A simple task like transferring a file from one computer to another may cause frustration sometimes, which can be avoided if you use the right tool. A good example of such a tool is NitroShare. Its appearance is simple, its functionality straightforward and it can save you valuable time. The application gives you the possibility of transferring files back and forth between computers, on a local network, at a moment's notice, without any effort.
NitroShare is free and open source and it takes only a few seconds to install it on a computer. It is available for Windows, Mac and Linux and it runes without any problems even with modest hardware. Furthermore, there is no need to install any kind of prerequisite tools or services.
The best part about NitroShare is the fact that you don't have to make any configurations to be able to transfer files. All you have to do is install and run the application on all computers. It will work silently in the background and when you need to transfer some data, you can do it right away, through a system tray icon.
The application provides separate options for sending files and folders. Once you choose one of these options, you will need to select the data you wish to send, on a standard browsing dialog, and select a destination computer. The application on the receiving end will save the data automatically, in a default or user-selected folder, without asking for any input. If you don't want to receive data you don't want, you can simply untick an option in the general settings menu to prevent the application from receiving anything.
Transferring files on a local network can't get any easier when using NitroShare.
Pros
Files can be transferred between computers quickly and easily. There is no need to make any network-related configurations before using the application. NitroShare is distributed as a free and open source application.

There are no obvious issues to address.
