I recently had the experience where I needed to send someone a whole bunch of files and they were trying to set up a Dropbox folder for me to upload them into. Frankly, it sucked. They kept trying to configure the folder and failing. The conversation went something like: Me: “I still can’t see the folder”. Them: “I think it’s fixed now, can you try again?” Me: “Nope.”
I thought Smmall Cloud could do better so I built the File Inbox.
The File Inbox is a single url where anybody can send you files. They can attach as many as they need through an utterly simple interface and add a note and their contact information. All they need is a browser.
Once they submit you get an email notification where you can download the file instantly:
In the dashboard their uploads are grouped by their email and you can download them in bulk and remove them when you’re done.
With your File Inbox instead of fussing with attachment limits, security issues, or configuring Dropbox folders, you can just send them to a link.
This is available today for all Smmall Cloud users. Just visit your dashboard to try it out.
Enjoy!
