Ease of use, interface, connectivity, etc
File location is a little hard for me to use for some reason.
File storage for large music projects. iCloud is confusing.
It's easier to use than one drive or google drive.
It needs a view that will allow you to cull through files you don't need anymore.
I have a way to move files around that's quick and easy.
I love Dropbox. It allows me to organize all my photos into files and allows me to store more photos than my devices can store. Also allows me to access my Photos photos on one device instead of over multiple flash drives.
It takes a while to upload a bunch of photos and it gets kind of costly on the upgrades
It allows everybody to access your photos for projects
Collaboration and sharing cloud files with many
It gives access to only three devices at a time
I am able to share files with peers and colleagues
I love you can upload, email and send and receive files on the go. It's swift and easy, straight forward. It's easy to use and has countless features.
Honestly, it's a well rounded process and I have no complaints.
Accessing files where ever I am, no matter what I am doing I can always easily use the account and quickly work with business's to accomplish task
My favourite part about dropbox is our ability to archive old files for future use and the ease of sharing single files or whole folders with other team members. It makes collaboration seamless without the worry of having to assign sharing emails at the source. I also love that I can make older files live in the cloud without taking up space on my hard drive but be assured that they are safe. This makes annual archiving really easy!
I wish there were larger personal accounts for storage!
Dropbox solves our file storage and sharing issues and makes it easy to manage, search and find new and old items between multiple team members.

Password manager. Dislike is too strong of a word. I used it early on and hoped that it could replace LastPass. Perhaps I need to try again.
Ability to store content easily and access from anywhere. The ability to share with others as specified/needed is also a benefit.
Dropbox is easy and just works. It's like having an extra hard drive attached to the device..
More storage would be great. You can never have too much
I can share large files across multiple devices with ease
Dropbox makes it easy to store files, photos, and videos using a mobile, desktop, or laptop. It's compatible with Windows and Mac. The large storage capacity alleviates my overloading my phone and computer's hard drives. I use it for all my files, family photos, sentimental items, and vlogs.
I wish the the price was lower but it's comparable to other cloud storage services
I am a social media content creator so I need tons of storage on my phone to record. Also, I love taking photos. My phone runs out of storage so I use Dropbox to backup my vlogs and photos. Additionally, I've recently decided to convert all my files to digital to reduce paper clutter. With Dropbox Paper feature it makes scanning my files from my phone easy and convenient. I don't need an external scanner although Dropbox app is compatible with my Cannon scanner.
I love how simple and intuitive DropBox is! I've been a member/subscriber for years and find DropBox is the best in the industry for storing digital media. Its also super easy to share such files and create organized folders to better manage content.
There really aren't too many things to dislike about Dropbox in my personal opinion. It really has saved me many times. The one thing I wish it had (and maybe it does have this feature but I dont know about it) but would love to be able to add keywords and tags to photos to easily search for content (without the keywords necessarily being in the file name itself). This would save me a lot of time searching but otherwise I love DropBox!
The problem is finding a place to store impotant media and files to be utilzied in the future and DropBox solves this problem by allowing me to easily organize files and media within folders and also search for such folders as needed. This has benefited me by saving me lots of time, helped me to find important files in a quick time frame, and also share slideshows, videos, and other content with clients, colleagues, managment etc.
It offers a free storage option in the cloud to have all of my important files available anywhere.
It costs money to store more than the free plan option.
file access anywhere
My team and I tend to prefer to work remotely. Dropbox allows us to easily collaborate, share files, and all have access from anywhere! I love being on a jobsite and being able to pull documents from my phone.
My only concern in using Dropbox is ensuring documents can be recovered if a teammate deletes something in error. Therefore, I still backup all my documents on my personal documents.
In working remote and on jobsites, accessing files from a teammate can take time. Dropbox allows all of my teammates to access files from their desktop or phones!
I like it because I can store documents online and its easy to use.
It easily gets full for work documents. Ease of integration.
storage
Easy to use cloud sharing. I love the security, the speed of transferring files from device to device. The ease of data management. The fact that it is fully usable for my needs even using the basic mode. Easy to download and use on multiple devices which means it integrates seamlessly into my daily work flow. I use Dropbox multiple times per to week to share files across devices and social media platforms. Very easy to set up.
The only downside is for me is the limited space and instillation on devices on the basic plan, though I know that I can upgrade at any time to solve this.
Moving files between different devices. means that i don't have to load things onto USBs and can easily move files from my computer to phone for social media upload.
First it is easy to use from uploading whatever files you want and then organizing them is a very simple thingas well. One of my favorite things is the fact that I can share individual files or folders with just a link. I can select what users have permissions to wdit or not. Dropbox is easy for a beginner or a professional. Ive been using dropbox way before cellphones and all there other clouds. Drop box has always been there.others come and go. I use my Dropbox for what is important to me. I made sure every computer i installed windows on had a Dropbox on the desktop. The ease of file sharrong and the security cant be beat in my opinion.
Nothing that I can remember. Never had any issues.
Transferring files from one pc to another without direct hook up or a memory stick.
The options availables to use the app and the features that offers to easily open and edit files
So far i dont have any bad feedback about it.
Is helping me to open files with a better resolution something that other apps dont offer
Very neat to work with, and easy to understand how to use it with lots of features.
Only thing to dislike is the idea that it costs money.....
Saving all personal folders In a easy to locate way
I am able to access my documents f anywhere. When changes are made it's automatically updated. The phone app is also user friendly.
Nothing, when k discovered Dropbox I was able to stop buying thumb drives. It's my life easier.
I own a business and have a very busy work life. It helps me to keep all things in one place. I am also able to save anything I need to keep and access later. I no longer have a thumb drive bag 😂 just need access to my drive. Which can be accessed online and offline. As well as auto updates.
The ease of use and accessibility from any and all devices.
Nothing. I'm not sure I could make a recommendation on how to improve it.
The fact that I can access all of my documents from anywhere and any device is key. And I love the little badge on the document icon that shows me that it's been sync'd.
