Sending and Receiving Large Files

There will be times when you have to send or receive large files and your email account may not be able to accommodate it, and even if it can, this can consume your Inbox storage. Email attachments also have become a thing of the past, ever since sharing files became easier, with cloud storage apps like Google Drive, Dropbox, etc. and online file transfer such as WeTransfer.

By sharing files, there is no need to download them first and then send duplicate copies to different recipients. Instead, the same copy of a file can be shared among members, which also helps with collaboration, since everyone can work together on a single file. The same with online file transfer service (WeTransfer), except that it is applicable for one time sending of files as it expires within few days (7 days standard).
Below are some of safe and reliable 3rd party online services that you can use to send and receive large file attachments.

 
1. Send and receive large files via WeTransfer.com.
