    Non-Profit Organization Management

Intuitive, well-known option for sharing files

  • March 26, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Our staff travels a lot, takes pictures from the road, and some other services were really slow or cumbersome when it came to large image file sharing. This has worked well for us, allowing us to make sure our staff can easily share and access the images and other files we need. It's also great that we can share access with constituents and community members regardless of what email system, etc, they might have.
What do you dislike about the product?
When you run out of whatever storage level you're at, the frequent reminders to upgrade get annoying fast.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our staff travels a lot, takes pictures from the road, and we need those for social media posts, magazine layout, etc. Some other services were really slow or cumbersome when it came to large image file sharing. This has worked well for us, allowing us to make sure our staff can easily share and access the images and other files we need.

Frequent Dropbox user

  • January 22, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that Dropbox is extremely organized; it shows the file pathway for users and I love that you can drag and drop folders into Box. I also like that I can use Dropbox on my phone on Safari rather than downloading the app.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that Dropbox would automatically refresh the page once a file was updated. Instead, I am prompted to refresh the page. Also, I personally find the "lock" feature confusing on documents. I think there are ways that the lock function could be more intuitive for users, especially when the majority of my files are shared.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Box allows my team to share, upload, and edit files, despite us being across the country. It's extremely helpful since we can all see the same files and can see who last updated files, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly suggest using it on your phone and strongly recommend dragging and dropping files into Box. For me, that's the easiest way to get files. Also, I love how it's easy to add users to a certain folder with the predictive dropdown box of users. That way, you don't have to fully type the person's e-mail address.

Improve design and usability

  • November 22, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It allows to increase productivity by sharing files of various formats. The option to share folders on a work team and edit the authorization levels to access the folder.
What do you dislike about the product?
It lacks development in design and usability. It is inconspicuous.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Increase productivity in work teams. The security of safeguarding information and not leaving it on a PC
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Improve to compete with Google's Drobox on eye candy. Dropbox's design is not adequate and its usability does not compare with Google Drive. The functionality of Google photos is its disadvantage

Dropbox for Business

  • October 30, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best feature of Dropbox Business is ease of use. Sharing files and folders is quick and takes little effort. The ability to share information among different business units and sites within my organization and with others outside my organization makes Dropbox Business my go-to tool for collaboration.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I specifically dislike about Dropbox Business. It currently meets my professional needs and those of my organization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I primarily use Dropbox Business to share files and information among business units and sites within my organization and, occasionally with others outside of my company. The biggest benefit is the opportunity to collaborate quickly and easily with colleagues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for an easy to use, straight-forward, basic information sharing tool, Dropbox Business is your go-to tool.

One of the Best Tools for File Management

  • July 13, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
During the time I have used Dropbox I absolutely enjoy the ability to easily connect and pull up my files from anywhere and any device whether it is my Computer, Laptop, or Phone, to my work computer, friend's or wife's device, etc. I rely on Dropbox as my secondary hard drive for my computer and store all of my files there. I use and access the files I have saved there on a constant basis and use them daily.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I struggle on with Dropbox, and this isn't even their issue, is that it is just another service to have running. I'm one that likes to consolidate as much as possible and an external system make that a little difficult. However that is the only real issue I have, and like I said it isn't one that is the fault of the company at all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being a work from home Front End Web Developer, sometimes my job requires me to have meetups with my boss, or different clients. With Dropbox I don't have to worry about lugging along an external hard drive, pen drive, or other tools. If I have my laptop (or access to anyone else's laptop or computer) I can easily access my files and we can discuss, edit, and re-sync these products back to the cloud where I have access to them again on my home machine. The ease of file sharing, editing, and collaboration is one of the biggest assets of Dropbox.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use Dropbox for everything. I rarely store things on my desktop anymore. The only things that are actually saved on my computer are games and programs which require my ram and hard drive to run. EVERY other file I own is stored on Dropbox. Approximately 2 years ago I had to actually pay for the upgrade to Dropbox for more space and have not regretted it since.

DropBox Is A Dead-Simple Cloud File Storage/Sharing Platform Though Not As Feature-Rich

  • June 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?

Nearly ubiquitous, works across every imaginable platform. We can email military employees DropBox links to their restricted Windows 7 PCs just as easily as iOS users. Receipients can collaborate without installing software, signing up for accounts etc. We can also get our employees access to company assets without requiring VPN setups and client security profiles. Bottom line, it just works and its easy enough that 1 person can administer around 80 users and hundreds of TBs.
What do you dislike about the product?

Slow implementation of features. DropBox paper was announced and beta'd and demoed for months before we were able to try it. Only now is it usable enough to have us leverage it rather than Google Docs et all. Eventually it will reached parity with their feature set but for now our users have to make some compromises.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

When it comes to cloud storage, it all comes down to reliability, access and versatility. DropBox has never gone down for us, nor have we had any indication that they have been breached, sold our information, etc etc. With additional encryption, thet have met every contractual requirement for every government and military client we have worked with. They are on par pricing-wise, and we have consistently negotiated better rates based on user renewals.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Determine if you are going to need to pay for other services in addition to DropBox if you need things like onsite zero-knowledge encryption or real time collaboration in traditional file formats (MIcrosoft Office). We resorted to using Boxcryptor for encryption and converting a chunk of our staff off of Google Docs and Office 365 (we have government contractual obligations to encrypt certain users' files).
