ForgetBox is available in a free version that comes with a few limitations: Files are stored on the servers for only 24 hours after the recipient is notified of their availability. And recipients must wait 15 seconds before downloading the files. The paid version, which costs 3 Euros for six months stores files for one week and allows instant downloads. The Gmail add-on costs 15 Euros per year, but if you invite two friends to try it out, you can get one free month of access.

If you need to share a lot of files and don't want to clog up your email account with them, ForgetBox offers an easy way to handle the task. But be prepared to wait if you're sharing sizable files: if you need to get the data to someone ASAP, ForgetBox may not be for you. If you're looking for a speedier and smoother solution, WinZip's ZipSend may be for you, if you're willing to pay the price.
