Frequently Asked Questions
How can I receive content/assets from my clients?
Portals allow you to request and receive files from anyone in the world. They don’t need a MASV account and it won’t cost them a thing.
Read more about Portals.
How does MASV charge?
Our pricing model is simple and straightforward. It’s a flat $0.25/GB (USD) for all downloaded data and $0.10/GB/30 days of extended storage after the first 7 days (we give you 7 days for free). You are not charged for uploading unless you choose to store files past the 7 days.
We offer a money-back guarantee in the case of a problem with the download or failure due to an issue with MASV. Remember to configure your computer’s power-saving options so that your computer doesn’t go to sleep during yout upload or download. We recommend using the free MASV App which can easily recover when a system crashes or the Internet connection is unreliable.
My upload has stalled? What can I do?
There are two main reasons why an upload may stall. First, confirm the package has stalled vs stopped by confirming that your computer is not actually sending any more data.
If an upload stalls towards the end of a transfer (between 95-99%), the cause can usually be attributed to MASV having to re-upload past chunks of the upload. Because they have been uploaded already, our progress bar does not backtrack to take this into account.
If your transfer has stalled, we can help. Reach us on our chat when logged into your MASV account, or email [email protected]. We will need the Package Name and/or account or Portal you are uploading into.
My package has expired but I need to recover it
Once a package has expired in your account, it has been marked for deletion in our storage. For security reasons once a file has been deleted, we have no way of recovering it. With an upgraded pay-as-you-go account (not trial), we do allow you to extend the storage of any of your packages for whatever time period at a cost of $0.10/GB/30 days. The settings “Enable Extended Storage” in your Team Account settings.
I uploaded content into a Portal and I want to confirm that the files were delivered.
When files are successfully uploaded into a Portal, you may receive a receipt email confirming the file was delivered successfully, depending on the Portal owner’s preferences. If you don’t receive a confirmation email, you can reach out to the Portal owner. For security, the MASV team can not confirm or view any files that are uploaded into a Portal, only the Portal owner has access to these files.
Do you have an on-prem solution?
No. MASV is a cloud solution only at the moment.
I forgot my password. How can I login?
You can reset your MASV password by visiting https://app.massive.io/en/forgot_password
Does activity on the Desktop app show up in the web app and vice versa?
The MASV Desktop app is a standalone application which facilitates the transfers. Uploads completed in the desktop app will show up as a completed transfer on the web, but not vice-versa.
How does storage/archiving work?
MASV provides free storage for 7 days per package. If you need to extend a package longer than the free storage period, we charge $0.10/GB/month. Archiving a package simply removes the package from the dashboard’s main view. It can be displayed by toggling the Filters to show Archived packages. Learn more on our secure cloud storage page.
Can I tell if someone has downloaded a file I've sent them?
If a recipient has received a unique download link from MASV, the sender will be notified whenever the user starts the download. Package details will also show the number of times and the amount of data downloaded by each recipient/link for the package in question.
How do I track the status of a package sent?
You can track the status of a package by going to the Package Details from the Transfer History page for both packages sent and received.
