What it does
LiquidFiles is a file-transfer virtual appliance with download links, Filedrop pages, shared folders and file requests.
LiquidFiles separates four business tasks: Send delivers a download link, Filedrop accepts uploads, Share provides folders with access and expiry controls, and Request asks for specific documents. Recipients of sent files and contributors to Filedrop do not need accounts. The virtual appliance runs on infrastructure selected by the organization, including supported on-premises or private-cloud options. The provider describes chunked uploads without a software file-size cap, but available disk space remains the practical storage limit. Download confirmations, audit logs and a REST API support repeated organizational deliveries; a 45-day trial is offered.
