Dropbox Business - Enterprise Reviews

It is just a normal tool for file-sharing purposes and a common platform that allows people to save and access files from different users.

The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the user-friendly capacity it provides me to save and share files.

Considering the solution's shortcomings, I want the product to be more user-friendly and offer more storage capacity.

The solution is expensive and should be made cheaper.

I have been using Dropbox for three to four years.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution a seven to eight out of ten.

It is a scalable solution.

I use the solution for my personal use cases.

I have experience with OneDrive and Google Drive. I moved to Dropbox from some other solutions to test it out.

The product's initial setup phase was easy.

The product's installation phase needs to follow just two or three steps.

The solution is deployed on the cloud.

I managed the product's installation in our company.

I need to pay towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. The solution is expensive.

I recommend the solution to those who plan to use it.

I rate the overall product an eight out of ten.

I use the solution for sharing data. I also use it for sharing project responsibilities with my team.

We use it in our development and production environments. The product has created an industry standard.

The product must provide users with the ability to edit and modify documents.

I have been using the solution for five years. I am using the latest version of the solution.

I rate the solution’s stability a ten out of ten.

I rate the tool’s scalability a ten out of ten. More than 20 people are using the product in our organization. We do not have plans to increase the number of users.

I was using IBM’s product. I prefer IBM’s product because it collaborates with the embedded cloud.

The initial setup is simple and straightforward. The product can read and share data on Microsoft pretty easily. The deployment took 15 to 20 minutes.

We deployed the solution in-house. To deploy the product, we must follow simple steps. We do not need the help of a consultant. We just need to read the steps on the website. We need only one junior engineer to manage and maintain the solution.

We must pay when we upsize to a larger space.

I prefer Google One over Dropbox. We use Dropbox only to separate our files. Google One has similar features to Dropbox. However, Google One is better than Dropbox because of the complex environment that Google provides.

The newcomers like Google One, Microsoft, IBM, and other products have similar features. We have a regulation not to use much in the cloud. We tend to use the tools offered by our local vendors. Overall, I rate the tool a ten out of ten.

I usually work with Dropbox to upload my documents. I use it for personal and business needs. 

Sometimes I work on a site with a lot of restrictions and security policies and I cannot connect to the environment to deliver a package. I usually use Dropbox to upload the package I need and they use my Dropbox to download the package. I usually work with Dropbox to move my data to another site.

The performance has been good. 

I'd like to see security improved a bit. 

I would like to get it to the point where we could offer permission on one file to make one person see that one file only. It might help improve the security of the entire Dropbox.

I started using the solution about six years ago. It's been a while. 

I'm very happy with the performance. It's stable and reliable. There aren't bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

The scalability is very good. It's not a problem to expand. You can buy more capacity as needed. 

I'm not sure how many people are using the solution in my organization. 

I have not dealt with support before. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they would be.

I've also used Google Drive.

We're satisfied with the pricing. It's fine. If you need to increase storage, you can just buy more capacity. That said, I don't directly deal with licensing. 

As this solution is on the cloud, we're always using the latest version of the product.

I'd recommend the solution to others. I would rate it eight out of ten. 

I use Dropbox mostly for collaboration. If I want to share a document that needs to be edited by my team, I use Dropbox.

What I like most about Dropbox is that it's very, very easy to use. It's also easy to share files through it.

A room for improvement in Dropbox is document editing. It would be nice to have the functionality of editing the document with other people at the same time. This is something that can be done on Office 365, and it's a feature I'd like to see in the next release of Dropbox.

I've been using Dropbox for more than five years.

Dropbox is a pretty stable solution, particularly because it is cloud-based.

Dropbox is a scalable solution. Its scalability is based on the plan guide or on the plan that you use.

I used Office 365, and I chose Dropbox because it's more simple, especially for private or personal use.

Because it is on the cloud, no installation is required for you to use Dropbox.

I don't have information on Dropbox licensing costs.

I evaluated Office 365.

I use Dropbox personally and not for work.

I would recommend Dropbox to other people who want to start using it because it's a very, very simple solution.

My rating for Dropbox is eight out of ten.

Compared to others, it's much, much better. I can track my work on this. It also supports multiple users. I prefer the useability over other brands and solutions. 

There's no installation required.

It's a very stable solution. 

We haven't had any issues at all with the solution. 

While it can scale, there's too much difference between plans. We'd prefer it if it had a few other plan options that weren't so big in terms of differences. We'd like more flexible subscription plans. 

I cannot edit a document at the same time as another user.

I've been using the solution for two years. 

The solution is stable and reliable. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. The performance is good. 

There is scalability. However, the subscription plans jump too much from one plan to another. There's a very big difference between the two plans.

Five people are using the solution right now in my company.

We do not have plans to increase usage. 

I've never had any issues and therefore have never reached out to technical support. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they would be. 

We did previously use One Drive and Google Drive and other similar solutions. We prefer this solution as it allows for multiple users whereas the others do not. 

As it is cloud-based, you do not need to install anything. 

We did witness an ROI after three months. 

I'm not sure about the cost of the solution. 

I'd rate the solution six out of ten. 

Dropbox is used for storing data in the cloud. We use it for storing company documents for them to be accessed by other groups. For example, something gets published on Dropbox and we have the link for access.

Many people can use the Dropbox service and edit the data, it is simple to use.

The free storage amount should be increased.

