Family sharing and personal backups have improved how I manage and access my files anywhere
I am not fond of their syncing. Their file syncing is very clunky, so I am not a real fan of the file syncing. I think Box does a much better job of the syncing of data onto desktops and laptops. When you try to sync the files in Dropbox, it actually puts a copy of the file on your laptop, so it sucks up all of your memory. Whereas with Box, I can sync files into my file explorer and it is still cloud-based. They have not saved the file physically onto my laptop. They save it in the cloud and it just does a temporary download and then it uploads again, but that file is not saved on my laptop. Whereas with Dropbox, anytime you want to sync on your laptop, it actually does save it. There is a way to set it up, but it takes a lot more work and effort and I have never been able to get it to work the way I want it to work. So I just do not sync my files with Dropbox on my laptop. That limits my ability to use Dropbox from my work laptop because my work laptop just does not have any memory at all on it. They give the bare minimum of memory and say that it should all be in the cloud anyway, so you do not need to have that much storage space. So I cannot even access Dropbox from my work laptop and have to use the browser version of Dropbox if I need to access my Dropbox from my work laptop. Within the company, it is a personal choice. Our company has not dictated what cloud service to use. As long as it has all the security measures that meet the standards of our IT department, anyone can use whatever cloud service they want. For example, our company is not allowed to use Google because Google is not a secure cloud service in the estimation of our IT department. So there are cloud services that we are not allowed to use, but from the five to seven different services that they give us to choose from, we all can find what meets our needs.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"All of our different repositories of documents, like SharePoint and Box, were linked to Workspaces to ensure that sharing content was monitored, controlled, and secure."
"The most valuable features are the ability to revoke rights after sending the document, and shoulder browsing protection."
"Its usability is valuable. It is easy to use."
"The scalability is great for us."
"One of the advantages of Dropbox is that you can share files with people who are external to your organization without any additional costs, and it is also easy to use, stable, and trustworthy."
"Dropbox trumps both of these with its superior support and features."
"Dropbox is a good solution for data storage."
"The security is very good."
"The Dropbox feature I like the most is being able to control the level of access I want to give to different people within my team."
"Dropbox offers helpful functionalities for business purposes, such as receiving file requests from external parties like customers who don't have an account. Additionally, it includes features, such as reminders and workflow capabilities."
 

Cons

"I would like to see workflow implementation, as well as a lite version for non-business users."
"I would like to see workflow implementation, as well as a lite version for non-business users."
"It would be good if they could market themselves as a safe solution for corporates. Currently, most corporates don't see it as a safe area to share within."
"I cannot edit a document at the same time as another user."
"It could be more secure."
"I am not fond of their syncing. Their file syncing is very clunky, so I am not a real fan of the file syncing."
"The mobile aspect of the solution needs improvement. For instance, if I want to use a file from Dropbox on my phone, I sometimes struggle to download images off of Dropbox. The solution lacks accessibility on different devices."
"Dropbox, like many file sharing tools, needs to synch to a local hard drive. That is a bit difficult with 5TB Dropbox content."
"I'd like to see security improved a bit."
"A room for improvement in Dropbox is document editing. It would be nice to have the functionality of editing the document with other people at the same time. This is something that can be done on Office 365, and it's a feature I'd like to see in the next release of Dropbox."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution is expensive."
"I am using the free solution, which provides me with 2GBs of storage, and for me, it's sufficient."
"I was using the free version of the product."
"There is a subscription-based pricing model and I pay monthly."
"Its price is quite cheap. It is quite competitive. You just need to pay for the license. There are no additional costs."
"You pay as you go, which is a good thing. There is a monthly fee, and you can also pay annually. This flexibility makes the subscription easier and affordable for some of us. I prefer yearly pricing, which is also slightly cheaper than monthly pricing."
"A bigger discount for existing users would be appreciated."
"Dropbox is one of the cheapest tools in the market."
