Overall Satisfaction with Dropbox

I have been using Dropbox for years. When with an older company, we used it as our entire company server for all files, from sales, through to production. The ability to have access anywhere is huge. I also love being able to share large files so easily. I am not using it personally as I do some consulting work and it remains amazing. Having access to old files is also huge, plus peace of mind that I personally cannot get hacked and have my data stolen. I couldn't work without Dropbox.

Pros

  • Anywhere file access
  • Secure storage
  • Easily transfer large files
  • Saves having so store locally

Cons

  • The cost is a bit high when using Dropbox for business and adding users
  • Security settings are a bit wonky and hard to get correct
  • .
  • It is a cost I don't have to think about and it is worth every penny
  • It allows me to act in a very professional manner
  • My clients love being able to receive file links
I have had issues with security settings when using Dropbox for business. I cannot simply copy a link without giving access first. All my settings seem to show I am allowing link transfers without passwords however.

I thought they were very similar but liked the overall user experience with Dropbox better

It makes life so easy and fast. Having access to files anywhere I am is amazing. Being able to share files and folders with a few clicks saves having to find a file transfer service. It works so seamless on my Mac, it is like having all my files saved local, without bogging it down.
