About

UploadThing is an open source file upload solution designed for full-stack TypeScript applications. It simplifies the process of adding file uploads by allowing developers to define File Routes that specify the types of files allowed, their sizes, and quantities. It provides SDKs for various frameworks, including Next.js, Astro, SolidStart, SvelteKit, and Nuxt, as well as backend adapters for Express, Fastify, H3, and others. Client-side uploads are facilitated through components and hooks, enabling seamless integration with frontend frameworks like React and Vue. UploadThing emphasizes a balance between security and simplicity by handling authentication on the developer's server while managing the upload process on its own infrastructure. This approach allows for server-side authorization without the need to process files on the developer's server.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I appreciate that Filestack offers an easy integration via API, which really simplifies the process for me. I like how it abstracts away the file transformation bit, including functions like file resize, compress, and convert transformations. Filestack's built-in validation and security provide peace of mind, and I'm impressed by their cloud storage and CDN solutions. As someone constantly deciding between building things in-house or using third-party solutions, Filestack makes outsourcing file handling, storage, and CDN an attractive option.
  • Features a proprietary Content Ingestion Network (CIN) designed to make uploads, especially mobile uploads more reliable. Transformation tools via API. I can easily transform, resize, convert, optimize, and apply effects to images, videos, and documents before they are delivered. This includes format conversions like WEBP to JPG, In addition powerful AI features capabilities like object detection, explicit/unsafe content detection, image tagging, OCR.
  • Handles uploads, conversions, storage & delivery in one API — saves tons of time and reduces dev headaches.
  • Filestack makes uploading files so much easier. Its AI capabilities, like auto-tagging and OCR, save a lot of time, and the CDN support loads files quickly. Filestack is a great choice for smooth file handling!
  • I love that it has loads of source integrations, Built-in CDN, and AI features

Cons

  • Pricing is a very minor concern, for smaller usage it’s fine, but as file volume increases, the costs can mount up Onboarding is straightforward for basic use, but when trying to handle more specific requirements, I had to spend extra time understanding certain parts.
  • Complex workflows require to study closely the documentation to know everything that Filestack offer. in the early day it's important to monitor the billing to understand how much it cost. in particular when using CPU heavy features like AI and converting/resizing.
  • Limited free plan, some features are locked early.
  • Filestack gets expensive as your project grows. While the cost may be a concern for small teams or startups, the performance and reliability can justify it for bigger projects.
  • Filestack gets expensive as the project grows, and the cost can constrain the budget. Also, the docs are lacking
