The EasyUpload Alternative for Secure File Sharing

Pick Quickupload if you:

• Want per-link control: download caps, download tracking with geography and referrers, custom expiry windows
• Need the REST API for automation — EasyUpload does not advertise one
• Share files regularly for work and want analytics on whether clients actually opened them

Pick EasyUpload if you:

• Need the biggest possible free send — they advertise up to 4 GB per file with no account, versus Quickupload’s 50 MB anonymous / 100 MB free-account limits
• Want free links that live for up to 30 days without paying

On raw free-tier file size, EasyUpload is ahead, and this page is not going to hide it. Their free anonymous uploads go up to 4 GB per file; Quickupload allows 50 MB without an account and 100 MB with a free one. Paid Quickupload plans raise the ceiling to 2 GB per file on Pro and 10 GB on Enterprise — still smaller than EasyUpload’s free 4 GB for a single monster file, though their advertised premium tier (up to 5 TB) is the one to check against Enterprise-level needs.

What Quickupload trades for that size is capability: password protection on every plan, per-link download limits, and analytics. If your sends are documents, design files, audio stems or video drafts under 2 GB, the size gap rarely bites — and everything below it is where the services diverge.

Sending a file is table stakes; the difference shows up afterwards. On Quickupload Pro you can cap a link at three downloads, watch download counts, geography and referrers roll in, and set an expiry window from hours to 30 days (90 on Enterprise). EasyUpload’s advertised free tier offers password protection and up to 30 days of storage, but no per-link download limits or analytics appear anywhere on their site.

That matters for professional sends. When a client says “I never got the file”, download tracking answers the question with data. When a link leaks outside its intended recipient, a download cap limits the blast radius. Neither control exists on EasyUpload’s advertised feature set.

EasyUpload does not advertise a public API. If your workflow is drag-and-drop in a browser, that costs you nothing. The moment you want file delivery inside a script, a CI pipeline or a client portal, it becomes the deciding row in the table.

Quickupload ships a documented REST API with Bearer authentication and scoped keys: a key limited to files:write cannot read your analytics. It supports multipart uploads and resumable chunked upload sessions, and every option — expires_at, password, max_downloads — is available programmatically. Pro includes 100 requests/hour; Enterprise raises it further.
