Dropbox Reviews

I used Dropbox for personal use for data management and storage.

One of the most useful features of Dropbox is its ease of use.

I have been using Dropbox for approximately three years.

Dropbox is a scalable solution.

I have not used the support for Dropbox.

I used Google Cloud previously and I switched to Dropbox because it was easier to use it was simple to share documents.

Dropbox could be less expensive, and I pay monthly.

Dropbox is a good solution for data storage. I am 100 percent satisfied.

I rate Dropbox a ten out of ten.

I use Dropbox for personal and business documents.

I have been using Dropbox for a few years.

I had a good experiment with the technical support from Dropbox.

I have used other similar solutions in the past.

The installation is straightforward.

The subscription could be cheaper.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Dropbox a nine out of ten.

I like that my subscription aside from Microsoft and other products is free. They are free subscriptions. I am subscribed to Microsoft, which is the one that I am paying for.

The way the tool is designed and using the tool itself is quite transparent. It is similar to using a local hard drive.

When it comes to the type of software that is available, Microsoft is attractive because it comes in a bundle. It is easier to maintain rather than having separate subscriptions for it. 

If Dropbox or Google Drive could have the same software and bundle as Microsoft, then that would be great.

I would like to see integration with Office products, it would be very helpful.

It would also be helpful if Dropbox could store data. It may already be possible, but I haven't tried it.

I have been using Dropbox for several years. It's been at least five years.

I haven't had the opportunity to engage with the technical support from Dropbox.

I am subscribed to Microsoft Office 365. I use the OneDrive, Outlook, and all other Office applications that are included with Microsoft Office 365. I also use Google Drive.

The initial setup was easy.

A basic version of Dropbox is available for free with a paid subscription from Microsoft.

I would rate Dropbox a seven out of ten.

We primarily use all aspects of Dropbox, from storage to file transfers.

I use it for notes when I'm in meetings so I can share it with my team. I use it for sharing files as well. 

The way you can share files by sending a link is very good. It also allows us to have all of our files on our smartphone, tablet, or computer. It's really great to have access to our files from anywhere at any moment.

The solution is very fast and simple. If I want to share a file I can put it on the cloud or on-premise. It's user-friendly.

The pricing could be better and/or more clear. Right now, they have a strange way of splitting pricing. It's a bit complicated and not clear for users. 

I've been using the solution for three years.

The solution is stable. Sometimes I have to restart the solution because there is a problem. It's not often. I don't know if it's due to my computer or due to my connection. 

The solution is very scalable.

In France, I have a direct connection to Dropbox. In general, I've been satisfied.

We didn't previously use a different solution.

The initial setup is straightforward. They have a great onboarding process that guides everything. Deployment takes about ten minutes. You only need one person to handle the implementation.

I handled the implementation myself.

We previously evaluated WeTransfer.

We use the cloud deployment model.

I would recommend the solution. It's user-friendly, easy to activate and easy to use.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. The features are great but the pricing needs adjustment.

I generally use Dropbox for exchanging large scale documents or large files, and things of that nature. 

Dropbox is a cloud-based solution. 

A valuable feature is that it's useful for exchanging large files and documents. I'm happy with it. 

Dropbox could probably be improved around the integrated security, but those options are probably available. I don't have much of a view on improvements, based on the relatively few occasions that I use it. 

I've been using Dropbox sporadically for years, probably since it first came out. 

Dropbox is stable, and I'm happy with it. As long as you've got things from a security point of view, it's fine. 

For my usage, it's scalable enough. 

There is probably a relatively small number of Dropbox users in my organization because we use SharePoint and other solutions as well. 

I have never contacted technical support. I would just ask my own technical people if I needed anything. 

In my organization, we also use SharePoint and other solutions. 

There is no installation for something like Dropbox. 

I don't pay for a license to use Dropbox. 

I rate Dropbox an eight out of ten. I would recommend Dropbox to others. It's okay, and it's a private, mature solution, but I don't use it particularly as a business tool. 

