Lisa Moughan Global Marketing / Corporate Communication Manager Chose OpenText Hightail We looked at Dropbox because it's very well known in the industry and widely used.

Secondly, a lot of people used DropBox for personal use and … Incentivized Helpful? Sarah Bandy Executive Director Chose OpenText Hightail Honestly, once we started using Google Drive more efficiently and saw what improvements OpenText Hightail had made, it was hard to choose.

User Testimonials
	Gmelius	OpenText Hightail
Likelihood to Recommend	Gmelius is perfectly suited for making templates for emails to go out to clients. You can easily share the templates with your team, too, so that everyone has access to them. Gmelius also does a great job of tracking emails so you can confirm the information was received by clients. It is not great to send emails out directly from the mobile app or Gmelius itself, but as a plugin it's perfect. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	-It is useful for carrying out projects and campaigns that use an interdisciplinary team and in which multiple documents have to be worked on, since sending them ends up being pleasant and comfortable for all the people involved. -When it is necessary to have real control and monitoring of the activities of an entire team, it facilitates visualization and coordination. -Intuitive and easy to use for the simplest functionalities such as sending files and material. -Due to its price, it is possible that if you do not use all the tools contained in the software, it might seem a bit expensive. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Easy to assign and action emails. Easy to add notes for a particular individual to action them without missing out on important details. Ready to use templates can be designed for everyday responses to clients. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Storage: OpenText Hightail has a large amount of storage and can handle videos. Organization: It's easy to shuffle and organize data to make sense for you. Incentivized Sarah Bandy Executive Director Read full review
Cons	POLING !!!!! Please! Using images/videos in emails (or maybe I'm not doing it right). I wish the dashboard was easier to navigate -- can be quite confusing/frustrating. Incentivized JL Jessica Lollino Senior Sales Representative Read full review	Some of our recipients are not very tech-savvy and can get confused with how to download a file. There is some room for improvement by making it clearer where the user should click to download the file. Incentivized Lisa Moughan Global Marketing / Corporate Communication Manager Read full review
Alternatives Considered	monday.com is just not user-friendly, so much so that I can't really compare the two. Working on monday.com made me want to pull out my hair. I couldn't find anything, so I felt like I was missing things. This made me nervous and caused me to lose time. If I am losing time using a tool, ba-bye. Gmelius is super easy while being robustly functional Incentivized JL Jessica Lollino Senior Sales Representative Read full review	I've used WeTransfer on the receiving end, and only once to send large files (because the client specifically asked that I send his files with WeTransfer). I can't really comment on how it stacks up against Hightail. On the receiving end, it works. I get an email from them with a download button that takes me to a page (with excellent image content) and I start the download from there. Simple and it works. Using their free option to send files was easy. It was browser-based, which is fine. Whether or not there are desktop and mobile apps I have no idea, although I would imagine there are. I use Hightail because it was the best option when I started using it and it continues to work well for me. Incentivized Daniel Shatzkes Founder/CEO Read full review
Return on Investment	Overall, we did not see a significant ROI from Gmelius compared to other software. Negative impact - time spent troubleshooting features that didn't work or were simply not user-friendly. Negative impact - we felt we lost money because Gmelius removed features from our subscription that were contributing factors in using the software in the first place. Incentivized Adrienne Cooley Content and PR Specialist Read full review	Hightail simply saves time. We no longer struggle with trying to meet the requirements of OutLook. When we have a file that is too large to send via OutLook we just "hightail it". Incentivized Saryia Green Marketing Coordinator Read full review
