PC Link

PC Link is a handy and reliable program intended for file sharing inside a Local Area Network (LAN). It also embeds a small chat where you can communicate with your friends.

In order to successfully send and receive files, the users that are exchanging data must have PC Link installed on their computers. The whole sharing process is based on a list of IP addresses, which are memorized by the program automatically so that you don’t get asked to specify them every time.

PC Link adopts a user-oriented approach through a friendly interface that is easy to work with. It is divided into several sections corresponding to the address book, the files to be sent, details related to the completion of the sharing process, as well as the chat section, where text messages can be written and sent in live mode.

In order to share a file with another user, it is mandatory for your recipient to be online, otherwise the process will halt. After you’ve created the list of IP addresses you intend to exchange data with, select the one of interest and the files to be sent and press the button that will initiate the transfer.

PC Link provides a set of indicators that will reveal whether the transfers have been successful. These statistics will also contain details such as file size, bytes sent, the progress ratio and the speed.

PC Link comes across as a simple, yet efficient application that can arrange for data sharing in a complication-free manner. It could use improvements in the chat section, so as to provide emoticons or the possibility to customize the text layout.
