote team members, usable enough for non-IT specialists both in setup and everyday use. No storage limits, good speeds, pricing reasonable for cloud infrastructure.
Also built a great community and engaged considerably, you felt like a valued customer.

What do you dislike about the product?
Unfortunately it didn't last long. This is an infrastructure product, and it needs to be stable and reliable. When you build post production workflows around it, you want it to just work for quite some time.
Before too long there were impactful pricing changes and constant software upgrades. Then there was a massive unprecdented 3 day outage that had global impact on the whole industry. While they worked fast on rebuilding their infrastructure, questions remain on what went wrong.
And recently yet antoher massive software upgrade, this one even more disruptive. New version doesn't have feature parity and pricing became unfavorable. The legacy version was hard to find and felt abandoned, some part of it was disabled under questionable circumstances. Communication was hap-hazard and left the sense of lacking true transparency.
As a longer term customer, it became obvious I was no longer in the market segment they were focusing on, and moved on.
Not an infrastructure provider I would trust. Which is unfortuante. Itstarted well, but went downhill most of the time I used it.
