Three G2 badges from Fall cloud storage report 2026.

LucidLink is recognized as Leader in G2's Fall 2026 Cloud File Storage Grid® report. We’re also ranked #1 for customer satisfaction.

This recognition reflects the sentiments of LucidLink users, from creative and marketing teams collaborating across continents, to architecture firms managing massive CAD files in real time.

Our customers’ G2 reviews validate what we set out to build: a file streaming platform that gives teams, tools and agents instant access to files and lets them work together in real time, from anywhere.

What the G2 Grid® report measures

G2 is the world's largest tech marketplace and peer-to-peer review platform. The quarterly Grid® Report helps buyers understand the competitive landscape based on two key factors:

  • Satisfaction scores: how users rate their experience with ease of use, implementation, support and overall value

  • Market presence: a product's visibility, reach and scale in the market

Products in the Leader quadrant (👋)  are rated highly by users and have substantial market presence. This placement is earned entirely through customer reviews, not vendor claims.

Why teams choose LucidLink

Three reasons why LucidLink was named a G2 Leader in Fall 2026.

In the Fall 2026 report, LucidLink stood out for customers in three areas — satisfaction, ease and fast time to value:

  • #1 for customer satisfaction: LucidLink achieved a satisfaction score of 100, the highest in the Cloud File Storage category.

  • 91% of reviewers (and 96% of enterprise users) feel LucidLink is easy to do business with

  • Businesses (of any size) felt they got a return on investment in less than 9 months.

Here’s some examples of what customers are saying about LucidLink.

What our customers say

Improve performance with scalable efficiency

We use LucidLink to store all of our files, and it has given us better performance overall. With 13 offices and 300 employees, we can share work from anywhere, and our team can work from any location as long as they have an internet connection.

Brent Morris,IT Manager

Collaborate with teams across the globe

LucidLink lets our team of editors, monograph artists, colorists, audio engineers, and even account management work from a single source of truth. … The best part is that our staff and freelancers are no longer limited by geography. An editor can be in Indiana, VFX in Florida, mograph in LA, and the sound mix in New York, and it still feels like we’re all working in the same facility.

Michael H.,Senior Video Editor

Scale production and collaborate with ease

LucidLink is the only cloud storage product we've found with the desktop performance and scalability that our services require. It's a smart, reliable, elegantly designed solution with great support.

The features customers love

There are some recurring themes in our customer reviews. Here’s why teams keep choosing LucidLink.

On-demand access to files without downloading

No matter the file size, LucidLink streams only the portions of files you need, when you need them. Reviewers repeatedly describe using LucidLink feeling "like a local drive.” Teams can open 4K video timelines, complex CAD assemblies or layered design files and start working immediately.

Secure, real-time collaboration across distributed teams

Everyone works from the same files at the same time, without sync delays, VPN bottlenecks or version conflicts. Using one shared cloud filespace without any additional hardware means teams can get up and running quickly.

LucidLink also provides zero-knowledge security, encryption in transit and at rest and enterprise-grade permissions and access controls, so teams know their data is always secure. 

Fast access to large files

Open and edit massive files instantly from the cloud.

Integration with existing systems

Since LucidLink mounts as a drive, files are easily accessible across all operating systems (including Linux) in all the tools your team already uses. Any application that works with files works with LucidLink, including Premiere Pro, Avid, Photoshop or AutoCAD, just to name a few.

The ability to immediately access files without plugins or workflow changes is why 91% of our users rate LucidLink as easy to use.
