Feem 4.2 beta

Feem is a lightweight tool particularly developed to help you interact with others over a local network.

The program supports chatting with other users as well sharing data with them. Luckily, it allows transferring practically any file type, such as clips, songs, and documents. Its biggest advantage is that there are versions for most operating systems, which makes it ideal for sending files between different types of devices. Good news is that Feem has an incredibly straightforward visual design, which makes appropriate for any kind of user.

The tool has some undeniable advantages if you compare it with other similar products. First, it does not need an Internet connection to work. You can easily connect through the local router, and even when there is not one available, it is possible to start your own hotspot on your device and establish a peer-to-peer connection with others. Second, Feem can transfer data faster than other programs because it does not depend on the available bandwidth. Besides, it can operate in full-duplex mode, which allows sending and receiving data simultaneously. Third, the program protects the integrity of the information being transferred by encrypting it with TLS. Moreover, since the data is shared directly with your peers, there is no risk of its being available on third-party servers. Finally, it allows transferring not only individual files but entire folders as well. In this regard, it is great that there are no file size limits and it is possible to resume broken transfers.

In my opinion, Feem´s main limitations are related to its being appropriate for local communications only. However, this is precisely what also makes it faster and more private. Another inconvenience is that it is impossible to set a connection between two devices that are running different versions of the program.

All in all, Feem is light, easy to use, fast and reliable. Luckily, a basic edition of this product can be used for free. Moreover, there is also Pro edition with additional options, which is available through various licenses: Persona, Business, and Family.
