ShareFile is a cloud-based file sharing and storage service built for business. The product was acquired by Citrix Systems in 2011.
Dropbox is the most user-friendly when compared to similar software applications. It also seems to have the most functionality built into one program with the exception of maybe ShareFile, however, ShareFile comes at a much higher cost. I am skeptical of the security provided …
Dropbox is more secure to use than Google Drive and is way easier to use than ShareFile.

I essentially only used Avionte as a database to store info for payroll purpose only. The interface is not as user friendly as Dropbox and it doesn't save documents. I use ShareFile(Rightsignature) to send potential applicants on-boarding documents. It stores all the documents …
Dropbox is a more trusted source that I feel comfortable using for so many important documents. Other websites tend to crash and create corrupted or missing documents.
Both tools are very good. ShareFile has more security, but Dropbox is more user-friendly. We actually have been back and forth on which platform to use. Many of us use Dropbox personally, but understand the business value add of ShareFile with healthcare clients.
ShareFile is cheaper than the other file sharing services, and it has better security. Having to pay additional for Active Directory integration is a serious downfall. Dropbox had poor security flaws. ShareFile iOS integration severely pales to other services, especially Dropbox…
We have used Dropbox and evaluated other file sharing services before getting ShareFile, but we found that ShareFile was more secure and more cost-efficient than other services.
Dropbox was sufficient, but it required downloading Adobe Acrobat. And I'll tell you this - many people in our organization aren't the best with installing the 'right' software (i.e., they do a Google search, click a link, click the wrong download button and install some other …
The only comparison that I can think of is Dropbox. I liked the user interface and features better with Citrix Sharefile compared to Dropbox. The price was also more reasonable for business than Dropbox. We've used ShareFile for years and have no plans of switching to another …
Dropbox and Box are both great file-sharing services as well but offer minimal integration features for the programs. The UI for both is simpler but the workflow features of Citrix make it a win for us as it gives us the ability to automate many things we used to manually do, …
I think Citrix ShareFile is more secure and reliable than Dropbox. It definitely projects an aura of professionalism to use ShareFile rather than Dropbox. It's like the difference between a lawyer having an email address from his own domain versus a lawyer using a Gmail …
Google Drive and Dropbox have been out a long time but I think that ShareFile takes the best part of those software and then adds some. If you are looking for something more manageable that is so easy to implement company-wide, then ShareFile would be a great option. While …
Cost is the main reason that we went with Citrix ShareFile. Both have the functionality that we need. Dropbox is more robust (though Citrix ShareFile is catching up), but we have no need for the more robust features. We were essentially able to have 1 additional user for free …
Dropbox Business makes it really difficult to share individual folders collaboratively with a PASSWORD with outside users. I didn't realize this until I was locked in for a year, so I was mad. Citrix allows for storage that is useful to me and secure for the clients.
Cost, ease of use, and reliability make this the far superior product. Dropbox performs well but has had quirks like constant disconnects, file syncs not showing up in a timely manner, etc. OneDrive is just overall invasive and frustrating until properly set-up.
Dropbox--I don't believe it has the robust encryption capabilities as does ShareFile package that we use; I think it has electronic signing, but I don't know to what extent that feature is legally authenticated for HIPAA standards.
First and foremost we are both a Citrix and Microsoft partner so we will always recommend their products. 3 years ago we found ShareFile's biggest selling point was the ease of setup, administration, and ease of use while still being an enterprise-grade product. We also enjoyed …
Dropbox for Business coming further along and could surely offer the FTP like functionality we are looking for as well as the centralized admin piece but there were two main things Dropbox could not help us with. They did not offer the Outlook plugin capability nor did they …
Other platforms allow you to share information but without the security and confirmation guarantees that ShareFile offers. Although they provide fewer features, they are often less intuitive and less easy to work with. To date we do not consider trying other options, as we do …
One of the main issues we had with other file storage software in the past has been the ability for users to accidentally delete data from the entire company account and not just their specific user access or profile. There were not enough safeguards and warning messages in …
Our main determination of moving to Citrix ShareFile is the recognized security features. ShareFile was created with this in mind and went out of their way in the sales process to help us understand their features. We also work with many large healthcare organizations so this …
Functionally, they're on the same level as ShareFile. However, my experience with each of these was from a personal account perspective. From a corporate level, knowing that my data lives in my data center and not having to go through the hassle of negotiating a BAA makes …
ShareFile has a more native feel which is helpful for the “older” employees.
The search feature in ShareFile.com is fast and searches document text along with tags and keywords.
I perceive ShareFile to be a more secure solution for real estate than the others. And easier to transmit documents to and from. And Citrix is based here in Raleigh, so I do enjoy supporting a local business.
