    Axcient x360Sync

    I am unlikely to recommend Axcient x360Sync because competing products have evolved more quickly over the last few years and are better in nearly all aspects. Axcient x360Sync works as expected, but without as many features as can be found elsewhere. One aspect of the product that is easier to use and more intuitive than other products is the secure file sharing feature. If that is your main use, then Axcient x360Sync may be the best choice.

    Dropbox is used in a variety of ways at our workplace. Sharing documents with our team on the go is made possible by Dropbox. Once a file is uploaded to Dropbox, team members can view and discuss it immediately. Some of the new features make it easier for us to keep things organized and maintain continuity during our meetings. We will store large files on it and send them to clients or suppliers via a link. A sales campaign's data is also stored in Dropbox. For example, it enables our marketing team to work on various sales campaigns from any location.

    • We are transferring large files and multiple files with various internal and external parties due to the ease of sharing files and folders.
    • Smart sync, so you don't have to worry about device space and search large file batches quickly.
    • Synchronizing a data file across organizations without the user having to do anything other than work is a significant benefit of cloud computing.
    • Allowing only the people who need it to have access is a huge perk and works well with other enterprise software.

    Cons

    Axcient x360Sync

    • Integration with OS and applications is lacking when compared to competing products.
    • On-demand file download is not as intuitive as other file sync products.
    • 2FA on logins has intermittent issues that cause it to not work.

    • At one point 2 gigs [were] deemed enough for the "Free" version of Dropbox and its competition. However as even the most simple picture from a phone gets larger, 2 gigs might no longer be enough. Might want to increase the free size to adjust for file size inflation.
    • Dropbox's app is very presumptive of updating itself every time you log on to a system that it's installed on. I know that's a feature you can turn off, but the assumption to turn that feature on by default is annoying.
    • Dropbox could use a phone app function that would initiate a download to a designated computer hard drive. It would eliminate having to see the file on your phone, go to your computer, turn it on and then download the file.

    Dropbox is a user-friendly, easy tool which requires little to no skill and they offer a free version with a good amount of storage available. There are other file sharing tools available however at a cost. Dropbox free version I have used for years and it serves every purpose I need.

    Dropbox is dead simple to us since right out of the box, it creates a folder on your PC and anything added to it gets synced to the cloud and any other device signed into that account. You can then dive deeper into permissions, version history, etc. Overall though, the minimalist approach is welcome since not everyone we work with is highly technical and that itself saves us time and money. Many of our colleagues already use Dropbox for their personal cloud so no training is required when using it at work other than going over our own company guidelines and best practices.

    Dropbox is really useful, you can access any file from anywhere and you can upload and even edit files online, but, sometimes it can be slow. Downloading, uploading, and syncing is a bit slow, it can take several minutes. Furthermore, the search engine for large amounts of data can be slow too and it is not powerful.

    It has not been necessary to go to customer support lately, since everything works perfectly. However, I must add that at the beginning when I started using Dropbox, and I had any doubts about how it worked, customer support was always attentive and found the best solutions effectively.

    I needed to stay current in improving my daily operations. Dropbox
    was suggested to me by a former colleague two-years ago and I've been using it just fine ever since.

    Alternatives Considered

    Axcient x360Sync

    Several years ago, we evaluated OnDrive and were more impressed with Axcient x360Sync, but that has changed recently. OneDrive is simply easier to use with intuitive integration into Windows and Microsoft Office apps as well easy on-demand file downloads. We still use Axcient x360Sync, but we are in the process of migrating to OneDrive.

    Dropbox

    Of all the options we tried, Dropbox was at the top in terms of performance, reliability, and features.Nextcloud is a self-hosted solution, and is the system preferred by our IT department — mainly because it is free or has no annual subscription cost. However, it's UI is clunky compared to Dropbox's. It didn't sync files as well, couldn't preview some file types, and had other technical problems. Even though it was locally hosted, it was slower than Dropbox.Google Drive is another service we used in tandem with the others. It is great for collaborative documents and spreadsheets, and does OK with some other types of projects. But for file sharing it didn't work as well, and our plan didn't allow for enough storage space compared to the other options. For my personal home use, I use pCloud. It works great, and has an optional lifetime purchase plan: You have perpetual use for a one-time payment. I like that you can sync specific subfolders to a computer, but it is more tedious or technical to set up compared to Dropbox.

    • It's wide usage and wide acceptance in the business world makes it easy to work with other individuals and companies, speeding up collaboration.
