Ability to store and secure all types of files.

  • March 10, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Dropbox is our main platform for storing, distributing, sharing and safeguarding all types of files, documents and images. We believe that Dropbox is a very capable software to transfer files in minutes, its platform works wonderfully and offers the user the possibility of protecting files at a very affordable price. During my experience with Dropbox, the positive features that I noticed were the following:

- The convenience of the Dropbox desktop app is amazing. This App does not start automatically when the computer is turned on, so it does not interrupt at any time, in addition, the App has a feature that I have never seen. The files are not uploaded through the App, this App creates a folder on the desktop where the user must move all the files they want to be in the cloud to that folder. When you move the files to that folder, they will be automatically uploaded to the cloud, and you will be able to view those files from the App or any other device.
- Dropbox has a special folder so that members of a work team can share files more directly. In my Corporate work team, we share the files through this folder, all you have to do is drag the files to that folder and immediately the other members will be able to access that file, without the need to send it individually.
- I love the perfect security that Doprobx has since it automatically generates an encryption key for all files stored in the cloud, this has ensured that no intruder can access my files without my prior consent.
- I like the Trash system that Dropbox has, this system has helped me recover files that I thought were lost. Sometimes, I have deleted files without thinking that they will be useful in the future for something specific. All these files that I delete, stay in the trash for 30 days, so it's quite easy to recover data in Dropbox.
What do you dislike about the product?
Within my experience with Dropbox, I only noticed two negative characteristics, this software has not caused so many problems, it has behaved to the measure and has met all my expectations. In my experience, I have noticed more positive things than negative. The negative things I noticed about Dropbox were:

- Document editing is not so well optimized. In other cloud storage applications, there is the possibility of editing documents together, users can modify a document with the support of their colleagues on other computers, and the changes will be shown in real time, this helps collaborative work to be higher, however, in Dropbox this does not happen like that. In Dropbox documents cannot be modified as a whole, only one person can modify it, otherwise, several copies will be created corresponding to the number of people who are modifying the said document.
- In the free version of Dropbox there is no possibility to add encryption security, moreover, the space is quite little. I consider that 2GB free is too little for new users to try the platform. In my opinion, they should expand that amount of storage, so that the user can learn more about the program that he is about to acquire for his work area.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In our company, we handle quite a lot of files on our computers, every day we create new documents and receive new information from other people that is stored on our hard drives. Dropbox has been a platform that changed our general vision as a company, made our computers more secure and allowed our files to have additional security in the cloud. Previously, we transferred files via email or removable drives, however, after the arrival of Dropbox, we now transfer files from the cloud, with a more direct reception and a transfer in just a couple of seconds without moving from our place of work. I thank Dropbox for having met all our expectations, for being such an incredible software that helps us keep our files and documents safe at all times.

My experience has been very pleasant, Dropbox has been a fairly simple software to use, we adapted quickly after the arrival of Dropbox in our company, we understood all the functions instantly.

Dropbox Business works fine, but our move to Apple iCloud was a good thing.

  • March 10, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Dropbox Business is a 'normal' solution - people are used to seeing Dropbox links and using them. Even so, we also started looking at Apple iCloud and the seamless integration with all Apple IOS/iPadOS/MacOS devices.
What do you dislike about the product?
However, for the money, we found Dropbox Business had little additional features were important to us (compared to regular Dropbox), and the increased pricing simply wasn't worth it. iCloud gave us much better (read: invisible) integration, since we are an all-Apple shop.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Familiarity keeps things simple, and if we were only interested in basic cloud storage shared across employee workspace, it would be fine (if the price was sharper.). However, integration was a little complicated, and again, we found iCloud made it almost effortless.

Dropbox is wonderful!

  • March 08, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Dropbox is free and easy to use. If you need to share a file, it is relatively easy. Another plus is the free account and paid plans. If you want to test out the platform, the free version is the way to go.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not too fond of the amount of security protecting my images on Dropbox. The site has been hacked several times, and information was stolen. Another downside is the limited space for free accounts. Dropbox is a great platform other than the above issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dropbox has allowed me to clear up space on my Macbook by storing various documents, pictures, videos, and presentations on the platform rather than on my computer. If I am away from my computer, I love how I can easily access my account on my cell phone. Dropbox is a dream come true!

Dropbox Business "the team members are interconnected"

  • March 07, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the secure storage of information, the good thing about Dropbox is that you can access the information at any time and in the place where we are; we can even review our information offline.
What do you dislike about the product?
Storage limit in the free version: The disadvantage that I don't like is that in the free version of Dropbox Business, the storage is limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dropbox is a very versatile tool; you can store a wide variety of systems and formats, including iOS, Android, images, music, documents, videos, and others.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I should pay attention to the notifications of the problems so that the synchronization is modified when it is blocked and does not always communicate with the cloud.

