getting the settings correct to allow multiple users proper updates without having to refresh cache successful remote mapping of files to common files for use during normal business operations from multiple locations seamless cloud file mapping

We operate remote offices utilizing Amazon S3, iDrive Cloud Storage, and remote drives on servers thru a webdrive thru sftp connection. With Webdrive we are able to map remote drives, from multiple locations, as local drives. This way multiple remote office locations are able to work on the same data seemlessly. The cost of using Webdrive for multiple locations saves us several hundred dollars when compared to Amazons internal gateway service.

Simple to use, but very powerful

What do you like best about WebDrive File Access Client?

Simple to use and setup. Acts just like a mapped drive. Excellent support when needed (problem my fault, not caused by the app)

What do you dislike about WebDrive File Access Client?

Some short delay between local and remote actions, but considering what is happening, this is completely understandable.

What problems is WebDrive File Access Client solving and how is that benefiting you?

Treats an FTP site as a local drive. This makes it easy for me to maintain a web portal as a developer.

No thanks to Adobe! Solved my problem right away

What do you like best about WebDrive File Access Client?

Webdrive gives me complete access to all my sites no matter where I am. Absolutely indispensable and very easy to use.

What do you dislike about WebDrive File Access Client?

Having to "approve" linking with WD every time I open it, but this is a Windows issue.

Recommendations to others considering WebDrive File Access Client?

Get it.

What problems is WebDrive File Access Client solving and how is that benefiting you?

Had a problem accessing one of my web sites with my "obsolete" and wholly un-cool HTML editor (Dreamweaver MX). I got snotty comments from the so-called "support" community for Adobe and suggestions that I should get a "modern" editor. I contacted WD's support and in one reply they solved my issue. Couldn't have been better.

Great product that I use every day!

What do you like best about WebDrive File Access Client?

I have been using for years for easy editing of files in the cloud. I like that it doesn't change the file extension like google docs does. I use it with S3 and have previously used with Onedrive. It works perfectly.

What do you dislike about WebDrive File Access Client?

Nothing. Good product, good support, reasonable price.

What problems is WebDrive File Access Client solving and how is that benefiting you?

I often work with text files and google docs changes the extension, so it can't be imported to a program expecting a text file. Webdrive keeps the file type. Also makes it really simple to edit stuff in the cloud because it uses the desktop app for that type of file.

Great software, hugely useful in my daily work

What do you like best about WebDrive File Access Client?

Read and write access to remote servers as if they were local is way more useful than it sounds. Supports many connection profiles including S/FTP, SSH, Google, S3, and others. I've used it almost daily for something like 15 years.

What do you dislike about WebDrive File Access Client?

I haven't been able to find any other way to replicate what WebDrive does, so it makes me a little nervous to depend on it so heavily. However, I recently had an issue (for the first time in ~15 years) and they solved it for me with a remote desktop session. So now I also know how good their support is.

What problems is WebDrive File Access Client solving and how is that benefiting you?

Super-easy access to remote servers makes it way more intuitive to work with them.

Awesomest among a bunch of alternatives.

What do you like best about WebDrive File Access Client?

I am an independent IT Specialist. With the burst of cloud drives everywhere, clients were asking for something that would aggregate their different accounts into something useful. Between Webdrive, Expandrive, and others I test drove, WebDrive offered the best experience. Their support team is also quick in helping resolve issues. Support for a plethora of providers is a boon. As is the speed and ease of use, log file data, and security.

What do you dislike about WebDrive File Access Client?

At times, it does require updates. When it autoupdates, it doesn't always mention that the program or system should be restarted. User is stuck trying to figure out why files are not synced or opening. When you open the Webdrive program, it'll tell you an update has been applied and needs to be restarted. Small glitch which I hope is resolved soon.

What problems is WebDrive File Access Client solving and how is that benefiting you?

Not having to sync all cloud drive data locally to a PC with small SSD drive is the biggest benefit. If PCs are lost, stolen, etc. having data not be stuck on the PC due to not syncing of cloud data is another benefit.

WebDrive Brings Cloud Storage to the Desktop

What do you like best about WebDrive File Access Client?

This product was very easy to install on my PC and my Mac. It's easy to connect to S3 and S3-compatible stores. The support services are outstanding!

What do you dislike about WebDrive File Access Client?

I haven't found anything that I disklike.

What problems is WebDrive File Access Client solving and how is that benefiting you?

I began using Amazon S3 and Backblaze storage solutions for clients, code backups, media deliveries. etc. I needed a quick way to access the files without using the console. I tried many products before settling on WebDrive.

A review from the "little guy"

What do you like best about WebDrive File Access Client?

I use WebDrive to connect to two Google Drive accounts plus four Microsoft OneDrive accounts (Microsoft 365). I am a single user so I do not have the resources of a company IT team behind me. When I have questions or issues the WebDrive support team has been responsive and easy to deal with. They have solved my problem in every case with no exceptions. I am a very satisfied customer.

What do you dislike about WebDrive File Access Client?

Some of the options/check boxes use very "techy" verbiage. If you are an IT professional this is no problem but for a 64 year old single user this can be a problem. If you want to make the product more usable by a broader spectrum of people there should be explanations (pop-up right next to the item) in simple, plain language that a high school graduate can understand.

What problems is WebDrive File Access Client solving and how is that benefiting you?

I wanted immediate access to various cloud drives right within Windows 10 vs. having to go to a web interface. Using WebDrive is faster, simpler, and easier than other methods.
