What do you dislike about the product?

Industry Game Changer
What do you like best about the product?
I think this tool has enabled an effective workflow for keeping everything in the cloud in one place while also being useable from anywhere, from in-office to remote.
What do you dislike about the product?
The platform his heavily reliant on internet speed and connection. I think it would be helpful if there was some more infrastructure for their pinning system, or the development of an "offline mode"

Ease with data management
Lucid Link-Great Workflow
What do you like best about the product?
Being a cloud based software..is great for archiving and to edit from, especially when traveling on the road.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I do not like is when uploading, if the files have a strange character in the file naming it will fail the upload, which could be in the middle of lots of data/files. then you have to go backtrack what was uploaded and restart some of the folders etc?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Safety of file management..and the ease of knowing that where ever I go (with internet) I have access to my data/files.
LucidLink has revolutionised the way we work
What do you like best about the product?
One of the biggest benefits of LucidLink is how easy it is to move existing storage and workflows to the platform as users interact with it in exactly the same way they are accustomed to.
It was incredibly easy for us to take our existing on-prem file shares and move all of that to the cloud almost overnight.

What do you dislike about the product?
There really are very few downsides that we have come across.
Possible areas for improvement are:
•Usage reporting and quotas
•Client patching in enterprise environments

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
LucidLink has allowed us to virtually eliminate our VPN usage whilst also allowing significantly quicker access to our data for users working from home.
It allowed us to amalgamate lots of separate on-prem file servers into a single system, all located in the cloud, thus reducing hardware requirements on-prem.
We also use it to back a number of our workflow and pipeline services which has allowed us to modernise these processes.

Fast and reliable, able to edit 4k footage from the cloud.
What do you like best about the product?
Our media is available to all our editors at any location that has a reliable internet connection. Our plan is scalable as our projects grow. The ability to mount the cloud share as a removable disk makes searching in OSX finder much easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
To no fault of the service, the minimum internet speed isn't always achievable. You have to plan ahead and pin your files to a local or removable hard drive. The other main issue is installing the Lucid Client app. It can be tricky on Apple computers, as you have to disable some security protocols. This has led to some vendors/clients not wanting to use the app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our local media server is outdated and out of room. We were relying on external hard drives to share media, which was messy to say the least. Lucid makes storing, organizing, accessing and sharing media seamless.
Their solution is in the cloud but their service is very well grounded
What do you like best about the product?
It is changing the way we work globally and how we collaborate with creatives/editors around the world, in the most effective way possible.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is new; there are technical issues and teething problems but they are very keen to help and work through them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Replacing clunky uploading and downloading and sneakernet, allowing us to centralize our editing and creative ecosystem.
