Dropbox for collaboration

I’m able to very easily copy files from my file system into Dropbox without copy delays, even for large files or large numbers of files. I’m able to easily navigate the directory structure and create or remove directories at will with minimal effort. I can be confident that Dropbox will maintain great uptime. It seems to work even if there are Internet interruptions.

It’s well-suited for file sharing, especially for read-only scenarios. I’m able to copy sets of files easily into Dropbox and provide someone without an account access to those files. In contrast I’ve seen other file sharing systems require recipients to have their own accounts, creating barriers to quick access. I particularly like being able to choose whether the recipient can edit the files. Also I really like being able to quickly copy files to Dropbox via Windows Explorer copies, having Dropbox integrated into the file system.
