Big files – teacher’s nightmare

Have you ever struggled with sending files that are too big? Whether it is an audio file, a pdf document or a video with your student’s presentation, the tools describe in this post are simple to use, fast and free. There are plenty of online programs not requiring downloading software. Have a look at the six I find the best.

TransferBigFiles– transfer files up to 20 GB. I managed to transfer audio 14 GB file. It took around 10 minutes but was worth it.

FileDropper – not as big as Transfer Big Files; it transfers files up to 5G; relatively fast (store the files up to 30 days)

DropSend transfers up to 2 GB but it’s fast and easy to use.

Wesendit– up to 2 GB and it’s fast.Plus it has a unique feature – it lets you can e-sign documents.

SendThisFile – up to 2 GB, similar features. They all give you a PRO option which will definitely speed up the upload but, as we agreed, we don’t want to spend any money – the free plans should be more than enough.
