Seamless integration with MS Office and much else

  • December 19, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Dropbox has been my default file organiser for at least 15 years and is particularly useful in the following respects:
1) it functions as a file/folder management system on iOS (much better than relying on iOS' own file system)
2) integration with MS Office is very welcome and seamless- I edit many docs/spreadsheets on the fly this way. Of course, One Drive/ SP does something similar, but they involved more complication when syncing to desktop folders that can be easily backed up.
3) I back up my Mac OS app Dropbox folder on regular basis and sync contents with a flashdrive. All this is seamless, quick and easy. I found other cloud providers etc. less flexible,
4) Many apps I used offer Dropbox as integrated storage- Notabilty especially.
5) It is stable
What do you dislike about the product?
The nags to upgrade can be a pain.
More flexible plans would be good (I don't need huge storage).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows file swapping and back ups to go on in the background without getting in the way. Particular with iOS, it allows a portable hierarchical file-folder organisation system that is very valuable in contexts where that is not otherwise easily obtainable.

Well-designed

  • December 19, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Dropbox's product design is the best I've used for cloud services, especially with the desktop app. It's seamless, simple, and not unnecessarily convoluted like Google Drive or OneDrive.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a bit pricey compared to others while the featureset isn't as complete. I still use Google Docs and so on and so forth.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's the best for sharing externally. There would always be a huge process for Google Drive or ugly.

Best collaborative tool but still needs some improvement.

  • December 19, 2023

What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to use, and the files are magically synced most of the time. I don't need to worry too much about the accessibility and security.
What do you dislike about the product?
First, the searching function was very basic, especially the uploaded photos. It was difficult to find things within the photos and the browsing was very slow (perhaps due to massive data). Secondly, it was very disappointing that Dropbox stopped support for Mac OS 10.12.6. Because the device was not able to be upgraded, it is very troublesome to synchronize files now. I hope Dropbox can resume the support soon. Thirdly, I used the Web interface quite often. It was inconvenient that the "started" button was removed from the left-side menu.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Exchanging files among multiple people. It makes it easy and the file version was well managed.

Guaranteed security with decent enough price

  • December 19, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to access my files wherever on whatever device I'm on. I use Dropbox almost daily and often on different devices so I find critical the easy setup and use, no matter what operating system I might have in use at any particular moment. I also find the knowledge of having my files secured reassuring and having the ability to access the version history extremely important. Said features have saved me from countless of hours of extra work in the past, and I can not emphasize how important I find them.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the subscription options somewhat lacking. As a person who uses the account alone but still moves around and storages rather a large amount of files, I still don't have any other options than up to the 3 TB of space, and then starting to buy 1 TB at a time of more in case I need it, and that raises the price quite fast - as all the other plans are for multiple users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The safe of my files is the most important feature. I have gone through several external hard drives, and in the process also lost files I've never managed to save since then. Having my files in the cloud gives me peace of mind that I never need to trouble myself with similar issues.

Overall satisfied but plan with smaller space is missing

  • December 19, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use. It's already been integrated to many other programs for purposes like streaming video and music.
Furthermore, in the cloud means I can access my files everywhere with internet. The offline function is also handy when I know I won't have internet. In this way I don't need to use any external hard drive to backup my media files, documents and pictures.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a pity that it doesn't have plans with smaller storage space. Google and Apple have this in-between plans e.g. 50G, 100G, 1TB which are sufficient for quite a while. In contrast, Dropbox starts with 2TB plan as the cheapest paid subscription. To be honest, in the first 5 years of using Dropbox my storage didn't even exceed 1TB. I feel a waste of money to pay for the unused space.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I don't need to carry an external hard disk or storage device everywhere. It's in the cloud and easy to access.
