How it works

Get your download link in three simple steps.

1

Choose files

Drag your files into the upload area or click to choose. Select individual files or entire folders.
2

Choose expiration

Choose how long your link stays active — from one day to forever. Files are deleted automatically afterwards.
3

Share the link

Copy the download link and share it by chat, email or anywhere you like. The recipient needs no account.

Transfer — share files like a pro

Everything you need to send files quickly and securely.

Up to 20 GB per transfer

Large files are no problem. Automatic chunking distributes them intelligently across multiple storage units.

Drag & drop upload

Simply drag files and entire folders into the upload area. Or click to choose — it is up to you.

Flexible expiration

1 hour, 1 day, 7 days, 30 days, 1 year or forever — you decide how long the link stays active.

One link — everything included

Whether it is 1 file or 100 — one download link for everything. Download files individually or as a ZIP.

Sequential queue

Files upload one after another. Progress is visible for each file and overall.

No account required

Neither sender nor recipient needs an account. Upload, copy the link, share — done.

Cloud — your personal storage

Full-featured cloud storage with everything you need — persistent, organized and under your control.

Folder hierarchy

Create folders within folders at any depth. Navigate with breadcrumbs like in a full file manager.

File search

Find any file instantly. Search scans every folder in real time as you type.

Favorites

Mark important files and folders with a star. Access them quickly from the favorites view.

File preview

View images, videos, PDFs, Markdown and code directly in your browser, with syntax highlighting for developers.

Share files

Generate share links for individual files or entire folders. Share folders with other users as read-only or read and write.

Bulk actions

Select multiple files with Ctrl+click or Shift+click, then delete, move or download them all at once.

Drag & drop moving

Drag files directly onto folders to move them. This also works with navigation breadcrumbs.

Storage limit per user

The admin controls how much storage each user receives. 0 means unlimited. Usage is always visible.

Recent files

Quick access to recently uploaded files across every folder, sorted chronologically.

Under the hood

Enterprise technology with full control.

CloudDrop storage pool

Multiple storage units work together as one large pool. More units provide more space.

Intelligent chunking

Files larger than a single storage unit are split automatically and distributed across multiple units.

Permanent deletion

Deleted files are removed from CloudDrop immediately and permanently — no recycle bin and no residual data.

Activity log

Every upload, deletion and share is logged for complete administrative transparency.

Health monitoring

Automatic health checks for every storage unit detect and flag faulty connections.

Admin dashboard

See storage, storage units, transfers, users and upload activity at a glance.
