Overall Satisfaction with Dropbox

Used to store all information and files, by state and by job. Accessible to all site and office staff, avoiding ineffective communication on the front of commercial, construction drawings, and tendering.
  • Uploading collaborative excel sheets
  • Organisation of folder structure
  • Keeping record of changes and by whom
  • Sometimes poor communication in what is being uploaded
  • Sometimes when backing up it seems to change all file change dates to the backup date
  • Access to latest drawing sets for site staff stops making mistakes on stie
  • Ability to run commercially from this allows collaboration with head office easily
OneDrive it is very similar to, however it integrates well into windows.

Teams is better for common communication as well as working on the exact same document at the same time

Do you think Dropbox delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Dropbox's feature set?

Yes

Did Dropbox live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Dropbox go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Dropbox again?

Yes

Appropriate to run tenders and jobs from. You can save all drawings and it is easy to use for the less tech savvy site staff

Not as good as Teams for example to work on the same thing at the same time. Probably only time I move away from it
