VERDICT

Should I use Digital Pigeon?

Send large files with ease, thanks to Digital Pigeon – your efficient and reliable file sharing platform that allows you to present your work, your way. - digitalpigeon.com

Depends. Buy it if you're a filmmaker, editor, or audio pro regularly sending multi-gigabyte files to clients with your branding. Skip it if you share occasionally — free tools like WeTransfer already cover that.
