Overall Satisfaction with Dropbox

I use Dropbox to share files between coworkers. I also use it to store files outside my local computer. Sharing files between coworkers is very useful for our organization because my company is remote and everyone is scattered across the country for their work locations. Dropbox lets us share things easily. It's especially useful for sharing video files because I work in design and coworkers can send me a video of what they're seeing on their screen, enabling me to quickly address the design issue without having to get on a zoom call and use screen sharing.
  • sharing files with others
  • sharing video coworkers have recorded of their screen
  • helping us work together at a remote company
  • ease of access from my desktop
  • organization of files
  • real time document editing with multiple users
  • being able to share video files makes my job on the design team easier because coworkers can send me screen recordings of issues they're having
  • great for our remote company to share files since we don't have local servers
  • we use google docs for files we need to group edit, so a feature allowing that in dropbox would make the product more useful to us

Would you buy Dropbox again?

Yes

It works well for sharing files across an organization with coworkers. It's a good way to have a shared drive of files that everyone has access to. This is especially important at a remote company like mine where everyone works in different locations and time zones across the country. It's less useful for storing files that need to stay private. I tend to keep files I want to stay private on my local computer and not sync them to dropbox.
