Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why

MediaFire's Pro Pricing is cheaper than Dropbox, although they're less known in the industry. I trust them with important documents, and they [have] never lost a file, whereas I can't say the same about other services like theirs. Customer service is fast and friendly if you need them, and their site is very clean and clutter free, which (to me) is important.

MediaFire is a great tool that is growing in service offerings and popularity. I recommend MediaFire as an addition to any content creators tool build as they offer a substantial free cloud storage offering with the ease of private cloud storage integrations and content distribution. MediaFire is becoming an essential tool for the multi-platform brand.

MediaFire provides the best services among them and you can easily go for it without any second thought.

It is very affordable to use and offers high-security enhancement against the G-Drive & Dropbox.

If you want to store documents and share it between members FileDrop features can help increase collaboration and productivity.

All four services stand well against each other from the performance and reliability perspectives, but where MediaFire falls behind is in terms of storage offered for the free user,10 GB is an acceptable storage space but is the least amount offered between all four and is the only one to not offer a PC Client to install and allow file sync on the computer itself.

While Google Drive is really high end on every aspect, MediaFire can still catch up if it works on certain aspects like ease of collaboration, better security etc. The areas where MediaFire is good at are it's ease of use and free space on offer which can allow smooth sharing or storing of files.

We use this as a secondary cloud storage option where features and security provided by other cloud providers are not critical.

It has the ability to store large files and has been a cloud storage provider for a long time, however the design and experience is somewhat dated with limited features.

MediaFire is easy and free of cost to use up to 10 GB of storage over the web to share data with others. [Other] storages and server like Google Cloud and AWS are way too costly and a little complex to setup or share data over them as they are not designed to share files over them[...].

Mediafire needs to improve the end user usability and design. The file encryption at rest and transfer needs to be available which is a default feature in most cloud based storage providers. 3rd party integration needs to improved like outlook etc for ease of file storage and access. The large file allowance ranks above other providers.

Although both have similar functions, the differences between the two are perhaps more associated with the publicity they have received, since Dropbox is a more formal use, while MediaFire is used a lot of time to share movies and files illegally. The advantage that MediaFire has is the storage space that it gives you, which is much higher even in the free version. But the disadvantage is perhaps something more personal and has to do with the feeling of "security" that Dropbox gives, which finally is something equally important.

All of these solutions stack up pretty well but there are some differences between them. MediaFire is very easy to use and manage files and documents. With a 10 GB you can do many things and share many documents with the team or the department which is what made us decide to use it officially in our team.

It's a big competitor to these big guys on the market; being affordable and reliable has made it my top choice. I have used Google Drive and Dropbox extensively and wanted to try out a new provider and I'm happy with my decision. I had a lot of problems with the file sync with Google Drive but not as much using MediaFire and that's great.

MediaFire is similar to software like Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, Mega and ownCloud. All of them share similar features. I particularly like MediaFire's usability because it has a smooth, simple and responsive interface. The pricing by MediaFire is also good and the company frequently offers upgrades with discounts (I got 50% to upgrade to Pro Version).

All four services stack up pretty well against each other in terms of performance and reliability, but where MediaFire falls behind is in terms of storage offered for the free user. 10GB is still a good amount of space for your average user, but is the least amount offered between all four and is the only one to not offer a PC Client to install and allow file sync on the computer itself. All four have mobile applications that work well, and pretty much are identical for the most part in terms of service and offerings. Pricing is different but comparable.
