dosya.dev vs MEGA
MEGA's 20 GB free tier is one of the most generous anywhere - we say so in the table below. The comparison starts when you actually move files: quotas, link controls, protocols and teams. Here is the honest breakdown.
The short version
Choose dosya.dev if...
- You download and share heavily - no egress fees, and no metering at all on paid plans
- You want link passwords, expiry and download limits without paying for them
- You want S3, WebDAV, rclone and API access, and a choice of 46 regions
- You run a team - roles and audit logs are on every plan
Choose MEGA if...
- You want the biggest free storage tier going - 20 GB beats 5 GB, full stop
- You mostly store and rarely share or download in bulk

Where dosya.dev pulls ahead
No transfer quotas, ever
MEGA's free tier meters downloads with a rolling transfer quota - heavy downloading pauses until it refreshes. dosya.dev has no download or transfer quotas on any plan and no egress fees: a link that gets popular keeps serving, from the nearest of 200+ edge servers.
Link controls without the upsell
On MEGA, password-protected links and link expiry are paid features. On dosya.dev they come with every plan, free included, alongside download limits and file requests for collecting files from clients.
Protocols your tools already speak
dosya.dev exposes an S3-compatible API and native WebDAV alongside rclone, a REST API and a CLI. MEGA's equivalents route through its own MEGAcmd tooling. And each dosya.dev workspace picks its storage region from 46 regions on 6 continents.
Built for teams, not just accounts
dosya.dev workspaces include unlimited members, five built-in roles, custom roles and full audit logs on every plan. MEGA reserves team administration for its Business plan.
Where MEGA is a better fit
Free storage volume. MEGA's 20 GB free tier is four times dosya.dev's 5 GB, and if parking files at zero cost is the whole job, MEGA wins that contest outright. Its paid tiers are competitive per gigabyte too - Pro I is €9.99 a month for 2 TB.
Moving off MEGA takes an afternoon
Desktop app
Drag your MEGA sync folder into the dosya.dev desktop app and let sync do the rest.
rclone
rclone speaks to both services. One command copies your whole MEGA cloud into dosya.dev.
Remote downloads
Paste direct links and dosya.dev fetches the files server-side, without using your connection.
dosya.dev vs MEGA, answered
Is dosya.dev a good MEGA alternative?
If you actually move files around, yes. MEGA's free 20 GB is one of the most generous tiers anywhere - the table says so plainly - but its free tier meters downloads with a rolling transfer quota, and link passwords and expiry are paid features. dosya.dev puts link controls, S3 and WebDAV access and team workspaces with roles and audit logs on every plan, and meters nothing at all on paid plans. Our free plan does have a daily download allowance (10 GB across share links, 5 GB per API or protocol credential), which resets every 24 hours rather than rolling.
MEGA gives me 20 GB free. Why is dosya.dev's free plan smaller?
It is - MEGA's 20 GB beats dosya.dev's 5 GB, and if free storage volume is the whole contest, MEGA wins it. The trade is in what surrounds the storage: dosya.dev's free plan includes link passwords, expiry and download limits, file requests, and transfers with no per-file size cap, with a 10 GB daily share-link download allowance instead of a rolling quota.
What is MEGA's transfer quota and does dosya.dev have one?
MEGA meters how much you can download or transfer in a rolling window on the free tier - heavy downloading pauses until the quota refreshes. dosya.dev charges no egress fees on any plan and meters nothing on paid plans. Free has a fixed daily allowance - 10 GB across share links and 5 GB per API or protocol credential - that resets in full every 24 hours.
Can I move my files from MEGA to dosya.dev?
Yes. Drag your MEGA sync folder into the dosya.dev desktop app, use rclone (it supports both services) for a scripted copy, or paste direct links into remote downloads and dosya.dev fetches them server-side.
How do the prices compare?
MEGA bills in EUR: Pro Lite is €4.99/mo for 400 GB and Pro I is €9.99/mo for 2 TB, converted by your bank. dosya.dev bills flat USD prices from $3.99/mo for 100 GB. On raw price per GB the two are close; the difference is quotas, protocols and team features.
Does dosya.dev have team features like MEGA?
dosya.dev includes team workspaces with five built-in roles, custom roles and audit logs on every plan. MEGA offers team administration on its Business plan.