I have been using Dropbox for approximately four years.

Dropbox is stable.

The solution is scalable.

We have approximately 500 using this solution in my organization.

Before we use Dropbox we use our internal storage.

The solution is paid for annually.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Dropbox an eight out of ten.

I only use the solution for personal use, on my mobile and computers. I use it exclusively for my file storage needs and do so on a personal, not organizational, basis. 

The solution obviates the need to store any extra sets of files or to do so on my physical device. I can use the cloud version for storage and easy retrieval. 

The solution allows one only a certain amount of free storage, but he must pay for a subscription, perhaps on a six-month basis, if he wishes to maintain this. While I feel the price being charged to be reasonable, it should either be more cost-effective or account for an increased amount of storage space. 

While I cannot say for certain exactly how long I have been using Dropbox, I know it has been a long time. 

I am not in a position to comment on the scalability. 

I have no intention of increasing my usage. I am happy with what I am using right now. 

I have not contacted Dropbox or Android technical support. 

As the solution is cloud-based, there is no installation involved. 

The solution allows one only a certain amount of free storage, but he must pay for a subscription, perhaps on a six-month basis, if he wishes to maintain this. While I feel the price being charged to be reasonable, it should either be more cost-effective or account for an increased amount of storage space.

I cannot comment on the performance, as I have not contemplated this, the solution being for personal use only. When I will no longer be in need of the solution, I will stop making use of it. 

I do not work on the actual software, but am just an end user. 

I do not have any specific advice for one who is contemplating using the solution. Each person must choose for himself if he wishes to use it. This said, I would recommend the solution for file storage needs. 

I rate Dropbox as a nine out of ten. 

We use Dropbox for our files when we finish our projects. For example, once we've done a forming project, we then upload the material. We do a first assembly cut on the material, and then we upload the content to Dropbox.

The final videos and productions that we use, all go into a Vimeo account that we have.

We don't really use the collaboration features because we have only a small organization. Dropbox is valuable having the hard drive space available, and the access to be able to upload and access the content.

I have been using Dropbox for approximately three years.

Dropbox is a stable solution.

The only challenge we have is the bandwidth that we have because the stability comes down to the broadband that we're using. We don't have fiber-deployed across the UK. The copper bandwidth speed limitations are what we have.

I have found the solution to be scalable.

We have the producer, director, editor, and our customer base using the solution. We share the files and they only take a look at the files.  They're not doing any editing or modifications.

We had some issues closing accounts with the administration support.

We use Vimeo and Dropbox both in parallel, and we have standalone disc arrays that we use for storage and backup.

The implementation is straightforward and we access Dropbox by using a login, whoever needs to access it can use the login.

We were using Dropbox previously. It was simple to set up the directories and the file-sharing capabilities we needed to use and the different levels of access to some of our stakeholders, customers, and editors.

We did the implementation ourselves.

The solution is meeting our business requirements, but I haven't done a total cost of ownership. What I'd have to do to answer if I have had an ROI properly is to deploy our own storage system and then set up the backup for it locally, in a private cloud environment locally in a data center, and find out what it would cost us to operate. We would probably need an admin in place as well to manage all of it and determine the cost of power, hardware, software, versus what we are paying on a subscription basis for that whole service Dropbox account. I have not done this to determine the cost return.

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.

They can't cancel the license and transfer the data over to the new business account easily. There seem to be some complexities involved.

We pay annually to use the solution and the price is approximately £600.

We are using the five terabyte option of the solution.

My advice to others would be to keep the deployment simple, and the solution is simple to scale. Put a solution in place that meets your requirements. If it's a new business, put in place what the business is requiring, and if you do need to scale out and increase costs, then it's straightforward to do, it's quite an easy platform to use. They have a few good options available and don't oversubscribe to capacity that you're not going to use.

I rate Dropbox an eight out of ten.

Dropbox is reliable, and I've never reached the storage limits.

The interface could have bigger buttons.

I've been using Dropbox for the last couple of years.

Dropbox is stable enough to use. It's fine.

Dropbox is a cloud storage solution, so there's not a whole lot to set up.

I rate Dropbox seven out of 10. 

We use Dropbox to store our documents.

The performance is good.

It is easy to use, very user-friendly.

They provide a generous amount of space.

Google Docs and Dropbox provide the same level of satisfaction as Pepsi and Coca-Cola.

The security is very good.

It is adequate for my needs, as well as those of the average person.

When you consider a private cloud for improved security, there will be fees, and the process will become more complicated.

If someone manages a large amount of data, they will need more storage, which they must purchase.

I have been using Dropbox for two years.

Dropbox is reliable.

It belongs to me, and I use it. If I want to share a document with someone, I give them access and then remove the rights after a set period of time.

I have also used Google Docs.

If you implement Google Docs, the Google directory is very intuitive.

I received assistance from Google. They are always available and quick to respond.

I would rate them a ten out of ten.

There is no installation because this is a cloud-based solution.

You can easily implement it yourself.

The amount of free space they provide is sufficient for me. However, if you want more space I don't believe is very expensive.

I don't pay any licensing fees.

I would recommend this solution to those who are not worried about their document being on a public cloud. It can be used by anyone; it is quite secure.

My scale is very small. I don't have many security requirements. I am at ease with the documents that I have saved.

This solution does its job well.

I would rate Dropbox a ten out of ten.
