Dropbox Business Reviews

Dropbox is well known in the cloud storage industry. It has been around for years and has a relatively good reputation. The interface is easy to use and it makes sharing files relatively painless. The price point for the business version may be too high for small businesses, so they may want to consider a different version or competitive pricing with products like GoogleDrive or OneDrive.

DropBox is the industry standard for cloud file storage and cloud file sharing. The platform is well suited for all of the creative industries due to the general large file sizes in play. Cloud platforms like DropBox are also well suited for any company wishing to break away from the server workstation model and/or have the ability to take all your files "with you" wherever you go without taking up your entire hard drive. Specifically - DropBox Business is not suited for the individual user - if you don't have multiple users that you need to manage, then go with the Individual plans.

If all your organization needs is an easy to setup and reliable way to sync files and folder b/w multiple computers, Dropbox sync engine is second to none. In addition, if you primarily work with other users, both within and without your organization, Dropbox makes it extremely easy to share files and folders with other users. There are some well designed and easy to use admin and management tools that make managing your organization fairly easy to do. Compared to other services (such as Microsoft's OneDrive or Box), the admin center is well laid out and easy to understand.

When used within a small organization - maybe a dozen employees - implementing Dropbox and scaling it out to your users is a fairly easy thing to do. However, in larger organizations, especially in an organization that is already using a centralized server for file sharing, implementing Dropbox is a far more time consuming tasks - and can take a certain amount of trial and error to implement it in the most effective way possible.

In addition, cost is a major consideration. At $12.5/user/month or $20/user/month (both if billed yearly - $15/month or $25/month if done a month-to-month basis), costs can add up quickly.

Dropbox is great for companies that need to share access to files (and entire folders) both inside and outside of their organization. Dropbox is great for always having the latest version of a file available for all who need it. Dropbox is not well suited as a Digital Assets Management solution for media.

If you need to store a large number of files that need to be backed up and inaccessible to some employees, but not others, Dropbox Business is great. If you don't have a lot of files and your organization is small, you probably don't need to pay for this service with its per-user pricing. If you are using very large media files, the storage space might fill up too fast compared to text files and PDFs.

If you are sharing a lot of large files with team members or clients, Dropbox Business could work wonders for you. There are only a handful of ways to share large files online and Dropbox is one of the simplest and easiest ways to do so. I highly recommend it for the headache it will take away!

I would highly recommend Dropbox Business to all those people or companies that are looking for a solution that can satisfy their needs for secure storage and file sharing in the network, since it has all the fundamental characteristics for this service.

I think Dropbox Business is the best cloud sync storage pro for file storage and sharing, I can not think of a better application out there. Why would anyone want to use Google Drive, when it is so easy and efficient to use Dropbox Business? I can't think of a scenario where I would not choose Dropbox Business for my department.

For a small, remote team like ours that is often on the road, Dropbox is great because it can be accessed by anyone anywhere. The mobile app is really nice and handy in client meetings to pull up documents.

Dropbox is useful for anyone engaged in the process of collaboration, particularly involving documents.

Dropbox Business works great for sharing large files, especially videos and audio files. We find it's the best option for sharing internationally. It is not appropriate for sharing smaller sized files you can just link to or attact— it becomes more work than you need.

I do think that Dropbox is an appropriate platform for storing large creative files that may be PSDs or other Adobe files. However, it is unfortunate that you can not edit documents (like excel or word documents) through this platform. It would facilitate a lot of product management, especially when there are multiple edits to a creative file.

For small businesses to exchange documents, a cheaper option would be Recilio Sync or the free version of Dropbox. For a medium-sized company, Dropbox is suitable for exchanging and storing non-confidential documentation. At first, it's easier to start with a standard business plan. Perhaps the existing functions(options) would be enough, and if not, there is always an opportunity to update plan.

If any team is using any same shared folders for documents and files, then anyone can share files with everyone within seconds. We can just move our files to a Dropbox folder on our system and it will sync automatically, and notifications will be sent to other users about the modification or addition of file. Then another person can open the Dropbox folder in their system to access files. No need for hard drives or pen drives.

It is well suited for a company where people are spread around the globe. It is also good for companies that make people collaborate to meet the results for every project. Lastly, it is easy to use and you don't need to be tech-savvy to know everything you can do in Dropbox Business.

I find Dropbox Business particularly well suited as a media and file management tool for growing teams that have large files that need to be accessed by team members that may work out of different offices or remotely. It is a key tool for internal collaboration as well as sharing with external partners and collaborators. I would imagine it is not as helpful for less collaborative teams.

Dropbox is great if you need to share Microsoft documents and do not need real time collaboration. It also works great if you want to share any other types of files with other people. Where it is lacking is in document collaboration. I understand that is not the core use case however I find myself not using Dropbox often because I need to document collaboration features Google offers.

The world we live in is digital. All the jobs you can find need storage in the cloud. That's where Dropbox helps you because you can save your information on the company's servers in an easy and secure way (if you have a good password) Now, the paid version of 2TB is to store a lot of information. I think there should be a paid version with less capacity. let's say 500Gb. Sometimes 2TB is a lot for one person

Most useful for accessing documents on the go, or to back up files when switching to a new computer or other devices. The business subscription is great for sharing documents with co-workers, storing commonly used files (such as logos and templates), and for collaboration. Doesn't have all the features of other project management software, but for document sharing, it has everything I need. The recent updates to the platform are helpful in providing quick access to files. Also, I really like that you can link your personal and business accounts.

Dropbox Business is perfectly suited for basic file sharing within an organization or company, or at times where one needs to share a file with an external entity, the files can be password protected so only the approved person can access the data.

It is less appropriate for Provider/client interaction, for example, I would not use Dropbox as a service to send deliverables to a client, such as reports or quotations.

It is also not suited for companies that demand stringent security measures such as banks or other financial institutions.

It is very good for small organizations or very large organizations. Everything in between may have problems with the sheer cost of maintaining the users' costs. Also, it is not recommended if your company has a huge amount of data as currently, Dropbox lowered the amount of storage they're offering for small businesses.

Well suited for any size team, but does have more of it limits. I'd recommend exploring all the various cloud based storage systems to know where your needs are the strongest. For us, we're a relatively small team, not technology focused, so the simplicity and strength of Dropbox was just what we needed. I think if you're a leading organization in the tech space, this might not make the most sense.

Dropbox Paper is well-suited for a small organization to immediately begin collaborating and iterating on different topics and subjects and come to a conclusion to can be implemented and referred back to. It is very important for companies early on to start documenting and recording everything for future reference and learnings.

Dropbox Business is well suited for companies that have a lot of large files in different formats because it allows 2TB. Once you share folders with others you never know how many files they are putting in as well, but I have never had to worry about space with Dropbox Business.

When sharing non-sensitive documents it is well suited. If you are not sharing financial, medical or personal data Dropbox is a great tool. However, if you are using Dropbox in those scenarios there is really the need for third-party plugins to give more control and governance around the data. Third party tools will scan documents and make sure they are not being shared inappropriately and even further encrypt sensitive data.
