Streamlined Workflows and Exceptional Support
What do you like best about the product?
I like using LucidLink for faster workflows, including real-time access for multiple people. It's great to start working before a drive even ships, which helps us collaborate with global partners and meet deadlines. I also appreciate the security with end-to-end encryption. Setting up LucidLink was amazing because their support team made it seamless.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing yet!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LucidLink for faster workflows with real-time access. It reduces shipping, saving time by allowing work before drives ship, aiding global collaboration. It integrates securely with my partner's software through end-to-end encryption.
Revolutionizes Remote Video Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I love LucidLink for video editing projects because it allows real-time collaboration. Assets don't need to be downloaded multiple times, and I can join someone else's project without having to reconnect and search for files. Plus, there aren't multiple versions of project files scattered in different places, which prevents confusion. The initial setup was also very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Caching could be a bit cleaner of a process. Right now it feels a little confusing, and it would be better if the files were actually local when needed. Also, the lack of ability for anyone to upload files to LucidLink from a web interface is a huge loss and should be made a feature ASAP. I'm still unsure why LucidLink can't send invites to new users, it doesn't seem any less secure to have LucidLink send the links rather than forcing myself to send them. I've had some issues editing multi-tracking video projects. That might be a limitation of the file format, but that process was painfully slow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LucidLink solves issues with remote collaboration by allowing real-time collaboration, eliminating the need for downloading assets multiple times and reducing confusion with different project file versions.
Secure, User-Friendly File Management with Seamless Remote Access
What do you like best about the product?
The platform is an ideal tool for most organisations because it offers secure file management, with zero-knowledge encryption that ensures complete privacy, control, and confidentiality when accessing sensitive data files. The software also impresses me with its clean interface, so users face little to no steep learning curve and can use it easily. In addition, its stability in handling heavy files and its seamless remote access help keep work synchronised effortlessly each day for modern distributed teams worldwide.
What do you dislike about the product?
One downside of the platform is the lack of a built-in cloud backup feature, which would make data protection simpler and minimise the extra effort required to manage backups externally. Even so, it’s a significant tool for real-time access to complex files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucidlink addresses the problem of slow, cumbersome, and insecure file sharing by providing instant access to large files, enabling real-time collaboration, and ensuring complete data privacy through zero-knowledge encryption, which helps keep work both safe and efficient. The platform allows users to streamline workflows by keeping assets in a single, unified place, and it safeguards the file system so users can access what they need easily while restricting resources to authorised individuals only.
Professional grade cloud file sharing system.
What do you like best about the product?
It's professional grade speed and rock solid stability is the most important, combined with a comprehensive permissions system, making it perfect to run very large folder structure in sync on the cloud without having to set up a full server and the maintenance related to it.
The cache synchronisation strategy is brilliant and allows for optimised workflows where certain files are always on, critical for certain applications that assume instant access to a pool of files.

What do you dislike about the product?
So far I love it and can not find a fault.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Shared folders with very large number of files, fast enough to allow teams to collaborate.
Centralized Raw Assets Hub That Replaced Our External Hard Drives
What do you like best about the product?
It has helped our creative team have one centralized place for raw assets and have eliminated the need for external hard drives.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have some trouble linking on our in office firewall connection and sometimes IT has difficultly loading the platform with our MDM platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creative collaboration, streamlining workflows and helping put taxonomy and structure to projects, draft and final files.
LucidLink has been a game-changer for our team of over 25 editors
What do you like best about the product?
I use LucidLink to streamline editing for our streaming show. I love its real-time collaboration and file sharing features, which are incredibly helpful for syncing premiere production projects with a large team of editors across the US. Managing over 25 TB of data and 45 days of footage for a docuseries is a lot easier with everything in one place, which is a game changer for collaboration. The initial setup was super easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Filespaces crash sometimes, making all the footage pinned get lost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use LucidLink for real-time collaboration and file sharing, which streamlines editing for our streaming show. Managing over 25 TB of data across a large team of editors is made easier, keeping everything in one place is a game changer.
Solid System with Key Integration Drawbacks
What do you like best about the product?
I like the way LucidLink mounts as a drive and think it's fairly easy to use. It's a nice easy system to use. The initial setup was good, very easy, and it's easy to roll out to new people. That's all good.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have a fundamental problem with LucidLink because we have not been upgraded from the initial release. As early adopters, it feels like we're being punished because we haven't been transferred to the new system, which means we increasingly can't use the functionality. We don't have single sign-on or two-factor authentication, so we're being left behind. Also, we want to use LucidLink with Premiere Pro, but it's not fast enough, requiring us to download everything locally. Even with fast connections, it's just not as smooth as we'd like, especially with a serious amount of video editing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LucidLink lets us mount drives easily from multiple locations and store everything in the cloud, boosting our video editing workflow.
Essential Tool for Remote Collaboration and File Management
What do you like best about the product?
I love using LucidLink for distributed file access and collaboration, as it lets our team work with large, shared datasets and assets as local files without facing overhead, sync delays, or versioning issues. It's especially valuable for enabling a remote-first workflow with on-demand access. I appreciate how it strikes the right balance between performance, security, and ease of use, making it reliable and intuitive for both technical and non-technical users. The streaming access model is fantastic, removing the need to download entire folders, thus saving time and storage costs. LucidLink's ability to provide a single source of truth reduces collaboration risks and streamlines workflows, allowing my team to focus on actual work. It's become an integral part of our operations, supporting us without additional overhead.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall, LucidLink has been very reliable for us, but there are a few areas where improvements would make it even stronger. Initial onboarding and mental model shift can take a bit of adjustment, especially for users coming from traditional sync-based tools. While the product itself is intuitive once in use, clearer guidance up front around best practices would help reduce early questions. From a technical perspective, more visibility into performance diagnostics and caching behavior would be useful for power users and IT leads. When teams are working across varying network conditions, having clearer insight into what’s happening under the hood would make troubleshooting faster and more transparent. Lastly, as a startup, we're always thinking about cost predictability as we scale. Additional tooling or guidance to help forecast usage and storage growth over time would be helpful for long-term planning. These are incremental improvements rather than blockers, and none have outweighed the operational benefits we've seen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LucidLink to eliminate sync delays, version conflicts, and storage overhead, allowing seamless access to large shared files as if local. It supports remote-first teams by streamlining file access and collaboration, reducing operational burdens, and ensuring a true single source of truth without manual syncs.
Effortless File Management, Needs Faster Uploads
What do you like best about the product?
I like that LucidLink helps store large video files for video production, especially footage from events and interviews. I appreciate the ability to not have to use solid state drives and keep buying more, as it helps with organization and sharing files easily with my colleagues. The initial setup of LucidLink was very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes upload speeds when on site after recording an event need to be faster.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LucidLink helps store large video files efficiently for production, avoiding the need for solid state drives. It streamlines organization and file sharing with colleagues.
A Game-Changer for Collaborative Creative Workflows
What do you like best about the product?
I love the speed that LucidLink offers, which is huge for us. The ability to lock out folders while in use is another feature I really appreciate. Transferring large files is a breeze compared to the pain of Google Drive sometimes. The setup was super easy too. LucidLink also works seamlessly with Adobe CC, which is crucial for our agency.
What do you dislike about the product?
At this point there are very few things we've run into issues with. I think if I had to choose it would likely be that when we are on crappy hotel wifi and rendering out big files back to LucidLink, it can get bogged down and slow the process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LucidLink to allow multiple editors to work on a project without packaging files. It speeds up our workflow and manages permissions well. Transferring large files is a breeze, unlike Google Drive.
