I love that dropbox is the perfect companion to a modern workplace. It is really easy to see all my files and important images all together in one place for me to work on. I also love that my account is perfectly synced across whatever devices I use and is really easy to access from anywhere. Dropbox provides me with ample storage to store all my work in one place.
The only issue with Dropbox is that it is expensive. It would be better if the storage size was increased a little for the free users. Other than that, the software is absolutely amazing and I do not have any further complaints.
The most important problem that Dropbox helps me solve is that of being able to access my files from anywhere and also being able to share them with anyone from anywhere. I do not have to work on my personal computer all the time to have access to them. Dropbox has saved me a lot of times by helping me restore the important files that get deleted accidentally. I don't know what I would do without this software.
The integration with various other solutions like 1Password is very good.
There is not much to dislike about this product, only maybe the offline support
Having my files available everywhere is very important.
its free and most people use it if you arent moving large files, you don't have to pay anything
I often want to store more than the free 10GB, but I'm not sure the paid monthly is worth it to me in the long run.
moving files and sharing files with multiple people that exceed the email threshhold
We can store, secure and collaborate of documents in one place through dropbox Easy to share files to concerned person with authorization
Its full features are a little cost-effective. Search functionality is not properly working with a vast database
Files shared with concern person only
Easy to share with anyone Integration connector available with almost all integration platforms, hence making it widely accepted in organization Drag and drop option
Costing - As the whole organization starts using this product, the cost also starts growing. Since dropbox is a standalone application, lots of time, it fails to compete with other tools which provide an array of things. For, eg. Google gives you storage along with whole business suites. In such cases, other applications get preference over dropbox
Since the email retention policy is getting smaller, we have to use a storage platform, and that is where dropbox comes in makes it easier to store files as well share easily among teammates
I love being able to access my files from anywhere through Dropbox. It's easy to sync files from my computer to my Dropbox, upload, download and share files!
Some specific types of files require a download to open which is not so convenient, but this is minor.
Dropbox allows me to share big files with colleagues easily. The benefit is I can store my files in Dropbox folders and share them with different colleagues as needed.
Dropbox enables a user to collectively store files and programs in one place for an entire team or network.
I wouldn't say I like that larger files may time additional time to upload versus competing for software.
My team is currently using dropbox to solves business complications and drive business results to find efficiencies.
it is cloud storage. so obviously our files are much safer than putting files in our local. and we can share files easily with enyone.
dropbox is not much secure for business purpose. because data encryption is limited here.
we can access our files from anywhere even when our laptop is far away from us. also I can edit share the content easily.
I love Dropbox because 1. It is FREE 2. It is easy to share content with customers/friends
I dislike the deletion process of full account if it gets too full. I don't want to lose all my old content but have nowhere to put it.
I have solved communication issues to be able to work on our own schedules but keep track and feel together about the teamwork.
access to large files wherever I am at without worry of losing a usb or forgetting it at home.
you need internet access to access your files or pictures etc so you need to make sure where you are you always have internet access
large file sending, access to delicate documents, and the ability to always access my computer wherever I am
I like that dropbox allows you to upload larger files and share it with your team. I work on pdf and illustrator files that are large and my team and I use Dropbox to share the file.
There is nothing I really dislike about Dropbox.
Problems solved are being able to share larger files with my coworkers and team. We also share files with our clients from time to time.
The thing I like most about Dropbox is the ease of access that you have when using it. I like that I can use either the website or the app to save and access my information. There are many times that I have found it helpful to be able to access the documents that I had saved on my computer from my phone.
The thing I dislike most about Dropbox is the limit of 2 GB of storage without paying for the entire plan. The times that I need to save and access Dropbox vary depending on the month and the type of work I am currently doing, so having the whole plan at all times is sometimes more than I need.
The problem I am solving with Dropbox is being able to access my files from anywhere in the office. When I need to go to another computer or office space, I can save my files to Dropbox and access them in other places. This is great because I no longer have to carry around any form of an external hard drive.
I love to store my documents and pictures on Dropbox. It also helps me to share my picture folders with my family and friends. I can decide what to share and what not to share. The other party can download or view only. I can access my account anywhere in the world on any device.
The only thing I dislike is I have to purchase extra space and its expensive.
