Don't just take our word for it, see testimonials
As a People operations associate on an HR team, this extension has been a lifesaver when it comes to having to implement new software systems for my organization. For example- in a new system, have you ever been asked to rename HUNDREDS of files so that your new software company can upload them via mapping? This tool helped me save a ton of time when we recently needed to upload historical reviews into a new performance system. Instead of manually having to re-name files, I could export them into google sheet, do some x-look up magic, and rename them within minutes. This has been such a game changer, can't sing enough positive praises!

Thank you for your "silly add-on". I wanted to do a picture inventory of my fabric. Inserting one image at a time was not enjoyable and anything having to do with fabric should be enjoyable. I paid the $7 and in less than 2 minutes all 464 pictures were inserted, sized fit the cell and
ready for me to organize.
Sincerely,
A fabric addict =)

Filedrop is awesome! I'm using it to upload a lot of Storyboard frames in a spreadsheet. This app greatly reduces the time to do that. I had some questions about the features of the app and the
team responded very attentively and professionally. I love it. Thank you!

We manufacture industrial mixers, we are trying to reduce the amount of paperwork laying around in the workshop. It is working great for us. Took me quiet a bit of research before I came across you guys. Maybe you need to advertise somewhere because it’s a great program you have. ​

I was in desperate need of something like this and it is making my life so much easier. The customer service is next level! I don't know what hours they are keeping over there, but they responded to my emails at 11:00am, 11:00pm, and 3:00am +/-. Not only do they respond, but it is with a very detailed answer, instructions, links to diagrams and images, and alternate options as well. I could not be happier with a company than I am with this one right now. I know I probably sound like an uncle who is trying to help a family member, but I swear, I have never heard of this company till last week. I do contents inventory for attorneys and am switching from Excel to Google Sheets. I wanted to upload 1000's of images into each form and could not do it, until I found this product. Additionally, I needed FileDrop to do something I was not confident it could do. To be honest, I knew it was more of a Google Sheets need than a FileDrop need, but they provided detailed instructions anyway. With FireDrop allowing me to upload thousands of images at once, the way the photos work in my Sheet, and the help they provided with Sheets in regard to my unique request, I am totally satisfied. I could keep going, but I just realized how long this review is. If anyone from FileDrop reads this, I want to say Thank You for being so amazing!
