Easy to use and ability to incorporate the features on any platform to have readily available. I use it everyday.
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.
How convenient it is to access my documents. I have it set up where I can access them on my computer, tablet, and phone. Before, I always had to emial myself individual documents.
I have two accounts-- a personal account and one associated with my college. My personal account is almost full, but I thought I was saving my college papers on my college account. I just need to sit down and figure out what I'm doing wrong before my files stop backing up.
Having common access to documents.
Storage ability as well as pricing. I like how the app allows me to seamlessly sync across laptop and mobile.
Wish teams could be used for a cheaper cost.
Allowing me to share client work easily
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
Easy access to files and sharing it with others
Pricing should be reduced it get very expensive for college students
Easy access to files
Viszonlag gyors az elérés és általában gyorsan is be lehet jelentkezni
Kevés a free tároló hely, a fizetős terület ár/érték aránya nem jó
A fotókat amiket feltöltök könnyen elérhetem
Access to everything, anywhere, all the time
Would like a discount each year I re-sign up for dropbox
Large file transfer
Dropbox always gives us 2 GB of Free Space. It's good for us small businesses.
I think if Dropbox gives 5 GB of Free Space. It's for good.
No problem Facing
It stores all files my boss and i need and more.
Trying to figure out wich dropbox belonged to my boss and which dropbox was mine on the main screen of my internet and on my desktop is a little confusing, simply because you can add drop box on so many different apps. It is something for me to get use to, but definitely is NOT A FLAW, it is something I am going to have to get use too.
I can store all my different type of files all in one place.
It helps me store, save and easily share my APK files to my clients, this is one of the most useful integration that other doesn't allow! Since I started using drop box, I can share my file links, upload easily without error! It really worth trying... I could you rate you more than 10stars, for saving me the stress of creating a paid website! Thanks so much Dropbox
Limited storage, please increase this for us... Thanks though
It helps me easily share my file links to my clients without any complain... I am an app developer.. With drop box I can upload and easily share the application link.
I have used Dropbox since approximately 2008 to synchronize folders and files between multiple workstations at my medical office and my home office. As a specialist in sleep medicine, it was the only way to easily organize all my work and provide the best patient care that I could. I am also a photographer and Dropbox was able to help me maintain all my software and correspondence and many of the commercial photographic albums that my clients required. All in all, I was able to synchronize everything between my laptop, my two workstations at home and multiple workstations in multiple clinics in Western Canada.
Recently, the Canadian government has recommended that physicians not use Dropbox because it is a US product with servers based in the United States. HIPPA is a US regulation that does not apply to Canada. The concern seems to be that US regulators theoretically could poke through all the patient files and destroy any semblance of confidentiality. In going even further, the Ministry of Health in British Columbia recently passed legislation regulating the necessity for all patient records of BC residents to only reside on computers physically present in the province of British Columbia. Personally, this is a lot of "hooey" as my mother used to say, or "rubbish" as the Brits like to say but it's part of an ongoing anti-US climate which has been purveys of for the past three decades. Having worked both in Canada, the US, the UK, Europe and the Middle East over my medical career, both Canada and the UK have become virulently anti-American from a government standpoint. It really is distressing.
Well the business issue is that I have to make a living and I do so by taking care of patients in my specialist sleep medicine practice. Because I work out of four different clinics scattered across British Columbia plus out of my home-based medical office on Vancouver Island, my multiple workstations have to be synchronized identically in terms of all of my correspondence, notes, files and sleep studies. Dropbox has done this from day one.
The ability to share photo and video files to multiple team members at the same time. Team members are able to collaborate and make adjustments without having to use email.
When multiple Dropbox accounts are used it will use the storage from both accounts.
Sharing files between multiple concepts and servers
I like that I have full control over what someone can access or edit the files. It is much easier to use than their competition. I can simply drag and add files and create a link to share within 1 minute. Instantly sharing files anywhere from my phone.
It took me a while to learn it compared to others such as onedrive, but once I got the hang of it is simple. i do not like the app on the computer so i work through the folders.
I can easily share large files such as architecture plans and other zip files. This is a game changer.
I can drop a file and send the link without worrying about maxing out email storage capability
Nothing except sometimes there is an additional permission that is required that might not necessarily have been given when the original file was shared
Keeping email limits in check, not worrying about whether a file went through or not
Back up data very quickly on many platforms and devices
Recent updates on the iPhone App no longer cover the live photo image format to mov video
I can view photos taken on Iphone to other devices such as PC, Android and IPad
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.
I like the ease of use and availability of my documents
I don't have complaints about Dropbox. I like it's ease of use.
I"m not sure, as I have no problems with it now.
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!
It always works as expected. Also integrated with many of my apps.
Can't think of anything. Maybe the requests to consider upgrading.
Offline storage, accessing from multiple devices.
I like how it links to everything. and how easy it is to use.
how long pictures take to load as I am trying to find one from the past.
It allows me to store all the content I write in one place.
