Overall Satisfaction with Dropbox

I love Dropbox. It has simple integration with my devices. It is my go-to storage for all my work and private files. It doesn’t matter where I am or who I’m with my files are available. I would like to see it have a greater compatibility with Microsoft sometimes. I have a One Drive too and the autosave function in MS is great. How can Dropbox get this integration working.

Pros

  • Always available across platforms
  • Easy to set up
  • Easy to work with

Cons

  • Pricing plans. I would really like to see a plan between the free version and the 2tb one. I don’t need that much space so I end up paying for way more than I need
  • It is simply a tool for me. If it works as it should it is a business asset. Dropbox works as it should so it’s an asset to me.
I have never had any issues with using it.

Do you think Dropbox delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Yes

Did Dropbox live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Dropbox go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Dropbox again?

I am always cautious that there are alternatives out there. I am extremely happy with Dropbox but understand some won’t necessarily agree with my stance. We always have the MS sycophants.