Excellent storage and collaboration software

  • March 07, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Dropbox is an excellent platform for file storage and collaboration on any device. It offers a decent amount of storage space for personal and business uses, where you can easily upload, download, transfer, and store files. The files you store on Dropbox are only visible to you unless you change the permissions manually. You can make your file accessible to others by inviting them to view and download it or by sharing its URL, which is unique for each file. You can also grant permissions to others to edit and delete files, but only within specific folders. You can accomplish this by creating folders and marking them as private, after which you'll have to invite them to give them permissions. You can allow others to edit and make changes to files on the cloud directly and allow simultaneous editing, which is an excellent way to promote collaboration without saving the file on the local machine.

You can use Dropbox without downloading anything by going on the Dropbox website on your browser, where you can easily upload and share files. You can also install the Dropbox app on your phone for the same purposes. There exists a desktop application for Dropbox, which you can download to view any file you upload to your storage from your phone remotely and vice versa. Dropbox's UI is clean and easy to use, where you can drag and drop any file to upload it instantly. It allows you to create folders and sub-folders to reduce clutter and make your storage easy to navigate. To make your Dropbox usage convenient, you can find all your most recently used folders on the left sidebar for quicker access.
What do you dislike about the product?
Dropbox on the web browser sometimes doesn't load completely. When this happens, instead of uploading the file when you drag and drop, it just opens the file on your web browser. This issue occurs frequently, and you often have to refresh the browser for the page to load fully to go on with your task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dropbox is an excellent way for my colleagues and me to share files quickly. It supports large file transfers at the fastest rate of upload, which is very efficient in sharing application files and data. We store all our essential files on the cloud so that they're easier to recover in case of any issues with our systems. We've moved on from using Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel for documents and sheets editing as they have no online collaboration features, where Dropbox excels. We can conveniently use sheets and docs on Dropbox to edit and work on them simultaneously as a group for more efficiency and speed. Dropbox also provides various management tools that come in handy when planning out projects and roadmaps. Like Trello, we can use the board to set reminders and sort our tasks as per our priorities to have a streamlined workflow. The shared folders on Dropbox make it convenient to work and upload files without the intervention or waiting on another user. Shared folders being accessible by everyone allow us to send and receive files quickly on any device, especially on mobile. Even when we don't have access to a computer, we can download files from the Dropbox mobile app and attach them in emails for business reports. The benefit of Dropbox is easily its storage. Still, its other features to make online work convenient are more beneficial and offer higher productivity levels for teams of all sizes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dropbox is free to use, so I recommend giving it a try. It's more user-friendly than Google Drive and offers plenty of tools to work with that you'll find handy if you're working from home due to covid.

Best solution for cloud storage management

  • March 07, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
All the features and functionalities are excellent for dropbox. I am a very old user of it, and I cannot think about passing a single day without dropbox. It's the most secured, easily manageable & friendly solution for storing necessary files. Especially synchronizing with the device helps me most. I am using it on my desktop, my laptop as well in my mobile. I can access all the files of my all devices on any single device just by simply logging in. The user interface of the mobile application is also excellent.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I want to be honest, there is nothing to dislike about the dropbox pro solution. As I am an old user, I have explored every single bit of it, and I can ensure that there is no point in marking it as a disappointment. It's great overall.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I usually do not move everywhere with my laptop. But I need to carry so many necessary files for my work. My client sometimes asks for any critical file at a very odd time. Maybe that time I went shopping or playing. Wherever I am, I can simply send him files just using my phone.

Well-known for a good reason

  • March 05, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I like the best about Dropbox it's the speed of uploads. Compared to other cloud storage services, it works pretty fast with big files and is shareable. I also think that the google drive and zoom integration comes in handy when you need to share your files across platforms
What do you dislike about the product?
The free plan that all users can use lacks storage, that's is only 2gb. If you're trying it out for smaller files, it's perfect, but when having to back up huge data, you'll have to invest into a paid plan which is pricey.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps with accessing your files from any device you have. It is also a safe way to ensure your files and data are stored and backed up so you won't lose or delete them accidentally. Sharing and collaboration is another great integration that can be quite helpful when working in teams

Easy and Reliable File Sharing and Storage System

  • March 04, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy Dropbox's ease of use and wide breadth of supported file types. It's easy enough to share, organize, and send files between partners are customers. It's simple to add new users and allow them access to files without too many hoops to jump through. I also love that it's all cloud-based. This results in being able to access files anywhere on the go; incredibly important for when I'm working in the field and need to access customer documents on the fly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Compared directly to its competitors, the paid and expanded storage version of Dropbox comes in at quite a steeper price. Google Drive offers much more storage at a lower cost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm able to accept and share designs and plans between sales partners and customers. It makes our communication and data sharing happen at a much faster rate. I can pull up design specs and permits in the field to share them with inspectors directly. This makes me much more prepared and able to adapt to situations without the resources of the full office.
