Send And Collect Files Here
Real companies send files to outside parties, and collect files from them, on the platform every day.
Secure File Sharing Your Whole Company Will Actually Use
Files.com gives the business a governed, audited way to send and collect files with outside parties — so people stop emailing attachments and reaching for personal Dropbox or WeTransfer, and stop bending SharePoint and Google Drive into external sharing they were never built for.
Branded share links to send files out and branded inboxes to collect them in — each one carrying expiry, passwords, recipient binding, watermarking, and clickwrap, and every transfer logged in an immutable, exportable audit trail. Your people get the two-click convenience they went looking for; you get the visibility and control shadow IT took away.
Branded links and inboxes
Every transfer in the audit log

4,000 organizations rely on Files.com every day
Real companies. Real file flows. Real results.
The Files Are Already Leaving The Building
An employee with a file too big to email, a nurse sending a record to an outside specialist, a paralegal moving a contract — none of them are trying to cause a problem. They had a file to move, and the approved tools made it harder than just grabbing a personal Dropbox. Files.com makes the approved way the easy way.

The Approved Way To Send A File Out
A branded share link instead of a personal Dropbox — just as easy to use as the consumer tool, with all the controls the consumer tool never had.
A Branded Link, Under Your Domain
Send one share link for a file, several files, or a whole folder. The recipient opens a page on your own domain, takes what they need without making a Files.com account, and is done — just as easy as the consumer tool they would have used instead.
Passwords And Locked Recipients
Put a password on a link, and tie each invitation to one email address and one browser, so a forwarded link no longer lets just anyone in. Limit who can open it to approved domains, or make it single-use so it stops working after one download.
Expiration, So Nothing Lives Forever
Every link can have an expiration date. A link that used to sit in someone’s personal Dropbox forever now turns off on a date you set — and an admin can shut it off sooner.
Watermarks And NDAs For Sensitive Files
Turn on preview-only mode so the file can be read but not downloaded, stamp the recipient’s name across every preview so a leaked screenshot points back to them, and require a click-to-accept NDA — recorded with the time and IP address — before anyone gets in.
How Teams Send And Collect Files Here
“The one-time file upload links, one-time file download links, and the management UI make my work easier and more efficient — they make it easier to gather and share sensitive documents in a secure way.”
Steven Papadakis
Founder & CEO, NE2NE
“I set up all our users and set up inboxes where our customers can send us files, and everything just works. Email notifications are also a big thing for us — we need to know when we have a new file sent to us, and those just work as well.”
Lance Phillips
Controller, Gerald Printing
The Approved Way To Collect A File
A branded inbox instead of "just email it to me." Outsiders upload without an account, and the file lands in a folder IT controls — not in someone’s personal mailbox.
A Permanent Inbox Instead Of "Just Email It To Me"
A branded Inbox is a fixed web address anyone can upload to — no account needed, and they never see what anyone else sent. It is the direct replacement for the contractor emailing a timesheet, the provider emailing a record, the vendor emailing an invoice.
A Controlled Folder, Not Someone’s Mailbox
The file lands in a folder IT controls, with the permissions and the retention you set — not in one person’s email inbox where no one else can find it and nothing gets recorded.
Email Intake, With A Record
Give the inbox its own email address, allow only approved sending domains to deliver to it, send automatic receipts back, and keep a log of every email that came in.
The Record IT Loses When People Go Around It
The whole problem with personal Dropbox and emailed attachments is that the file moves and no one has a record of it — who sent what, to whom, when, or whether it was ever taken down. Files.com gives you that record back. Every link created, every time a recipient opens one, every download, every inbox upload, and every email that comes in is logged as its own event in an audit log no one can edit — kept for years and exportable on demand or fed straight into your SIEM.
In a regulated shop, that record is the difference between a clean answer and an audit finding. When a breach notice, a regulator, or a closed deal asks who saw the file, you point to the export — not “we don’t know.”
The Controls That Decide Who Can Share And What Leaves
Administrators set the rules that make the approved way the only way — so sharing files outside the company is something you grant to the right people, not something every employee figures out on their own.
Set The Rules For Everyone
Require a password on every share link, lock every link to its invited recipient, cap how long any link can live, and block free or throwaway email domains from receiving files. External sharing then happens inside the lines you draw, not however each employee decides to do it.
Decide Who Can Share At All
Nine permission levels and SSO logins decide which staff are even allowed to share files outside the company. Sharing externally becomes something you grant to the people who need it, not something everyone just does.
Access Ends When Someone Leaves
Turn off a departing user’s account and their share links die with it. Per-folder rules limit what file types an inbox will take. The leftover access that usually outlives an employee just goes away.
You’re Replacing A Habit, Not A Vendor
What you’re really up against is a habit. Email attachments, personal Dropbox, WeTransfer — people reach for them not because anyone picked them as the company’s file tool, but because they were right there. A file dropped on a personal account moves with no expiration, no lock on who can open it, no limit on the recipient, and no record. Files.com isn’t a fancier version of those tools. It’s the approved way that’s just as easy to use, where every transfer carries the controls and the record you’re on the hook for.
SharePoint and Google Drive are the quieter version of the same habit, and the fix is just as simple: they’re great for working together inside the company, and they were never built for controlled sharing with outside parties. Keep collaborating there. Do the outside exchange here, where the link and the inbox are controlled and every access is recorded.
Governed, Audited, And Easy To Manage
“I appreciate the strong security-first approach, granular permission model, and detailed audit logging, which make it easy to enforce least-privilege access and maintain compliance — keeping file operations reliable and well-governed without adding operational overhead.”
Shravankumar Ligadi
Analyst, IT Access Management, Capillary Technologies
“The best features are ease of access and easy-to-secure portals. It is easy to handle automation around encrypted files and to make it easy for our partners to send us the data we need from them — it has saved my team time and reduced errors.”
