Dropbox is great for storing files. It is not great for handing them off to clients — every link still says dropbox.com. This page breaks down why agencies switch to bulkshare for cleaner, on-brand client deliveries without enterprise overhead.

Quick verdict
Consider BulkShare when you need recurring client delivery on your own domain, link activity, and optional passwords and expiry controls. Pro costs $29/month. Compare the plans below to decide whether Dropbox is a better fit for your workflow.
Send from files.your-agency.com instead of dropbox.com/s/abc123. Clients see your studio, not your storage provider.
Pro is $29/mo with up to 5 seats. No 3-user minimum, no per-seat math, no surprise upsells when you add a contractor.
Per-link password protection and expiry dates are core to bulkshare Pro — not gated behind the Professional / Business tiers like Dropbox.
Per-link analytics show every open and download in real time — so you stop chasing clients with “did you get the files?” messages.
Four example workflows where branded links and delivery activity can help your team.
Brand handoff
A 4-month rebrand engagement shouldn't end with a wetransfer.com link in the client's inbox. Logos, guidelines, fonts, social templates — delivered from files.youragency.com with your color scheme and one-click download.
Recurring delivery
Organize recurring deliverables in your workspace, reuse uploaded assets, and create client-facing links for each handoff.
Sensitive material
Add a password and expiry window to a Pro delivery. Check your client's security requirements before sharing regulated or sensitive documents.
Multi-stakeholder
Send one delivery link and optionally collect recipient email addresses. Link views and download requests help guide follow-ups, but don't prove a person reviewed the deck.

BulkShare's storage and link controls, with their limits explained.
Primary file storage uses Cloudflare R2 with provider-managed encryption at rest. This is not end-to-end encryption.
Pro lets you add an optional password to a delivery link. Share that password separately from the link; recipients can still retain downloaded copies.
A custom domain such as files.youragency.com keeps the handoff recognizable to your clients. It does not guarantee email delivery or bypass spam filters.
Review recorded views and download requests, with recipient details where available. Activity is not proof of identity, completed downloads, or regulatory compliance.
Pick BulkShare when
You want client-facing links on your own domain instead of dropbox.com.
You need password protection and expiry on every link without paying for the Professional tier.
Your team is small enough that per-seat Business pricing feels heavy for the actual job to be done.
Your primary use case is sending finished work to clients — not storing internal files.
Pick Dropbox when
You are already deeply embedded in the Dropbox ecosystem for internal storage and sync.
You need very large amounts of synced cloud storage as a primary requirement.
Your workflow centers on Dropbox Paper, Capture, or other native Dropbox tools.
For agencies whose main need is sending branded deliverables to clients, bulkshare.cloud is purpose-built for that workflow. Custom-domain delivery, per-link passwords, and download analytics are standard on Pro at $29/mo (up to a 5-person team, no per-seat upcharge) — features that on Dropbox either require the Professional tier or aren't available at all.
