I run a very small home-based business selling a niche book of railway maps. I needed a way to distribute PDF versions to my customers at an affordable price and after trying several others, I found Fileflare was the best tool for the job. Even the lowest-cost tier offers me the flexibility to run my little shop effectively. Customer service is exactly what it should be, too. If it works this well for my little store then I can only imagine how much flexibility it will provide for larger businesses. Strongly recommended!

Using Fileflare for a short time but it works well. It was easy to upload our digital products even though one of them had 97 audio tracks and a large PDF document. We did a test purchase to a mobile phone and it went smoothly. The audio tracks downloaded directly on an iPhone with no other apps needed and we could play them directly from the files folder on the phone. Highly recommend Fileflare for audio track delivery.

Love to hear it! We have some improvements in the pipeline for audio delivery, too, so please keep an eye out as we continue developing on the app. Thanks again for leaving a review!

I have been using Fileflare for over a year now and I really love how it works. I would certainly recommend this as the best app for digital downloads on Shopify. Also their support team is great. They listen to you and help you if you need customizations and it just works like a charm. You can also connect it to your own file hosting if you want or you can use theirs. Also their pricing is actually the best that I found on Shopify. Awesome, thanks so much for the review! I also think Fileflare is the best Digital Downloads app on Shopify but people tend to like it better when someone else tells them. Please let us know if we can do anything else to help with your store :) - Ian

FileFlare does exactly what I need -- delivers download links to files automatically upon order. I self host the files to save on costs. FileFlare allows me to do everything within Shopify instead of needing an outside app. It couldn't be more user friendly. Also, the new blocks feature lets me see the unique download links that my customers get in their account pages, within my order page on Shopify. 10/10 do recommend.

Developer reply ·

Thank you for the kind words! And yes, we're building into the Shopify blocks so you can manage digital files without leaving Shopify's existing Order and Product pages. Glad to hear that's working to make things easier! :)

Excellent app and outstanding support We've been using Fileflare for many years to deliver ebooks and audio files through our Shopify store and have been very happy with it. Recently, we experienced an email deliverability issue, and the support from Ian was exceptional. He was responsive, transparent about the cause of the problem, kept us informed about the fix, and followed up afterward to make sure everything was working properly. He also took the time to discuss options for improving our email delivery in the future without trying to push us into a more expensive plan. Fileflare has been a reliable solution for our digital downloads, and it's especially reassuring to know that there is such thoughtful and responsive support behind it. Highly recommended. Glad we could get to the bottom of that deliverability issue and that walking through the options together was useful! Please reach out anytime you need anything :) - Ian

I've been extremely happy with the support from Fileflare. Their customer service is outstanding. They respond quickly, provide personal support (no bots!), and you always communicate with the same person, which makes the whole experience so much easier. What impressed me most is that they don't close your support request until you're completely satisfied and everything is working exactly as it should. They genuinely care about solving your problem instead of just giving a quick answer. Highly recommended if you're looking for an app backed by a team that truly cares about its customers. I'll let you in on a little secret: keeping your support requests open is a little selfish on our part. If we can actually get to the root of each problem raised via support, it means we can make Fileflare better for you and everyone else a lot more easily. Please don't hesitate to reach out as much as you need! Thanks so much for the review :)

I’ve been using File Flare for a while now, and it’s a brilliant app. The customer support is exceptional! It completely solved an issue I was having with buyers sharing my PDFs—the discrete customer stamp feature puts their details right on the file, which stopped sharing in its tracks. Highly recommended! Thanks so much for leaving this feedback, it's very kind! I'm so glad we were able to help when you needed us and that you're enjoying our PDF stamping feature. If you run into any further questions or queries, don't hesitate to reach out - we're always happy to help! :)

Really glad the interface and the setup help landed well. That back-and-forth with merchants is exactly how the app gets better, so thank you for taking the time to share what you needed with our team!

Incredible customer service. (Especially if you want to switch services.) I switched from Pendora because Pendora stopped sending emails without warning, leaving a huge backlog of unsent products... it was a disaster. Worse still because Pendora has no "export as CSV" function. When I switched to Fileflare, the customer service team (Ian specifically) helped track down everyone who hadn't got their products, and email them (through Fileflare now) their exact orders. On the same day I switched. Fileflare solved a very gigantic weeks-long headache. 5 stars. Thank you for the kind words, and for giving Fileflare a try! I'm really glad we could track everyone down and get their orders delivered the same day you switched. That's exactly what we're here for. Reliability and good experience for our customers and yours :) Love the videos, by the way!

