Dropbox Business - Enterprise Reviews

Dropbox is used to store files and I am using it on a personal level.

The most valuable features of Dropbox are it can be used as a repository of all the photographs and videos that you have on the cloud. You do not need to worry about the hard disk crashing.

Dropbox can improve by enhancing the capacity of storage in the free version.

I have been using Dropbox for a few years.

Dropbox is a stable solution.

The scalability of Dropbox is good, but you would need to increase your subscription if you want more capacity.

I have not used the support from Dropbox.

I have not used another similar solution to Dropbox.

We are using the free version of Dropbox which has approximately two gigabytes of data capacity.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Dropbox an eight out of ten.

I use Dropbox for personal use, mainly for storing photographs and other personal documents. 

I like how user-friendly the solution is. 

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. 

I would like to see the solution more flexible and open, and certainly more affordable. 

No installation was necessary because it's all on the cloud. 

I believe I pay around $5 per month for the license. 

I rate this solution an 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. 

I use DropBox to store pictures and files. It's a cloud solution like OneDrive, but Dropbox is for personal use, and I use OneDrive professionally.

I've used Dropbox for a couple of years or more but not extensively. I use OneDrive more often. 

DropBox is stable.

DropBox is a little more complicated to scale up than OneDrive. It isn't as seamless to scale up storage or change the number of users. We have two or three users in Mumbai, and we don't plan to add more.

We haven't had any issues that required us to contact support. 

I was using USB-based external storage before DropBox.

Setting up DropBox is straightforward, and one person can do it in less than five minutes.

I rate DropBox eight out of 10.

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.
