I have a bunch of corporate clients. Their firewalls are locked down pretty hard so the only way I have found to get files to them is to upload a zip file to some private web storage by FTP. They can click and download. It works but it doesn't look great - also I pay for FTP storage and my hosting package is up for renewal so I'm looking at other options.
Amazon S3 looks a good substitute. Anybody have any experiences of it? I think my main worry is that despite its name, it's a really complicated product and I can imagine suddenly getting a massive bill from Amazon for using things I don't even understand
Typically I'll be delivering a 50 meg zip file of jpegs once or twice a week. So maybe 2GB through the year. What options are there?
(BTW Dropbox won't work, GDrive won't work, OneDrive definitely won't work, WeTransfer is blocked - pretty much everything you can suggest that isn't FTP of ZIP won't work . I'm also not looking for an all in one service - I just need to send 2GB through some heavy duty firewalls.)
