Google Drive is slower and less reliably syncs. But it is excellent as a collaboration tool and permissions are incredibly easy to resolve. If we need to work in the cloud on written, sheet, or presentation documents, my preference is on Google Drive and their ecosystem.
Dropbox and OneDrive share many similar features. OneDrive excels in integration with other Microsoft products, but this can make the platform feel clunkier and more unwieldly. Dropbox excels in providing a suite of simple, easy to use tools that get the job done. The platform …
Dropbox is much better for file reliability, large asset management, and creative team workflows. It's definitely more reliable for file syncing (especially large files)
All of these product offer reliable cloud storage and file sharing capabilities but Dropbox is easy to use,fast file synchronization and smooth user experience.Team members were able to adopt it quickly with minimal training. Compared to other products it provide more …
Dropbox has similar characteristics as Microsoft SharePoint. Both have the ability to share files and access them from multiple devices. Both offer upgrades to higher levels of storage capacity. I tend to use Dropbox more for personal files or ones that I want to share outside …
Regarding the core syncing experience on macOS, Dropbox has been rock-solid and the best among the ones I listed here. Also, it provides a native Linux client, which makes it more cross-platform. I do still use iCloud and Google Drive for other purposes. But for the main file …
The other platform has too many limitations on the storage end, and since I was already a client of Dropbox, it was easier to stay with the same platform.
Hate to be a broken record but it all goes back to ease of use and doing business. OneDrive and iCloud have extra steps to give access and it becomes cumbersome
Dropbox has the best value to feature ratio- and is so much more responsive and reliable than Google Drive- it is almost unusable for storing large media files especially folders of files!
I find that Dropbox works best for me, because I'm able to simply visit a website, drop off my files, and create a shareable link. Everything in Dropbox is more organised and quicker than the other products I've used - at least, in my experience.
We still use both, but we use Dropbox more for media files (photos, videos, photoshop files etc.) due to it's enhanced searching, organization and visual layout.
I prefer Dropbox due to the amount of features available as well as the esthetic of the platform. It just feels more premium & capable than some of it's competitors. It also is able to organize a lot easier. I have found the mobile usability to be far superior than some other …
We no longer use Teamwork but when we did, we tried to house documents but we'd always forget where they were. They weren't easy to access. Dropbox we still use sometimes, but if all our clients used quip, we would no longer need to use dropbox except for audio and video files …
Confluence is one that I think is semi comparable. I think SharePoint is very similar in nature and OneNote would be comparable as well. I think from a collaboration standpoint it's probably the best out of them. Like I said, it's not very good for version control. I think …
Quip is simpler lighter and easier to use than the Atlassian products. Atlassian products could be more complete and have more functionalities, but it is hard to master all the functionalities.
1. We use it as an effective way of collaboration between teams. 2. Can be used as an online spreadsheet. 3. It helps in accessing the data by multiple teams hassle-free. 4. Can customize the action, like editing or locking the spreadsheet to the other users based on the …
Quip was easier to use than any options when we were looking (5 years ago now). Google didn't really offer offline options. OneDrive was (and still is) not great. ShareFile was only considered because we already were using it for file transfer. Quip didn't have any real …
It's easy to use and can be integrated with more 3rd-party software and documents--multiple formats are supported. And the unique feature of chatting makes it very useful, as you not need to switch to any other app for having a discussion with your team. Also data can be synced …
Quip is more robust because it pulls data in from Salesforce to allow you to collaborate with real information. You don't have to live in two systems, which is great. It also gives you access to share with external users, like these other solutions. However, it is not a 1-1 …
Notion was very good in my personal use of it; however, I have used Quip in a professional environment, and the integration of security control was superb. I think that Quip's version of tables and spreadsheets is better than Notion, but they are very similar in many aspects.
monday.com is a good product but lacks overall capabilities compared with Quip. Quip doesn't look visually appealing like monday.com but is more functional when it's broken down into real-time management categories and embedded files. You can easily assign files and tasks to …
Quip was much better. I often have difficulty formatting Google Docs the way I'd like and especially searching for what I need. Sometimes in Google Docs I'll search the exact title of something I'm searching for and it will not appear. That's not an issue with Quip.
We needed to find a way to work together on documents and, to get out of emailing and converge on a single solution. We tried to use our intranet tool, Jive, but that was too cumbersome and hard. Others used Google Docs, but that was not very secure. We looked within Salesforce …
Quip is the best in terms of collaborative features its robustness features are worse compared to the two software. I consider Quip as the big company to watch which will compete with big companies over time.
Main competitors for Quip are the Microsoft and Google product suites respectively. Quip wins in terms of collaborative features, but lags in robustness in comparison to the much large incumbents. Though I do see Quip as a company to watch, who will be capable of competing …
While Quip is a fine tool, I personally would recommend an organization leverage Google Work Suite for Docs, Slides, and Sheets over Quip. I found Quip's feature set to be limited in relation to Google, all things considered. However, Quip can be valuable if your company has …
It's like Google Docs or Microsoft Word, but more team-focused than either. It also reminds me of Slack a little bit in how you can add comments and everyone can view documents right in one place. There's also a side bar where chats can occur. I also really like that you can …
Google Drive is an obvious choice for a collaboration suite, but it still has this old-fashioned Windows 95 feel to it, with the standard file system hierarchy and spread-sheet like lists of files. Quip has a fresh take on the user interface, and the comments and discussion on …
Quip is a powerful yet simple software. It allows for all docs, spreadsheets and slides to be online, easily shareable and editable. Its interface is really easy to use and beautiful. Their templates ate AMAZING, including things like calendars!
