Offers good security features and is easy to deploy
Pros and Cons
  • "The security features of the product for data protection are good. I rate the security part a ten out of ten."
  • "The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required."

What is our primary use case?

I use the solution to keep track of the things that I use at my store.

What is most valuable?

The solution's most valuable feature revolves around ensuring that my files are saved in another place in case I can't find them on my computer.

What needs improvement?

The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required. In terms of what my company uses the product for, I would say that the tool serves the purpose.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Dropbox for five to six years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

The product does not provide any service whenever there is a problem with the internet connection.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is a scalable solution. I can buy more storage. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

I use the tool at a personal level.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

My company has experience with Microsoft Teams and Apple iCloud. I started to use Dropbox for my own personal use. I think Microsoft Teams just came as a part of Microsoft's package, a reason why I collaborate a little bit with it at work. Apple iCloud is for my own personal use.

How was the initial setup?

The tool is easy to deploy.

After the solution is deployed, I just create some commonly used files, and then I drop my documents in Dropbox.

The solution can be deployed in five to ten minutes.

The solution is deployed on a cloud model.

What was our ROI?

From an ROI perspective, I think that the tool has the ability to add a certain level of security to the files stored in it, which is helpful if my computer explodes or something.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

My company makes monthly payments towards the licensing charges associated with the product. I think it's a reasonably priced product. There is no need to pay anything extra apart from the payments towards the licensing charges associated with the product.

What other advice do I have?

The product was not very helpful in dealing with a project and improving collaboration.

I have not integrated the product with any other tools. I don't think it's necessary for me.

The security features of the product for data protection are good. I rate the security part a ten out of ten.

I can recommend the product to others who want to use it. It is easy to use. It is a stable and reasonably priced tool. I think the tool's performance is good.

I rate the tool a ten out of ten.

Helps users to easily access data from any geographical location
Pros and Cons
  • "Irrespective of the geographical location that you are present in, and even if you don't have any storage devices, you can access your data and files with the help of Dropbox."
  • "I see that if you use a mobile device that does not allow you to properly configure the email part with Dropbox, then you cannot access it."

What is our primary use case?

Dropbox provides a space where you can get all the required files, and you can also upload anything you require, like any kind of files or storage configurations, which you can then access directly from it.

What is most valuable?

If there is a network, you can access Dropbox from any geographic location. Sometimes, if you don't have a storage device with you, you can access your content from Dropbox, which is a major advantage of the tool.

What needs improvement?

In terms of the limitations, I see that if you use a mobile device that does not allow you to properly configure the email part with Dropbox, then you cannot access it. The aforementioned area can be considered for improvement in the product.

I want to be able to upload certain configurations or setup files, like .exe files, on Dropbox. Sometimes, .exe files take time to get uploaded, or it doesn't get uploaded at all.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used Dropbox at a personal level for two to three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I use the product to generally store my documents. Stability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution an eight and a half out of ten.

In every technology, there are new developments. No new technologies introduced in the market can be 100 percent perfect.

My colleagues, consisting of 11 or 12 people, use Dropbox in our organization.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I use Dropbox at a personal level. My company prefers to use Google Drive.

How was the initial setup?

I don't deploy the product since I am just an end user.

The time to deploy the product is something that depends on a user's network. If a user has a 5G network, the deployment won't take much time. The deployment takes time if you operate in a slow network environment.

The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.

What was our ROI?

The product is worth the money. Irrespective of the geographical location that you are present in, and even if you don't have any storage devices, you can access your data and files with the help of Dropbox.

What other advice do I have?

With Dropbox, the integration part is simple to handle since it doesn't put forth many requirements. You just need to sync your data and emails with Dropbox, after which you can access your data from anywhere. There are some device specifications that you need to meet to be able to use the product, which may pose some limitations.

I recommend the product to others who plan to use it since it is a prominent tool in the market that always provides prompt support whenever you want to access it.

I am not used to the integration capabilities of the product since it is not something that is used in our company. My company mostly uses Google Drive and SharePoint in the professional environment.

In terms of data protection, the product provides security features. In some devices, if your mailbox is not synced, then you won't get any access to such emails in Dropbox. In Dropbox, you can set the permissions of who can access and who can view or download certain files. If you give someone your Dropbox access, you can give them permission to use it.

I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises
