Microsoft SharePointvs
BulkShare

SharePoint is built for internal Microsoft 365 teams. The moment you send a link to an external client, you hit account prompts, IT setup, and a sharepoint.com URL that doesn't look like you. Bulkshare ditches the enterprise overhead — clients get a branded link, click once, download.

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 Microsoft SharePoint is a better fit for your workflow.

The 3 things that change when you switch

  1. 01

    No IT configuration required

    Bulkshare is ready for client delivery in minutes — no Azure AD, SharePoint sites, or permission hierarchies to configure.

  2. 02

    No per-seat overhead

    Pro is $29/mo for up to 5 seats — deliver files to unlimited clients without per-user Microsoft 365 licensing.

  3. 03

    Branded links on your domain

    Clients receive download links on your own domain — not a sharepoint.com URL that signals internal infrastructure.

Where teams switch from Microsoft SharePoint

Four example workflows where branded links and delivery activity can help your team.

Brand handoff

Final brand pack to client

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

Monthly retainer drops

Organize recurring deliverables in your workspace, reuse uploaded assets, and create client-facing links for each handoff.

Sensitive material

Contracts, payroll, legal docs

Add a password and expiry window to a Pro delivery. Check your client's security requirements before sharing regulated or sensitive documents.

Multi-stakeholder

Decks for a 12-person client review

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.

  • There is no standalone free tier for SharePoint — it requires a paid Microsoft 365 subscription.
  • Per-user seat pricing applies across all tiers.
  • SharePoint sharing links carry Microsoft branding and domain — no custom-domain option for external delivery.

Security & data handling

BulkShare's storage and link controls, with their limits explained.

  • Encryption at rest

    Primary file storage uses Cloudflare R2 with provider-managed encryption at rest. This is not end-to-end encryption.

  • Password on every link

    Pro lets you add an optional password to a delivery link. Share that password separately from the link; recipients can still retain downloaded copies.

  • Your domain, your trust

    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.

  • Delivery activity

    Review recorded views and download requests, with recipient details where available. Activity is not proof of identity, completed downloads, or regulatory compliance.

Honest take — which one fits your team

Pick BulkShare when

You care about the handoff.

  • You need to send deliverables to clients without enterprise setup or IT involvement.

  • You want flat pricing with built-in team workspaces instead of per-seat licensing.

  • You want client-facing links on your own domain rather than a Microsoft subdomain.

Pick Microsoft SharePoint when

It's a better fit for you.

  • Your organization is already standardized on Microsoft 365 for all internal workflows.

  • You need enterprise-grade document management, compliance, and intranet capabilities.

  • IT governance and advanced permissions are a primary business requirement.

Common questions

Yes. Bulkshare is designed specifically for sending files to clients without the enterprise complexity of SharePoint. You can be up and running with branded delivery links in minutes rather than setting up a SharePoint site.
