June 11, 2020 – During the Covid-19 Pandemic, many people had to work from home. In this process, the use of online services has increased. One of the increasing services is file transfer sites. People use file transfer services to share their files quickly and easily.

SendGB is one of the growing services in the pandemic process.

The Estonian based startup SendGB.com provides free file transfer in 13 languages. With SendGB, it is possible to share large files up to 5 GB easily and quickly without being a member. The sent files are automatically deleted from the servers after 1 to 90 days selected by the user. Up to 500 files can be sent to 20 recipients at the same time. If requested, the files are also deleted after downloading. Thus, the shared files are quickly deleted from the servers. There is also the option to set a password at the time of shipment for users who value extra security. Users can set passwords for each file transfer.

The important difference that rivals SendGB.com from its peers is that it gives importance to speed. The biggest problem in file sharing is the upload and download speed of large files. Some services limit the file upload and download speed when they provide free services. However, users in SendGB are not limited when uploading and downloading files. If the internet speed allows, users can use SendGB up to 500 Mbps speed.

“Our users increased especially in Europe and India with Covid-19 Pandemic. So we had to increase our network capacity by 20%. People want speed and convenience in file transfer. We, as SendGB, provide our users with speed and ease. With Covid-19, work habits will change. File transfer is required for people working separately with each other, and we will continue to help our users in this regard.” Uğur Çakır | Co-founder of SendGB
