Secure and simple

One place for collecting files and information from clients

Most people default to email, spreadsheets, or cloud storage for file requests. You already know how much time that wastes. Files get lost, you can't track what's been submitted, and the endless back-and-forth delays projects and kills profitability.

Content Snare is file request software purpose-built for professional services. Accounting firms, law firms, mortgage brokers, and agencies use it to request files, documents, and information from clients through a secure, branded portal. Clients see what's needed, upload in one place, and get automatic reminders until they're done. Auto-save keeps their progress safe.

Unlike most file request software, Content Snare also captures answers to questions alongside file uploads. And you can share files back to clients through the same portal.

ISO 27001 certified. Used by 1,900+ companies in 103 countries to collect 500,000+ files and responses each month.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is file request software?

File request software lets you request specific files from clients through a link rather than email. Instead of attaching files back and forth, clients upload directly to a secure portal where you can see exactly what's been received and what's still outstanding. Good file request software also sends automatic reminders and lets you validate the files you receive.

Can clients upload files without creating an account?

Yes. Content Snare clients access their file request via a secure link. They don't need to sign up, create a password, or install anything. This removes the most common friction point that causes delays with file requests.

How do I send automatic reminders for outstanding file requests?

Content Snare sends automatic email and SMS reminders to clients who haven't completed their file request. You set the schedule once when you create the request, and reminders continue until the client finishes. Reminders stop automatically when everything is uploaded.

What's the best file request software for professional services?

Content Snare is purpose-built for professional services firms that need to collect files from clients on a recurring basis. It's used by accounting firms, law firms, mortgage brokers, and agencies to request tax documents, legal filings, loan documentation, and project files. ISO 27001 certified with auto-save, automatic reminders, and an approval workflow.

Is Content Snare secure for sensitive files and documents?

Yes. Content Snare is ISO 27001 certified with encryption in transit and at rest, per-company encryption keys, and role-based access controls. It's used by accounting firms, law firms, and financial services companies handling sensitive client information.

What's the difference between file request software and a file sharing tool?

File sharing tools like Dropbox or Google Drive are designed for sharing files with others. File request software like Content Snare is designed for collecting specific files from clients. You send a structured checklist, track progress, send automatic reminders, and approve or reject what clients submit. File sharing tools don't do any of that.
