Flexible in deployment, scalable, and the technical support is good
The most valuable feature is the flexibility of deployment. There are different ways that this solution can be deployed. It can be on-premises, entirely cloud-based, or a hybrid model. Currently, the trend in India is a hybrid approach. Since people are using tools from different public cloud companies, we are helping customers to maintain integration between cloud and on-premises. Furthermore, you can take the appliance or you can just take the software for a virtual environment. This solution uses an object architecture, which means that we can manage a few terabytes of information and billions of objects in different locations through a single system. This is one of the most important things that we get from this product. The platform has support for traditional technologies such as NFS but it also supports newer technologies on the market.

Family sharing and personal backups have improved how I manage and access my files anywhere
I am not fond of their syncing. Their file syncing is very clunky, so I am not a real fan of the file syncing. I think Box does a much better job of the syncing of data onto desktops and laptops. When you try to sync the files in Dropbox, it actually puts a copy of the file on your laptop, so it sucks up all of your memory. Whereas with Box, I can sync files into my file explorer and it is still cloud-based. They have not saved the file physically onto my laptop. They save it in the cloud and it just does a temporary download and then it uploads again, but that file is not saved on my laptop. Whereas with Dropbox, anytime you want to sync on your laptop, it actually does save it. There is a way to set it up, but it takes a lot more work and effort and I have never been able to get it to work the way I want it to work. So I just do not sync my files with Dropbox on my laptop. That limits my ability to use Dropbox from my work laptop because my work laptop just does not have any memory at all on it. They give the bare minimum of memory and say that it should all be in the cloud anyway, so you do not need to have that much storage space. So I cannot even access Dropbox from my work laptop and have to use the browser version of Dropbox if I need to access my Dropbox from my work laptop. Within the company, it is a personal choice. Our company has not dictated what cloud service to use. As long as it has all the security measures that meet the standards of our IT department, anyone can use whatever cloud service they want. For example, our company is not allowed to use Google because Google is not a secure cloud service in the estimation of our IT department. So there are cloud services that we are not allowed to use, but from the five to seven different services that they give us to choose from, we all can find what meets our needs.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"This is a scalable solution that can handle petabytes of information and millions of stored objects at multiple locations."
"This is a scalable solution that can handle petabytes of information and millions of stored objects at multiple locations."
"The sharing aspect of the solution is its most valuable aspect; it's very easy to share files across devices and with colleagues."
"The performance is good."
"For many years it costed zero to me and granted a lot of features I needed, and even now that I am a paying customer I still feel the money is well spent."
"The tool is incredibly intuitive and easy to master on your own."
"Dropbox can be useful for one's organization and personal usage."
"The ability to share files across the world with business partners, family and friends is the most valuable feature."
"I am using it for my personal use; I use it for storing data and sharing the data between different devices, for example, I store something on the mobile and then I open it on my MacBook, and I am also using Dropbox to share data with different people."
"While DropBox's basic setup gives you 2GB to start with, they make it very easy to bump that up to as much as 18GB as a free user."
 

Cons

"Our clients need the flexibility to easily move from Atmos to AWS and GCP and then back from GCP to AWS to Atmos."
"Our clients need the flexibility to easily move from Atmos to AWS and GCP and then back from GCP to AWS to Atmos."
"I find it a little hard to organize my Dropbox folders on my mobile device."
"The only thing I have had trouble with is the ability to share files. The recipients of my requests have had difficulty accessing the files."
"The problem with the storage is that you are only able to synchronize the information within the amount of storage that you have."
"2 Gb of free space and then a not so cheap subscription (also if the competitors have similar proposals for customers)."
"The pricing could be better and so could the amount of storage space. I feel like for the price, they don't offer very much storage space, especially when compared to competitors like Google."
"Dropbox could introduce some sort of a notification with respect to how much storage you have left out of what is purchased."
"I would like to see integration with Office products, it would be very helpful."
"Security could be enhanced."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We are using the free version of Dropbox which has approximately two gigabytes of data capacity."
"I was using the free version of the product."
"The solution is purchased on a subscription basis, and there are purchasing options. If you purchase annually there is a discount."
"I am using the free solution, which provides me with 2GBs of storage, and for me, it's sufficient."
"While the pricing is comparable, especially for users of Microsoft Office 365, the value proposition might not be as competitive for those seeking primarily storage options."
"A basic version of Dropbox is available for free with a paid subscription from Microsoft."
"One area that has been a big issue for me is when I tried to close my accounts, it is difficult. We had small personal accounts, and we then wanted to consolidate everything to the business account, but then to cancel and close those smaller accounts, it's a big issue. I still haven't done it and it's quite a long process."
"The product is free up to a certain limit."
