if you're only sending to one recipient we have that feature in (you get file downloaded green message on the top) if you have multi recipient that's a more complex ui problem that we're thinking of... Thanks for the feedback

Thanks for the reply! If I have to think that will I also CC somebody/team/any group before sending it out, then it becomes too complex for me. It's not then the easiest by far since I already have a working solution! Maybe I'm just not in the target group.

  Well I agree that dropbox is easy, but it's also limited. Space for example. Also, if you're sending to a group of co-workers you don't have to upload the entire thing to the cloud. it'll transfer blazingly fast inside the LAN.

    storage space and bandwidth are not really limiting factors on today's internet. i have over 100gig of online storage and 25mbps internet, for example. (corrected 1gig to 100gig).

      1 gig is nothing (for many people needs). anyway I don't see sharefest as a replacement, but rather another tool.

        2 (up to 18) gigs from Dropbox free. Google Drive 15 gig free. For team of 15, Dropbox offers $2000/year for unlimited storage. Like djim said, storage space and bandwidth are non-issues. May I suggest trying to get Sharefest popular within a niche? You may have to adapt to that particular niche, but I think it'll help you a lot.

    If the files I'm sending would be huge, which for me they never are, and if I'm inside a LAN then I can use a file server for that. It would also be a directory for those files. I think there's something in your product, but it doesn't have any selling points for me. Even if you make it as good as Dropbox or any other service, I won't change. For that, you need to be better than existing solutions. Either be better or be different. Generic user facing file sharing - been there, done that.