And being there when you needed us, Sunday included, is just how we like to work. If anything else ever comes up, we're always around!

This team and app is amazing! We needed some custom PDF stamping built out for our store, and not only was FileFlare accommodating, but Ian and his team were able to go through and build out a new portion of their app for us! This, to us, was the ultimate customer service experience. It is so refreshing to be able to speak to an actual human, and not a robot as well. Much, much appreciated to the entire team. Building out the gift PDF setup for a mission like yours is exactly the kind of work we love saying yes to, and the "real human, not a robot" part means a lot. Anytime you need us, we're here to help!

I've been on Shopify for over six years, and I've never come across an app this good and robust, and on top of that, the support from William and Max is amazing. The ease of scheduling, attaching additional assets, and limiting downloads all provide so much peace of mind. There's hardly ever been an outage or issue, and they'll reach out within minutes if you have a question or need guidance. I only wish I could give 10 stars! :)

I used to use SendOwl to manage digital download delivery to my customers. Then they raised my monthly subscription by 15x with no warning. That's when I found Fileflare. It's honestly a way better user experience than Sendowl and it's way less expensive. It has everything I need to deliver the downloads to my customers. And the download pages integrate into my website better and look better than the Sendowl download pages. Would definitely recommend Fileflare

Really glad the download pages are integrating well on your site and that our pricing makes sense for your store! Pricing should be transparent and predictable :)

We’ve been extremely happy with Fileflare. After dealing with the limitations and quirks of Shopify Digital Downloads, switching to Fileflare has been a huge improvement for both our team and our customers. The setup is straightforward, file management is reliable, and—most importantly—the customer experience is _dramatically_ better. Files are easy to manage, updates are smooth, and we’ve seen far fewer support issues. It feels like Fileflare was designed by people who actually understand software and digital product delivery workflows, not just generic digital goods to check off arbitrary bullet points. Support has been responsive and helpful when we needed them. Their onboarding support was also stellar. They even followed up with us on feature requests. Highly recommended. 5 stars. Would give six if I could.

Developer reply ·

Thank you - glad the onboarding and feature-request follow-ups landed well! And I'll pass the 6-stars feature request on to the Shopify dev-rel team.

Went through my extensive order history and pulled in all my pre-existing digital orders I wanted to use it for, which was something my older Download app couldn't do and this saved me a ton of time. Uptime is great, but support response when something does go wrong is even better. Nothing works all the time, but if support is responsive and fixes things quickly, that gives me long term confidence in the tool for my store.

Great product, and tech support is stellar. I was able to get in touch with an actual human and get the answers I needed - very quickly - to complete setup. Then, when I needed an option added to the PDF Stamp feature (the primary use in my case for this app), the team responded and the feature had been added within about a week. It can be a real gamble sometimes choosing between apps. Very glad I went with FileFlare. Highly recommend to anyone that wants to protect their digital products!

Excellent app with truly outstanding support FileFlare has been a great solution for our digital downloads. The delivery page is clean, secure, and user-friendly (especially with the video instructions we requested). What really stands out is the support team. They've been extremely responsive and helpful twice now: - Added the ability to embed videos directly in the delivery page editor when we asked. - Performed a bulk edit on all our imported historical orders to restrict access and protect our version policy. They're even working on a longer-term solution for per-order file snapshots. This level of support is rare and very much appreciated. Highly recommend FileFlare, especially if you value a team that listens and acts.

Developer reply ·

Thank you for your review! We enjoyed working with you on the video embed feature for the delivery page. It's a great example of how customer feedback shapes the product, and we're glad it's working well for you. We've already recommended using it to a few more people since :)

I can’t praise this app enough! It’s easy to use and very straightforward. I love that I can manage a large library of digital products and the app handles it without slowing down. My favorite feature is the option send updates to my customers when I make changes. It's a much needed feature in my case since version updates happen often. Files are delivered instantly and, and I never had issues with customers not receiving their downloads. The support has been fantastic. In the beginning, the team helped me import items from another app, and since then, over the past 2 years of using it, everything worked exactly as it should. I didn't need to contact support since. Big thanks to the team for an amazing app that my business can't run without!
