Where Send Atlas is different
Three times the free room
A free Send Atlas account sends up to 15 GB per transfer, three times TransferNow’s 5 GB free limit.
1 TB on one plan
TransferNow Premium tops out at 250 GB per transfer. Send Atlas Pro sends up to 1 TB, so feature-length DCPs and full shoots go in one link.
Proof it arrived Pro
Get an email the moment your client downloads, so “I never got the file” stops being your problem.
Previews before download Pro
Pick stills for clients to preview in the browser before they pull the whole package down.
Folders and DCPs arrive intact
Drop a whole folder, including DCPs and image sequences, and it travels as one transfer with its structure preserved. Recipients can download everything or just the files they need.
Survives a dropped connection
If your Wi-Fi drops or the cable comes out mid-transfer, Send Atlas pauses, waits, and picks up where it stopped when you’re back online. Nothing restarts from zero.
When TransferNow is still the right call
TransferNow does several things better than Send Atlas today: password protection and file requests on the free plan without an account, retention of up to a year on paid plans, and a 10-seat Team plan with EU data hosting. If you need long retention or seats for a team, TransferNow is a strong choice. Send Atlas fits better if your free sends are bigger than 5 GB, or your paid transfers regularly exceed 250 GB and you want one flat US-dollar price.
