Overall Satisfaction with Dropbox
Are use Dropbox to back up my work files, and also ensure that I don’t lose anything from computer failure. I also use Dropbox to send files to clients. Because it is secure and fast at backing up my files.
- Backing up
- Online access
- Sharing
- File search
- File version for accidental overwrite
- Image sequence preview
- File tagging keywords
- Price plans for freelancers working in video. File space of video production is huge. I have to pay for 3 accounts which is very expensive.
- They ability to work in marketing or visual effects, I can produce video content and share it quickly with my clients.
- Keeping my files secure, so I know that if anything goes wrong with my computer files are backed up super fast.
- There is no in between price point plan for the $25 a month for one user or forcing me to have three $25 a month plans for more space. I work in video and get sent massive files all the time and I feel like how much I have to spend versus what I make after files doesn’t add up. Since Dropbox made changes to no longer allow me to have unlimited space they’ve given me the option to add more users for more space. I would like to have the option of starting from one user to two users to three users not forced to start at three.
- I have to run her a lot of my videos in image sequence format, which does help prevent any loss of data if I render crashes or hard drive failure. I can continue where the image sequence last left off on the Dropbox backup. However, in my experience, I cannot preview image sequences as videos.
- I would like the option of showing my work to my clients at a high quality option because sometimes the only way to show the client what I’m working on is to show the video from Dropbox and it’s very low quality I've found. I wish there was a quality option in settings like YouTube. Keeping a low quality at the start but at least give me the option to turn the quality higher.
