Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365) is a Microsoft Cloud subscription service that includes Microsoft Office products (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook, Publisher, and Access). The software can be installed across multiple devices and ensures that users always have the most up-to-date version of the included Office applications.
I've not considered others, but I find that Dropbox is so versatile that I have not considered another platform. Dropbox makes it so easy for what I need to do. It allows me to store lots of related information tougher and to easily search for it. It allows me to share it too.

Chose Dropbox
I like the ease of sharing links from Dropbox to point someone directly to a file. There are virtually no steps to locating a file, whereas from our main server we have to connect through CiscoWeb and then login to the server.
OneDrive appears to be tied to a single user account, limiting file sharing abilities.

Chose Dropbox
I don't really use OneDrive because I have limited data for internet access. OneDrive always wants to upload everything I have on my computer, which uses way too much data. Dropbox allows me to choose what I upload easily. Google doesn't have the storage space Dropbox provides.
The filing system that Teams is based on is confusing when outside of Teams which then forces you to use only Teams to look for a collaboration. It is tough to search for things in Teams, but their keyword search does work well, however, you really need to know part of the …
Dropbox was more flexible and doesn't tie you into Microsoft ecosystem. SharePoint is also more complicated as you can create websites as well as share files and resources. There's talk of migrating to SharePoint at some point, but we're so used to working in Dropbox no one …
Dropbox blows them out of the water. Google Drive is so bad in every way, the only time we use it is when we have to with a client. idrive does not give the same usability and is more of a in the background backup. Box is clunky and not user friendly.
Dropbox has always been my top choice. I choose Dropbox over Google Drive as it is much more user-friendly.

Dropbox was in use here when I was hired to bring our IT department in-house. We evaluated Virtru, which we also use for email encryption, but with the low cost of Dropbox and its suitability for our needs, we found it did not make sense to switch.

Storage is greater with higher quality with Dropbox
The one thing I like about Google Drive is the ability for folks to work on ONE version of the document. Other than that, I don't like Google Drive. It's difficult to keep the formatting. Inevitably SOMETHING gets all messed up and you almost have to start over to fix things. …
We are focused on doc storage and sharing across multiple orgs. Each org has their preference - Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, etc. Dropbox connects all those dots.
Box is too nerdy for my clients. Dropbox has a cooler personality. Box sounds like someone with a pocket protector. Dropbox is someone who rarely uses paper, unless they are drawing on it.
Office 365 does what it does very well -- and nothing more. It is simple to implement across an organization and then share files and results, as well as organizing contacts and calendars.
However, Google Drive, iCloud Drive and Dropbox all also offer seamless cloud file-sharing …
Basically, Planner is nowhere as good and has nowhere as much functionality as Airtable, but Planner is included with MS 365 and good enough for us with no additional cost. Dropbox is actually really good and integrates well with MS 365. We actually use both Dropbox and …
I have used a few other products similar to Microsoft 365. I used to use Dropbox as a file storage, cloud based solution for storing documents and data. I was introduced to Microsoft 365 a few years after using Dropbox, and I prefer Microsoft because of the entire suite that …
Both Google and Dropbox have programs for creating content. They can get the job done but there is a reason Microsft 365 is an industry standard. You can pull together a bunch of different apps and try to get them to communicate together if you want. But it will be a headache. …
It's all about the network effect. Since everyone else at my school using Microsoft 365, eventually I had to bite the bullet and join the crowd. Using the officially supported file syncing and sharing solution solves a large number of problems right out of the box. Other …
Microsoft 365 provides a complete suite of tools, which none of the competition can match. Others can just offer piecemeal solutions, whereas Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365) covers everything ranging from email management to office editing software to cloud storage to …
Stability, high security, unique capabilities, speed of execution, cloud storage space, and compatibility and integration with other software has made this Microsoft product one of the best in the competitive market.
The main point was the integration of the tools: backup + email + text editors, all in one tool; Employees had greater difficulty creating presentations on their competitors' tools, as well as more advanced use of data sheets.
Microsoft Office 365 is more complete than Microsoft Office 2016. It is cloud-based, and this is a great advantage. Furthermore, now updates and upgrades are automatic and can be scheduled or accepted, really saving time compared to Office 2016.
Microsoft Office 365 is the easiest to access on the go and is always up to date. It is also affordable given all of the features it offers. Being able to use most of Microsoft's products for one price is convenient and allows our organization to store and sort information over …
Microsoft Office 365 was selected likely because most people at our company still find it to be more trustworthy than Google Drive. I personally would likely not have selected it, but do understand that it's the industry standard for most people. It's also a far lower cost for …
Having all of the offerings and services in one easy to use administrative interface makes administration of our Microsoft suite of applications much easier. We are not able to get that same integration with separated applications. Gmail is not very intuitive if you're coming …
Office remains the leader in the business productivity market. Apple's alternatives (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote) are nowhere near as powerful and Microsoft incorporates any good ideas they have very quickly (keynote's presentation mode). Google Docs/Sheets are convenient for …