If my laptop or computer crashes I can always retrieve my docs from Dropbox when I store over the cloud.
At first, i would like to say that the quality of service offered by Dropbox is excellent and outstanding. I can access all the files from anywhere as i want. I am using it in both personal and professional purposes. The cusromer service is awesome and easy to reach.
It should increase it’s free account storage capacity and it is not easy to determine how much storage i used.
Dropbox is a platform that helped us accessing and storing files easily. It saved our time.
The simple as pie mechanics coupled with super-secure feeling that it's all going to be safe!
Very little - in fact, nothing. It all works very seamlessly and can't complain about anything to be honest
Keeping all my files synced across iPad, iPhone & MacBook - all good!
Easy to share files/folders with people outside the organization, even if they don't have a DropBox log in they can view what we send. Search function works well to find what you're looking for.
Wish it had the ability to tag files and folders with keywords for easier retreival.
Helps organize thousands of files for easy access by the whole team.
Super easy to use with our small team. The best feature is the "easy transfer" to safely share documents without giving access to your personal/business dropbox.
When you download it onto your computer, it takes up a lot of space! Also, granting limited access to a user is difficult because you have to go through each folder. Our business has many folders. I wished there was an easier way to pick and choose on one page accessibility. I also wished it was similar to one drive that multiple people can edit one working document.
Honestly, I love dropbox. It's the easiest cloud service for our team of 10!
I love how you can save all your photos in organized folders and also share them with others.
It can be a little difficult to organize your photos if using it on a mobile device.
I like how you can share folders and create folders of photos to send to people and to save to help organize.
It's so easy to store files, plus an easy interface
Nothing! I have never had a bad experience with Dropbox
I've solved losing the risk of no longer having access to my files. I also find it easy to share on Dropbox
I send several big files so it makes my experience that much easier
I think the program is developed perfectly
Sharing with multiple people at once and having restrictions
I like that anyone can use it, I have my sales team upload all their daily info into it and I can check it through out the day or at the end of the day. They're they're missing something it's easy for me to see and pick up on.
There isn't anything in particular that I dislike about Dropbox.
Instead of sending texts back and forth, drop box has created an area that I can keep my work lift separately from everyday lift. I have all my sales members upload to drop box instead of sending me their pictures of daily work to my phone, it's created a less stress environment for me and my employees
I love having the ability to share large projects and collaborate via Dropbox with multiple team members.
When collaborating on a Word or Excel document at the same time and saving simultaneously, duplicates are created.
Dropbox makes project management and collaboration virtually an easy task.
Dropbox is wonderful. As professors, we can share documents, meeting notes, and exams. Our students can put their completed assignments into Dropbox, and it allows us to see when it was completed and uploaded. Otis a great tool.
I have nothing negative to say about Dropbox. It is so useful and user-friendly.
We know when an assignmnpent is turned in late, and there is no argument from students because Dropbox time-stamps everything.
I like that I can choose what people can do with the documents, whether view, download or edit, or upload.
The view of some of the documents sometimes gets confusing.
My customers were not able to download our full program before because the files were to large. Dropbox gives them an easy and simple option to download or view our product.
The ability to store and retrieve files on the go is a great feature to have. It helps a lot in keeping.
At this very moment, I don't think I dislike anything about the software. The UI and the learning curve is simple, so it's a great software to have,.
I am solving problems related to the storage of important documents and retrieve them whenever required. This benefit is the MVP of this software in my personal opinion.
Using the sharing features is why I started but now I also use it for notes on files and specific projects. Its been great using it!
Download and upload depending on my device is slow but they cant control that. Mostly wifi but just seems slow when using DB.
Sharing photos and building projects is our main focus.
It is really easy to share files and emails directly.
Honestly, I don't have any dislikes using this software.
We are utilizing file shares more easily.
Simple and easy to use. Works reliably -even on various networks.
I can't say I dislike anything. It works the way it should.
Having access to documents and the ability to share those documents.
I've used dropbox for years to organize, transfer and send client files, I love the ability to sync dropbox to me PC for fast and easy uploading and sync
The fact that even though the program stores in the cloud it still takes up file space on my PC
QUICK AND EASY FILE DELIVERY
passport protection and features like vault
UI can be improved to be more better and search functionality can be enhanced more
storage and universal accessbility
