Compare Dropbox with other popular tools in the same category.
All docs in one site, categorized, easy to find
Still difficult to share And review files w certain people
No business problems, primarily used it for court
I can connect to all of my files on all of my devices securely and quickly.
It is more expensive than other storage services. I can't see an image of what is in the file.
Allowing me access to my files from my tablet and iPhone, as well as, from my desktop computers and laptop computers.
It is easy to store and share photos with clients.
There is nothing so far that has been negative for me.
Getting photos to client without outrageous fees and pay walls.
I like the ability to quickly share a large archive of documents quickly so students can work through materials at their own pace. I also find it very useful for backing up materials and quickly accessing my documents from a new device.
I am sometimes frustrated when Dropbox has to compete with other applications for space on my screen. It would be better if Dropbox was always part of the default hierachy from the open or save menus.
I often need to share large folders full of documents and want the user to be able to access the documents of their choice at their convenience. Dropbox makes this easy
The price is cleary cheap compare to other cloud storage providers like google drive, icloud and onedrive it is avaiable in crossplatform i can have it in windows, mac, iphone and android
there are 3 things i dislike 1. starter storage subscripton is 3TB but many users and also me (nowadays) does'nt need that much of storage. having a plan of 1TB would be very helpfull 2.Limited Offline Access on Free Plan which is very annoning to use and check if the person is using to check the quaity of dropbox 3.Storage Space Can Fill Up Quickly.
here are the three benifites from dropbox 1.Collaboration Made Easy: it is very easy to work with friends and collegues by sharing data without any error and the best part i like in this category is comenting system as it is helpfull discussing specific parts of a document. 2.Reliable File Syncing: Dropbox's file syncing is fast and reliable. I never have to worry about whether my files are up to date across different devices. It's a real time-saver for me, who is constantly use different devices. 3.Version History: The version history feature has saved me more than once. Being able to revert to a previous version of a document is a lifesaver for a software engineer like me.
I love knowing that my files are safe in dropbox and I can access them anywhere. Customer Service Reps are great!
Confusing to find files for my projects at times.
They are not helping me with any issues at this time.
The ability to sync my laptop and workstation in realtime regardless of location (although it will be much faster with LAN sync). Additional plus is the ability to revert accidental file changes up to 30 days.
The inability to have more than 3TB space with a single user account (my use case is exactly that)
Syncronising work files across devices
Easy to use, stable file sharing platform. Interface is very simple, and even with free plan you get a lot of space.
Additional storage is a bit on the expensive side comparing to the other file sharing platforms
I needed stable and safe cloud storage platform, exactly what I got with Dropbox.
What I like most about using Dropbox is that I can share my files in the cloud, I can store my data without the need to use emails or USB memories (which are almost always damaged) or external or internal disks that are also often damaged and are very expensive
The only thing that I do not like about Dropbox Business is that it can only be used if you have access to the internet, and the limits of the free account are very short
The problems that I have solved with Dropbox Business are the ability to save my infrmacion in the cloud without having to use all the space of the hard disks of my pc
File sync'ing and remote storage done right. Everything just works. No lags, crashes, missing files, etc. You can just put files there and know that it will be safely kept.
Some old features were phased out such as the designation of certain folders as Backup folders and the unlimited file history function.
Keeping files in sync when multiple team members are working on the same file.