I have used Dropbox on the odd occasion to share files and so on with external parties. For example, I've used it to share big files such as videos and items of that nature. I mainly use it for sharing different types of files and for storage. 

The solution is stable.

The performance is good.

It's very easy to use and quite accessible for everybody.

The solution scales well.

The solution is free to use. 

You don't need to install anything.

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've used the solution for a while. It's been five years or longer. 

The solution has been stable over the years. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. I find it to be reliable. 

It's my understanding that the solution scales well. I've never run into any problems. If a user needs to expand their usage, they can do so.

We have about 200 people using it within our company.

I've never dealt with technical support. It has never been necessary, as I've never run into issues. Therefore, I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they are. It's very easy to use. So much so, the average person would not need support services. 

We didn't use any other storage solutions before we began using Dropbox.

As a cloud solution, there technically is no installation process you have to go through. You just access it and use it. 

We use the free version of the solution. We don't pay any licensing fees. 

I'm not an IT person, I'm a business person. I'm not overly technical.

I'm a Dropbox end-user and customer. 

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. I've been quite please with its capabilities so far.

I would recommend the solution to other users and companies.

The fact that it is accessible anywhere is the solution's most valuable feature.

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.

The solution is stable. I haven't experienced any technical glitches or anything of that nature while using it over a number of years.

I only use a free account, so my storage is very limited. That's the only problem for me but other than that I think it is pretty scalable.

I used Box for work, which I found to be better, but it was a business account. For me, Box was easier to use. Using it on my mobile was much simpler.

The initial setup is extremely easy.

I use the free version of the solution. If you need more storage, you do need to pay a certain amount of money for it.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

The solution is very similar to Box. If I have the file on my computer, it will sync automatically. I would very rarely, for instance, access it online if I'm on my laptop. It's only the mobility aspects of it that are not so simple or quick.

The ability to share files across the world with business partners, family and friends is the most valuable feature. I learned of Dropbox from a friend after an adventure zip lining. Ever since I had used it for personal collaboration and file sharing and pictures that we wouldn't want to post on Facebook. 

Shared folders count against your total storage space. So I have had to delete multiple libraries in order to receive a share. 

Finding and sharing links to files and libraries are often a pain to find and manage. 

Dealing with permissions are an issue. Sometimes we need to find a person's email address. Some people use three to four different emails. Someone added me to a library via email, but later when needing to send me an email, they couldn't find it. Dropbox would not give them my email address, the one they had to submit in the first place to add me to the list.

Shared folders from other people don't count against your total size.

Personal address book so when we add someone, they're information is saved so we can lat a later time email them or add the person to another share. 

Larger storage allocations as two GB is eaten up quite fast with sharing of pictures, video and files. 

Lower price range. The cost for gain is just not lined up with other business offerings. 

A much easier to navigate web interface. Sharing a file should be as easy as sharing a YouTube video. Finding that link is not always so simple.

I've had no issues with deployment.

I've had no issues with stability.

I've had no issues with scalability, except the limited total storage space.

A year or two back, we were upgrading a Customer Relations Management (CRM) database system. The database is heavily used among 8,000+ employees and was severely lagging in response times. This means longer times on phones with clients and a lower satisfaction rating with both employee and client. 

So we upgraded the main database to a massive IBM K series Power running AIX. But now the SAN was the bottleneck. The 10TB Tier 1 SAN we were using just wasn't fast enough. So the database was split into archive and 4 year data. But the mix of spinning disk and SSD was just not giving us the cutting edge we needed to provide our staff with blazing fast performance and a higher degree of customer satisfaction with shorter phone time. 

So we went back and threw the budget away and went with a 100% SSD solution. The storage team had never done anything like this so we had to work with them on acquisition and building. Then we ran 12 Fibre cables from the back of the IBM system to the SAN switch and to the SAN. We made it so it was exclusive to this system to remove any potential bottlenecks. 

The directly attached SSD has performed amazingly since the switch and has bolstered employee productivity, report generation speeds and a slew of other tasks directly related to the CRM platform.
