Well organized, quick and collaborative
What do you like best about the product?
really like how you an get a copy link to send out to people, that makes sending on stuff through email super easy because i don't have to share some seperate email, i can just hyperlink the link provided. I think you also get a good amount of space for your money on the business account.
What do you dislike about the product?
the organization system could use some improvements, better subfolder systems.
my biggest pet peeve is the low quality preview on videos, i send a lot of videos to clients and they think the low grade preview is how the final looks, would rather there be no preview at all over the low grade preview it currently has

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I run a design and video business and use it to share both raw files from shooters as well as final files to clients. Its great that it has a video previewer (though the stream quality is bad)
and I ts pretty much the only way I can get like 100GB of files over from someone over the internet.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
definitley get it, but if you work in video maybe consider explaining that previews are not full quality
A top class storage solution
What do you like best about the product?
Its multi-device capability. I can use it from my computer/phone/tablet and will have a seamless experience. Also, it syncs in the background without any manual activities. For example, I have Dropbox in my office laptop and personal computer. I can just work on the same file in both locations, and the changes will be seamlessly flowing from one to another. This is amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Size restrictions. At least for photos they can provide an unlimited solution (like Google Photos does)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. Ability to upload files easily
2. Being able to comment on a file and start a conversation
3. Easy one-click sharing with colleagues/ customers
4. Carrying work when we are offline
5. Being able to search for any file anywhere quickly

If you are accessing your business data from multiple devices, this is a very good solution. You will be able to see its value when you install the app in multiple places. For example, being able to share a document with a single click from phone is an amazing feature.
Dropbox also provides a collaboration feature with which you can comment on others' documents and start the conversation.
I love the "Share" option too. You can share an entire folder with another Dropbox user. At this moment it is not possible to control what they can do on this folder, but I assume this capability will be provided in the future.

Very useful for accessign files from multiple computers
What do you like best about the product?
I use both Dropbox and Google Drive. Most of my personal stuff is Google Drive because I'm always already logged into Google and it gives me extra storage for Gmail. But I think sharing tools in Dropbox are better. At least I find them better, you can send photos and videos and they play right in the browser. Dropbox also seems to be faster with syncing the changes, but I can't confirm that.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish they had a different pricing model, if you go beyond free, you have to pay for 1TB. If you actually need the whole TB, then the price is reasonable, but if you only need 100GB and are paying for 1TB every month or year, then it doesn't make nearly as much sense for the consumers. I think Amazon's model for it is better where you pay for what you use, but it's not nearly as consumer friendly. There are also some little issue that bug me, like if you have a lot of folders and you create a new one, on top it shows a notification that it was created, but it's just next, not a link to it, so now you have to find the new folder in a long list. The folders also don't show the sizes, only individual files, so it's hard to tell how much space each folder is taken up without having to download them all to a local hard drive. I also haven't found a way to split one large Dropbox account between several local hard drives, if you don't have one drive that can fit everything. There is a way to do it with 3rd party tools for Google Drive, but it wasn't easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping files between multiple computers in sync and having an easy way to share files, pictures and videos. It also backs up my photos from my phone automatically.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dropbox is a good solution, but Google Drive and Amazon S3 cloud are also good, slightly different. I've heard various reports about transfer speeds for each, in my experience Amazon transferred files a lot faster.
The Freelancer's/Remote Worker's Best Friend
What do you like best about the product?
Dropbox offers some really great features - I can send a link to a file on the service to anyone who isn't on the service; I can share folders and data with select people; and I get plenty of space. (There's the requisite get-free-space-to-have-your-friends-sign-on, but even at a rock bottom $10 month for 100 GB, there's still plenty of value to Dropbox).
What do you dislike about the product?
My only major dislike is that, if I am removed from a folder, I do not get a note saying, "You are no longer connected to this folder" - one assignment ended abruptly, and I had some notes and work in process that should have been kept with me. However, this is a minor quibble - all in all, I really enjoy Dropbox.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Much of my work involves sharing large folders and files, whether it's business/marketing information or (as my sideline) scans and proofing copies of pulp reissues. Dropbox allows me to work remote at any venue - I use the web version, but the Android app on my tablet works wonderfully as well. I'm finding myself better able to meet deadlines and craft marketing copy that more closely resembles what my client is seeking....and in the end, it fosters collaboration.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dropbox's interface is clean - very clean, and can be somewhat misleading. I would also consider that, although you can acquire more space through referrals, paying the $10 a month for a basic account is *definitely* worth it.
