More Hyland OnBase Pros →

Cons
"Everything they have should be integrated into one item.""The user interface is not very intuitive.""DLP features are lacking and required because, especially with everyone working from home, security is now paramount when the data is on BYOD devices.""Some of our customers are facing issues if they've deployed in hybrid mode.""My only issue with this solution is the cost, which should be improved.""There are sometimes scalability issues after updates.""The configuration on the mobile devices is a little clunky, in terms of setting up the application.""They should integrate the solution with more email services."

More Citrix ShareFile Cons →

"The Security and privacy of this solution need improvement.""Dropbox could make the installation and the log of what has changed in a file easier. Showing logs could be more accessible.""It's an expensive solution.""I think the product's interface is an area of concern since it has been changed for a long time and can be considered for improvement.""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 interface could have bigger buttons.""The solution lacks sufficient storage capabilities.""The free storage amount should be increased."

More Dropbox Cons →

"An area for improvement would be the training - getting our people up to speed on how to use it required more training than we expected due to the complexity of the solution.""We are struggling with duplicates and would like to have OCR functionality when using this solution.""For user experience, they would have to do more with the interface. It is not easy to work with and is a little messy. It is getting better, but it is not yet good enough. Other products are comparatively doing better in terms of the user interface. I have been hearing about Box, which is very easy to use and learn for the users. OnBase has to work on this aspect. It should have BPM capabilities. We compete with tools that provide the BPM feature and support those standards. They can do better in terms of the pricing model. It is a really expensive tool in Latin America. They should have different prices for different regions.""We need to troubleshoot why our reports didn't get downloaded in a day. There is a workflow feature which powerful but also complicated.""The dashboards do have some room for improvement as compared to the other vendors which are there in the market.""The look and feel could be better. The integration with the user could be better. It could also be more user-friendly."

    Overview
    ShareFile is a secure file sync and sharing service that meets the mobility and collaboration needs of users and the security requirements of businesses.

    Dropbox provides cloud-based file syncing, sharing, and storage. It specializes in helping large-scale businesses stay organized and productive while protecting the integrity of sensitive information with enterprise-level security. Dropbox is a valuable solution for businesses looking to simplify communication, safeguard information, and improve collaboration. Dropbox's platform provides a user-friendly, real-time sharing and storage solution for large businesses.

    The company's enterprise-level service plan includes 256-bit AES and SSL encryption, an optional two-step verification process, and optional mobile passcodes, which provide tight security to protect sensitive information. Dropbox uniquely offers a remote wipe feature, which allows businesses to keep data safe when an employee leaves the company or a computer is lost.

    Dropbox stands out from the competition by offering businesses expanded storage, unlimited file recovery and versioning, and control over sharing permissions. Additionally, Dropbox provides businesses with team management solutions, including device and location tracking, login tracking, detailed user management options for administrators, and centralized billing.
