Overall Satisfaction with Dropbox

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Dropbox to download and store photos of my real estate listings. I like using Dropbox because I have a place where I can allow my transaction coordinator to also access the images for uploading my photos to the MLS. I store these pictures on Dropbox for future use as well, especially in the case where a property that is leased comes available again. Using Dropbox keeps me from exceeding my device's memory.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Easy to access photos when away from my device
Easy to organize and find images/documents
Easy to share access

Cons

Periodically, I download to Dropbox but can't find where they went
Sometimes, I think data gets lost
More transparency on storage capacity and future cost

Return on Investment

Makes file sharing easy
Storage all in one easy to access place
Readily available app/software

Usability

I like Dropbox overall. I am honestly too busy to shop around, so for the sake of easy... Dropbox checks the box. Improvements can be made in storage capacity/cost transparency, but overall, I am satisfied.

Likelihood to Recommend

Dropbox is great for storing files off device that can be accessed from anywhere. It may not be the best choice if you have a massive amount of data to store, because it does max out and additional storage is required, so definitely check to see what your needs are and what that translates to expense-wise on Dropbox.
