Work from anywhere and backup easily while being practical
I recommend Dropbox, yet not for all of the features it has. I am a basic user. In a personal mode, we have about 100 employees, and maybe 20 of them use Dropbox as a personal backup system. ShareFile is more secure than Dropbox. Five years ago, ShareFile was qualified as having better security control, access privilege management, and version control recovery, among many features that we were using for private documentation. Overall, I would rate Dropbox an eight out of ten.

Helps to run Python-based scripts but needs enhancement in user experience
The most important feature of the solution is the ability to run Python-based scripts.  Mode Analytics needs to improve the overall user experience.  I have been working with the solution for two years.  I rate the solution's stability a ten out of ten.  I rate the tool's scalability a seven…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is easy to use."
"It ensures all our staff are using the current version of our documents."
"It is easy to install. It is stable and scalable."
"The features that I find most valuable are the ability to sync across devices, easily access/share files and organize them among myself and my team."
"For me, the biggest thing is version history. I can easily go back and view older versions."
"The solution is easy to use."
"File syncing is the most valuable feature. I use it every day to sync files across to the cloud."
"I can edit my files online, and I like the comments option."
"The solution is simple for people from a viewing perspective, not a coding perspective."
"The most important feature of the solution is the ability to run Python-based scripts."
"The most valuable feature I would say is the flexibility in editing."
"The tool helps to catch results and review them."
 

Cons

"2 Gb of free space and then a not so cheap subscription (also if the competitors have similar proposals for customers)."
"The product must provide users with the ability to edit and modify documents."
"It is difficult to set up. I'd rate the solution maybe a six or seven out of ten."
"I'd like to see security improved a bit."
"The solution could improve by being more secure and having more storage."
"File version control can be improved. It generates a lot of conflicts when people are working on the same file. Its integration with other solutions can be improved in terms of user experience. Integration is there, and it has connectors for Excel, Word, and other solutions, but it is not very friendly. There should be a better user experience."
"The Security and privacy of this solution need improvement."
"They should archive the data."
"Mode Analytics needs to improve the overall user experience."
"I think in terms of User Interface, I would say it can be better."
"The data visualization is cumbersome in Mode Analytics. I want the solution to add a map that has an easy interface. The UI is slow sometimes."
"The solution could run faster."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We must pay when we upsize to a larger space."
"The pricing for non-corporations is expensive. They have raised their prices and have low storage capacity."
"The solution is purchased on a subscription basis, and there are purchasing options. If you purchase annually there is a discount."
"The product is free up to a certain limit."
"I am on a monthly subscription for the solution and I am somewhat satisfied with the pricing. However, the price could a bit better."
"A bigger discount for existing users would be appreciated."
"The solution is expensive."
"Its price is quite cheap. It is quite competitive. You just need to pay for the license. There are no additional costs."
"Mode Analytics is cheap compared to other tools."
"My decision-maker found the pricing expensive, but it is okay for me."
"The pricing is per user."

For me, the biggest thing is version history. I can easily go back and view older versions.
What needs improvement with Dropbox?
One area of improvement would be to allow multiple users to edit a file simultaneously and see edits in real time, similar to OneDrive. In Dropbox, once a file is opened on one system, it locks the...
What do you like most about Mode Analytics?
The solution is simple for people from a viewing perspective, not a coding perspective.
What needs improvement with Mode Analytics?
The solution could run faster. You just sit there, waiting during the load times, especially for the large ones. And if you're doing a presentation, no one likes awkwardly waiting for it to load. L...
What is your primary use case for Mode Analytics?
I was put in charge of creating a lot of the dashboards, so it was very much that there weren't people at the company that knew how to use the solution. I was just handed the solution when I transf...
