YouSendIt Surpasses Three Million Registered Users

YouSendIt released some stats today about their userbase. This represents 300% user growth since September of this year. The company has also experienced over 200% growth in paid subscribers during the same period.

I have used YouSendIt for a while now and find it easy-to-use for both sender and receiver. Basically you “email” large files by using their service as the host for the file.

From the release:

“The uptake in usage of our new features indicates that business users trust YouSendIt to deliver high value, critical files,” said Ivan Koon, CEO of YouSendIt. “Professional users are increasingly taking advantage of features such as password protection, and branded communications. We will continue to introduce easy to use business features every month throughout 2007.”

According to a survey of 2,000 YouSendIt customers, 80% of small and medium sized businesses have experienced problems with email attachments, 68% have had emails bounce due to attachment size limits, and 68% of business users have burned and shipped CDs and DVDs because files were too big to send via email.

Knowledge workers and professionals in the creative services industry rely on YouSendIt to deliver large and often time-critical files around the world. YouSendIt currently serves professional photographers and videographers, ad agencies, web design firms, audio and video production studios, design consultants, digital printers and many more professionals that need to send and receive large files.

Another popular service in this area is DropSend, which is currently on the market.
