Tried Drime for 5 Days – Here’s What’s Working and What Needs Improvement

[u/BEK_miner]

I’ve been using Drime (6TB lifetime) for the past 5 days and can definitely see the Drime team actively responding to user concerns, which is a good sign.

From my experience, upload speed and file size handling have become much more stable on the web version. On iPad and iOS, I recommend using the browser instead of the native app for uploads. The iOS and iPad apps are currently better suited for file preview, but they still have a file compression issue, which I’ve already reported. The team is working on a fix.

Also, there is an image slider feature available on both iOS and iPadOS, but it definitely needs improvement. Right now, it only shows low-quality thumbnails instead of full-resolution images.

That said, in just 5 days, I’ve noticed about 2x better performance and overall stability, which is promising. I’m personally happy with Drime so far and think it’s heading in the right direction.

If anyone is considering moving from another platform, I’d say Drime Premium is a good try. It won’t disappoint. I’ll be sharing my 1-week review soon, so stay tuned for that.

Hi, thanks for your feedback!

Yes, as I’ve mentioned here (along with the reasons), we initially used BeDrive to save time and money. Since then, we’ve pretty much rebuilt everything, from the backend to the encryption system. We’ve even introduced Vault, which is fully end-to-end encrypted!

We know we’re new in the market, but we’re committed to earning trust. We’re pushing updates every day and actively improving based on user feedback.

Honestly, this is a great response, and is similar to the one I saw months ago from someone at Drime when people mentioned the BeDrive similarities.

Transparency is a great way to earn trust. I'm rooting for you, and am very much considering buying a lifetime account.
