Overall Satisfaction with Dropbox
Dropbox is still my favorite file sharing/file storage tool (we used to and still do use Google Drive and Box as well). We use Dropbox in teams -- the finance team has their folders to share monthly close items, work papers, etc.; the marketing team shares their content, graphics, etc. It makes working on files together extremely easy, also across organizations (which is a Google Drive problem for me...). Our fractional controller for example does not have a Google account.
- Easy file overview (I love being able to use my regular finder on Mac).
- Quick uploads, and supports large files.
- Storage space is absolutely sufficient.
- I truly can't think of one, except maybe a version history in files?
- We've seen shorter time to find files for team members.
- We've seen better control of up-to-date files/current information.
- Google Drive and Box
Dropbox is still my favorite file sharing tool! It is simple, straightforward, and both the web app as well as Desktop hot folder are so intuitive and reactive.
What bothers me about Google Drive (which we still use within the team to quickly review/comment on documents) is the sharing functionality with folks that are outside of your organization, and for me is a less easy overview of my files than having those through a hot folder on my laptop.
Box feels a bit more clunky and not as quick to use, although it gives a very comparable feature set.