slack is visually pleasant, has nice features. Its learning curve, the templates and documents management, and the team communication are also very good, and another point that stands out is the template feature (and I'm sure they will add more in future updates.) It helps gain …
Dropbox is well suited for sending File Requests to clients to upload documents, and for me to send File Transfers to clients with documents for them to download. I can create separate files for each client, and also create files within files, which is very convenient and useful for my business purposes. In Dropbox I can also see all of the File Requests that I have sent and it shows me how many times they've accessed it and how many files they uploaded. I can also see all of the File Transfers that I have made and whether how many times the client has accessed it and how many documents were downloaded. It also sends me notifications if the clients haven't downloaded their files yet so I can remind them. Dropbox Sign has been very easy to use, and I have already stated what could be changed with it
Well, they are suited. 1. We use it as an effective way of collaboration between teams. 2. Can be used as an online spreadsheet. 3. It helps in accessing the data by multiple teams hassle-free. 4. Can customize the action, like editing or locking the spreadsheet to the other users based on the business need. Less Suited/inappropriate: 1. The UI is very much outdated. 2. The number of rows to be added to the spreadsheet has limitations. & We have to create a new Quip every now & then once the row limits are reached. 3. Can't do a detailed analysis like pivots tables etc. 4. Other functions like sort & filter options in Quip are not so user-friendly, unlike other spreadsheets out there in the market.
Our experience with Quip has been nothing short of astounding; I love everything about this collaboration tool.
I love that it is cross-platform and works so well on mobile devices; it makes it unhindered to make progress on to-dos, take notes, export spreadsheets and documents, and have all my information organized within one environment.
I also love that it notifies me when someone has done something in shared documents and the incredible ease of linking documents in chats.
Quip's user interface is friendly and comfortably navigable; it feels right.
I’d like to be able to hover over an image/document and have it expand/enlarge without actually opening it
I’d love to see a carousel that lets me thumb through more quickly
I’m almost always in thumbnail view. I’d like to see them re-organize automatically when something is moved or deleted instead of leaving an empty space.
Update frequency - it feels like I need to update the application about twice a week. It's important to push new functionality and address bugs, but it often feels like the Quip team doesn't have their release schedule planned out very well. Constant updates are disruptive and counterproductive.
Automatic date reminders - Quip will automatically set a date into a reminder as you type it, which could be a useful feature, but it just ends up being annoying. More often than not I'm just typing today's date in a document to track meeting minutes, or potentially adding in an expected delivery date, for which I really don't need a reminder.
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.
It works extremely well, and we have never had any issues with connecting or sharing files. It's very easy to use, and any team member can share, add, and delete files to a virtual drive. This is extremely helpful, and it's an amazing tool to use, ensuring everyone can connect and work together effectively.
It is the best collaboration tool in my company. Through it, the organization has achieved better connectivity and efficiency in its communication. Primarily, the docs feature of this software is the most utilized in the company. Slowly, dash-boarding and project management features have also been utilized. Generally, it is the best tool, very easy and fairly streamlined
I really recommend the product for the Dropbox availability is a great having very very less downtimes, they errors are less I have been faced yet, due to connectivity sometimes we are getting errors. Only sometimes the limitations of some features show some errors.
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.
They immediately responded like in an example that I gave where one of our staff members accidentally deleted the whole Special Hope Network Dropbox, we immediately contacted Dropbox they walked us through the steps of how to retrieve the information and luckily enough we were able to retrieve the entire Dropbox and we have had back and forth with Dropbox on what to do when an employee leaves how to remove them how to add another employee.
I have never used Quip's support. To be fair, we hired someone who used to work for Quip before working at our company, and he implemented it and pushed it with the team. He was very biased toward the product, and yes it was better than Google Drive, but by how much?
The person for corporate product dealing and knowledge of the product explore and better and secure use are properly handover to us. Also provide full software and tool training from the basic to the pro level with each and every possible explanation. Provide many sessions regarding every doubt. Also Guide better suitable options for our business to migrate and integrate for the expansion in all places employee smoothly.
I did not personally take any training for Dropbox so I am self taught but I know when our Vice President selected Dropbox, he personally did do some training modules on it and I'm assuming it was very easy and simple to understand since he now acts like he is a pro at it!
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.
I prefer the layout and visual aspect of Dropbox as it mirrors my files on my computer. I feel that I am more organized, and it's easier to find my files in Dropbox than it was with Google Drive.
Confluence is one that I think is semi comparable. I think SharePoint is very similar in nature and OneNote would be comparable as well. I think from a collaboration standpoint it's probably the best out of them. Like I said, it's not very good for version control. I think Confluence does a much better job of versioning control, but as far as all the other ones, I think it does way better than OneNote or SharePoint.
It's easy to integrate with the systems of Windows and Linux, easy to have web versions accessible, which provide the web login credentials. Also, it can be installed for individuals for the best autosync features.
Quip has increased the efficiency of our copywriters by making it easier to organize projects, eliminate emails (requesting for review), and eliminated version conflicts.
Quip has simplified the hand-off between copy and graphics. Instead of having to put together an email with all the copy and images, a Quip doc can house everything and a simple notification lets the designers know a project is ready for design.
Quip has allowed much easier visibility into the work of the copywriters in order for me to see when a project is ready to move along.
