One of the Best Cloud Storage Options Out There
What do you like best about the product?
Dropbox is easy to use, easy to get started with, and makes cloud storage accessible. It's been this way for years - even when cloud storage was a very complicated thing for most to wrap their minds around. My favorite features are how it makes it easy to share a link with others, and how it's pretty easy to understand what caches/syncs locally on your device and what doesn't.
I had a free/personal Dropbox account for many years. I primarily used it to shared files with friends and those who I had done photography for. Dropbox is super accessible to people with most levels of IT knowledge, so even though Google Drive and OneDrive exist, Dropbox has worked the best for me over a diverse amount of users, customers, friends, with different operating systems and devices.
A few years ago, I changed my workflow with incredibly imporant data - my music collection. As a DJ for 25 years, the first 20 were spent carrying duplicate external hard drives - primary and duplicate. After 20 years, I moved everything to Dropbox - DJ application settings, archive, and music files were finally synced locally, along with the help of some symbolic links in MacOS. GAME CHANGER. I could have used OneDrive or Google Drive, but I trust Dropbox to handle my collection and be reliable.

What do you dislike about the product?
Dropbox has tried to push out a lot of new features - File requests, Signatures, Send and Track, etc. There are all great features, but tend to clutter up the interface. I don't like having to see a "Free signatures for up to 3 documents per month with Dropbox Sign' banner every time I log in.
Could I use these features? I could probably see a use case for them with my clients, yes. Have I used them? No, primarily because I don't know enough about what it looks like on the receiving end and I'm not sure if I could help someone step through it if I had to.
I used to have syncing issues with Dropbox, but those disappeared years ago. It's been a while since a sync issue has mucked something up. Biggest recurring issues I've had is when Dropbox is syncing/active, it may cause lag in systems utilizing files in those folder, so when I'm DJing, I need to Quit/Exit Dropbox to ensure there is no loading/caching/syncing/index lag.
Unfortunately, Dropbox dropped support for SymLinks/symbolic links so I'm not sure how much longer the main reason I subscribe to Dropbox will be available. For those unfamilair, symbolic links allow me to 'redirect' a folder that is on the local hard drive. So I have certain files that only can be local, but that folder acts as a 'portal' that sends to the Dropbox location, so it's synced. This is the ONE KILLER feature that I have and without it I'd likely move everything to OneDrive and my own NAS for backup/sync.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dropbox is very accesible for most users on most operating systems. One of the main purposes I use Dropbox for is to send links to folders of photos/videos I've shot/edited for others.
Overall a reliable, extremely useful service for both personal and professional uses
What do you like best about the product?
I use Dropbox for a range of uses, in both personal and professional contexts, and find it to be reliable and convenient. Compared to something like iCloud, I never have to sit around wondering if things are going to sync and when. It's easy to manage storage, sharing, etc. I have almost never needed to contact customer support, but when I've had questions I've received a quick response. Everything is easy to use, and it's also been easy to integrate with software like Scrivener and iA Writer. I use it every day and it's been great.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it were priced a little lower, but basically I'm a happy customer. I haven't had any serious difficulties that have persisted. It's easy to use, and no big problems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I need to be able to access my various files from multiple devices during the day. The service allows me to seamlessly move from my laptop to my tablet to my phone without having to worry about whether or not I can access my files or if those files have been properly synced.
A great way to save and send files for school.
What do you like best about the product?
I like best that it keeps all my files safe and I can share and send to to who ever I want.
What do you dislike about the product?
At the beginning it takes practice to know how to use it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to upload photos
Overall I enjoy using Dropbox and plan to continue using it long term
What do you like best about the product?
I like Dropbox Passwords for securely storing and managing my logins. The ability to files online-only is also a plus, as it ensures I can save space on my PC. Another feature I use is the ability to sign documents directly within Dropbox.
What do you dislike about the product?
One downside is how Dropbox automatically syncs photos and documents from my phone. I’d use it more if there were an option to select specific folders to sync, rather than having everything uploaded by default.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dropbox makes it easy to share and edit Excel documents with my VAs in real time. I can instantly see any changes they make and correct mistakes on the spot.
I use Dropbox for all my files, it makes sharing files with clients and colleagues easy.
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of sharing files and the fact that it functions such that my file structure appears no different than if I were storing the files on my hard drive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Dropbox still uses memory on my device. If the file is not downloaded on my device there can be a significant lag time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing large files without large email attachments.
Very User Friendly and Customizable
What do you like best about the product?
The capability to be a doc placeholder and facilitate in house created software processes
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it had an exchange server connection
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a placeholder for documents when sending for e-signature in bulk; avoiding paying exhorbitant fees for engagement letter software
Data everywhere
What do you like best about the product?
Dropbox was super easy to setup & integrate across all of my devices. It has also made accessing & sharing large amounts of data easier than going through a drive thru for a bit to eat.
What do you dislike about the product?
For me personally, the only down sides would be when someone I would like to share data with is unfamiliar with the software and the software not having a "media player". Which would allow the seamless review of multiple audio files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dropbox has become a digital office space that I can access whenever I see fit allowing me to work at the pace I prefer.
Couldn't do without it
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to organize many files and types of files from multiple team members - all of us remote. I'm not sure we could exist as a company without it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Seems like it takes some time and effort to access the files, on occasion - it presents the file in a window, and especially on photos, it can take some toggling back and forth.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Many team members can weigh in on the same project. We have a system in place so all know exactly where to look and how to access the files. Makes searching for specific detail easy.
Consistent satisfaction
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it allows me to share audio files privately with my clients. It is consistently dependable.
What do you dislike about the product?
The seemingly constant changes to the dashboard and the use of preimptive actions. I do not need help.

Ease of sharing large files in the cloud.
