Hi,

I have a client that is interested with this plugin. But he is worried about speed and performance. Before we decide to buy this plugin, we need to make sure about the following:

1. Is there any impact to website performance with having a large amount of files on the file manager? We are expecting 50GB+ of files to store with this plugin.
2. Is there any impact to website performance when uploading large files? (uploading GB size)
3. Is there a progress indicator when uploading ? (I know this is basic, but we need to make sure it shows when uploading large files)
4. Is there any upload file size limit on the plugin?

Looking forward to you response.

Thank you.

Hi,

Thanks for contacting us here about this extension.

1. Is there any impact to website performance with having a large amount of files on the file manager? We are expecting 50GB+ of files to store with this plugin.

No, you can upload as many large files as you want. It depends on your server side.

2. Is there any impact to website performance when uploading large files? (uploading GB size)

Yes, I think it should take time to upload large files.

3. Is there a progress indicator when uploading ? (I know this is basic, but we need to make sure it shows when uploading large files)

Yes, we have Loading bar while uploading.

4. Is there any upload file size limit on the plugin?

Yes, you can adjust it at Main settings tab.

By the way, do you also support file management from storage service such as Amazon S3?
We are considering to host the files in a separate S3 server, but would like to have the plugin manage the files still, would it be possible?

Hi,

Thanks for getting back to me with more information.

I'm sorry this feature is not implemented yet. We'll note that for the future version to come.

Cheers,
