O&O FileDirect

O&O FileDirect. Secure file delivery without compromise

Anyone who sends files today is often faced with a difficult decision: Either they use large cloud services that store data permanently – or they do without convenience because sensitive documents should not be stored “somewhere”. With O&O FileDirect, you no longer have to choose. Our service combines the simplicity of a web tool with the security of German servers and true client-to-client encryption. Sending files has never been so easy – or so secure.

Maximum encryption. Your data, only for your recipients

At O&O FileDirect, security begins even before shipping. True client-to-client encryption encrypts files already on the sender’s device and can only be decrypted by the recipient. Unauthorized access – even by the provider – is technically excluded. No backdoor access, no exceptions. This architecture makes O&O FileDirect the ideal solution for confidential documents such as contracts, medical documents, project files or sensitive photos. Your data never travels unprotected.

German servers, full GDPR compliance. A locational advantage for your security

Data transfers via O&O FileDirect are carried out exclusively via servers in Germany, which ensures a particularly high standard of security and data protection. Unlike many international cloud services, no data is transferred to the US or to globally distributed server locations. Instead, users benefit from strict German data protection laws, full GDPR compliance, and the principle that no files are stored permanently.

You retain sole control over your data at all times and determine who gets access and how long it lasts. Additional security features such as optional password protection, customizable expiration dates, and detailed access logging ensure that even sensitive information remains protected at all times. This is a decisive advantage, especially for companies, authorities and industries with increased compliance requirements – a special government tariff is even available for government institutions.

Simply in the browser. Transparent prices & ready to go

O&O FileDirect can be used directly in the browser, without installation or configuration. You open the web interface, select the desired files and share the generated link with the recipients – it couldn’t be easier. It doesn’t matter whether you work on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS or Android: O&O FileDirect works completely cross-platform and without restrictions. The pricing model is also deliberately designed to be transparent and fair. The use is free of charge up to a file size of about 1 to 2 gigabytes, depending on the respective registration.

Flexible plans are available for regular or larger transfers: the Personal plan allows up to 2 GB per file and a total sending volume of 50 GB, while the Professional plan supports unlimited file sizes, up to 10 terabytes per transfer, and unlimited recipients. There are tailor-made licenses for authorities and public institutions, including free sharing. This makes O&O FileDirect ideal for private users who occasionally want to send files as well as for professional users with high requirements.

O&O FileDirect is therefore suitable for both fast private transfers and professional data exchange processes with high requirements. This makes O&O FileDirect suitable for both fast private exchange and professional environments with high data volumes.
