"Great source to drop large size files and photos"
What do you like best about Dropbox?

It doesn't clog up your email and it's a fast and easy way to send and recieve large sized photos or file you would not be able to email or send otherwise. Highly recommend!

What do you dislike about Dropbox?

You have to pay for extra storage once you reach a certain threshold. I quickly filled up my dropbox and unless you want to delete files permanently then you have to pay for upgraded storage.

What problems is Dropbox solving and how is that benefiting you?

I send and recieve large photos and documents with my clients. It's great, especially for large photos. It retains the size and resolution without cutting down on quality. I use it every week and have never had any problems. You just invite via email who you want to share the files with and you can also choose if you want them just to "view" or be able to "edit".

"Easy to use, easy to collaborate"
What do you like best about Dropbox?

I liked how easy it was to connect it to my file explorer (and the ease of opening in Microsoft). I liked the notifications of when someone else had changed the file.

What do you dislike about Dropbox?

I can't think of anything that I didn't like about using dropbox. I gues just that it's an extra fee. I switched to OneDrive since it was included in my Microsoft license.

What problems is Dropbox solving and how is that benefiting you?

Collaboration between remote employees. We are preserving historical documents in a central, easily accessible location.

"Security and convenience all wrapped in one through Dropbox in delivery of large volume data"
What do you like best about Dropbox?

The encrypted data storage facility of 300 Gigabyte guarantees a huge storage facility and accommodates all kinds of media. High security comes handy in safeguarding our IP address. The cross-device sync adds convenience ensuring working everywhere on any gadget.

What do you dislike about Dropbox?

The signing of Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) on Dropbox can compromise organization and go against business intelligence. This aspect needs to be revised for organizational security

What problems is Dropbox solving and how is that benefiting you?

We had challenges sharing videos and applications online between teachers and students. Some online platforms and email handling does not allow for applications to be transferred, Dropbox provided the much-needed storage, sharing facility.

"Best Cloud Storage Hands Down. Personal or Business!"
What do you like best about Dropbox?

I have been using Dropbox for over a decade. It wasn't until recently when the company hired my younger brother that I discovered the platform's full potential. I utilize Dropbox to store, archive, and remotely access all of my youtube video recordings. The desktop app makes it very user-friendly, and there are so many tools to utilize once you dive in deeper.

What do you dislike about Dropbox?

The only downside to the application is that when attempting to download huge files or folders, a timeout error occurs. You must either download them file by file or send them to another protocol they have in the software for large downloads.

What problems is Dropbox solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have solved the issue of bogging down my computer's local storage, which causes it to run slower. The cloud app has benefited me by allowing me to access files on the go anytime, anywhere from any device.

"Efficient place to store files"
What do you like best about Dropbox?

I like how I'm able to store photos and files while also giving access to outsiders to use my Dropbox files if needed.

What do you dislike about Dropbox?

I dislike the lack of programs that are attached to Dropbox or are compatible with Dropbox.

What problems is Dropbox solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am able to access photos and files from outside companies I work with. It makes it easier to store files when working in a virtual office without a shared drive. Isin Dropbox, all staff members can access files, photos, documents, in the same place.

"Dropbox continues to set the industry standard in file hosting"
What do you like best about Dropbox?

Dropbox professional has allowed me to easily share files with a wide variety of clients, including those who do not have Dropbox themselves. The sharing settings have become smoother over time, making it increasingly low-hassle. As someone who is frequently needing to send high memory files to a wide range of people, this has been incredibly helpful.

What do you dislike about Dropbox?

I would like for there to be a way that folders could be sent for edit access without needing to invite specific accounts— sending a link that would allow for collaborative editing to anyone who clicked it, for example.

What problems is Dropbox solving and how is that benefiting you?

The ability to do away with email attachment limits will always be one of the best assets that Dropbox provides. As someone who works in the entertainment industry, I am able to easily send electronic press kits to media personnel without worrying about anyone being unable to access the files. It also allows me to deliver photo galleries to photography clients.

"Very Intuitive & User Friendly"
What do you like best about Dropbox?

It's very easy to use. Self explanatory and the design is intuitive, nothing is difficult to figure out. I can collaborate with my external clients and it helps me share different kinds of files very easily. Sharing & collaborating is just one click away. The Mobile app is also easy to understand and use. The paid plan starts at about $10 and seems very reasonable with the amount of storage you are getting.

What do you dislike about Dropbox?

There are no cons. I have been using dropbox for professional reasons and personal. It has been very up to the mark.

What problems is Dropbox solving and how is that benefiting you?

It has helped me seamlessly collaborate with my clients as well as internal colleagues. Taking Backups of my files. Organising data is also simpler.

"File sharing easy for B2B"
What do you like best about Dropbox?

Dropbox business makes it easy to file share with supplies who are not in the same city as you. We deal with suppliers who need big art files and you cannot send that through email, so we create a shared folder on dropbox and give them access to the files. We also use dropbox with our bookkeeper so he doesnt need to come into the office all the time

What do you dislike about Dropbox?

There has been nothing i dislike about dropbox. It works great for our business. Easy file sharing with other people outside our organization. Nothing to dislike

What problems is Dropbox solving and how is that benefiting you?

File sharing large files with suppliers in different cities. File sharing with other companies when the file sizes are too large to send through email or not using outside links

"Great File Storage solution"
What do you like best about Dropbox?

I love that I can sync multiple devices and set those devices to automatically download files to a dropbox folder and have all my working files at my fingertips.

What do you dislike about Dropbox?

I have to pay for three users as a minimum, but I only use it for one. There are also great consolidation tools in Dropbox Business, but I don't need them at this stage in my business.

What problems is Dropbox solving and how is that benefiting you?

I store documents for clients and can review and produce them anytime and anywhere I may need them. When a client reaches out to me with a document request, and I can quickly resolve it, the client is usually impressed, which helps me appear organized and professional.

What do you like best about Dropbox?

On the daily basis, we use DropBox to share files with employees and with our clients. This is such a reliable and secure service that we are thankful to use them.

There seem to be issues with synching some of the documents when we are sharing them with our clients. We have requested help for this and it has been fixed a few different times.

File sharing is always challenging. Many clients try to send files via email and that does not work out very well because some of the files are very large and cannot be sent.

"Dropbox is one of the best cloud storages I have ever used."

Most helpful thing is that we can upload any kind of file in it like pdf, jpeg, mp4, and many others. So, it's one cloud storage with everything needed for a person.

What do you dislike about Dropbox?

The thing I didn't like is that it was not available after my college as it was connected to my college account. But I know it's not dropbox it's my college who wanted it like that. If they can make it available for free to individual users I will use it over any other cloud storage.

What problems is Dropbox solving and how is that benefiting you?

I used it to save my college presentations, work files, and some of my documents. The benefit I had is that dropbox have an android app with which I had all my documents accessible all the time.

Dropbox makes it easily collaborate with a team. The integration with Mac makes it smooth to share and collaborate with a team. We tried utilizing box, but it did not have the abilities that dropbox had.

The only thing I dislike about Dropbox is that the sharing capabilities are a bit limited if I want to have a public file listed on the website. Sometimes the link will stop working.

What problems is Dropbox solving and how is that benefiting you?

it makes our team collaborate easier by setting designated folders where we need creatives. It helps when we have team members working from home, and the connection between us is instant.
