Good when folder structure needs to stay intact
ZIP archives are often the easiest way to preserve file organization, naming, and nested assets in one handoff. That matters for source packages, exported projects, and multi-file deliverables.
ZIP delivery is not only about file size. It is often about keeping many related files together in one package with the folder structure still intact. A temporary link is usually the cleanest way to hand that archive off.

ZIP archives are often the easiest way to preserve file organization, naming, and nested assets in one handoff. That matters for source packages, exported projects, and multi-file deliverables.
When the file package is meant to move once from one person or team to another, a single archive plus one temporary link is usually simpler than building a shared workspace for a one-time transfer.
Use a temporary ZIP link when the archive only needs to be downloaded once or a few times. If multiple people need to keep editing the package over time, a shared storage workflow is the better fit.
These are the questions people ask when they need to send a packaged folder or multi-file archive without turning the ZIP into an attachment problem.
Yes. Upload the ZIP to SendUp and send the resulting download link instead.
Project folders, source exports, document bundles, website packages, asset packs, and backups are all common examples.
A ZIP link is better when the archive is meant for one-time delivery and should stay as a single packaged download instead of becoming part of a long-term shared workspace.
Yes. You can set an expiry time and optionally add a password before sharing the archive.
