Dropbox Review

PROS: I tried different cloud storage platforms before I stumbled upon Dropbox. I discovered that Dropbox has better features. It can handle any file type without issues, and it conveniently allows sharing whenever needed as well. Moreover, it offers up to 50GB of storage space for each account, which is significantly larger than what other options provide.

CONS: It comes with a small limited space for a free account, which is much similar to other online storage solutions. This is understandable, however, that is why you should go for the paid version for larger storage space. And I think it has no other disadvantages aside from this one.

PROS: Dropbox is a trusty platform with a clean and smooth interface. It is very convenient, and it supports different file types such as audio, video, and image items. It receives frequent updates with more cool features too. And to top it off, Dropbox is significantly more affordable than other popular choices.

CONS: Dropbox has an inconvenient upload speed of only 1 to 2 Mbps slow. I encountered some bugs here and there. It also has unreliable user support especially on Facebook. This can potentially push people to use other cloud storage solutions instead.

PROS: This is a very useful platform because it lets me confidently share sensitive files with my employees and business partners instantly. It runs smoothly on different devices too, such as on desktop, laptop, and mobile. Dropbox is surely a handy software that I use on the go.

CONS: The Dropbox interface when presenting files and folders is quite complex. A simpler and easier to use interface would be helpful.

PROS: Dropbox has an easy to use online storage platform where I can save any files without worrying about security risks. It is a powerful software that doesn’t have serious bugs; thus, I trust uploading personal and sensitive files into my Dropbox account. Dropbox is surely a highly suggested platform to use!

CONS: I do not dislike anything with Dropbox. It offers a superb and convenient UI which makes it function seamlessly.

PROS: I haven’t encountered any problems when installing Dropbox. After installation, I began saving and sharing files through it instantly as well.

CONS: I notice some troubles when handling large files. Dropbox sometimes takes a lot of time to refresh.

PROS: Dropbox is a terrific online storage platform that lets multiple people save and share files, which is perfect for collaboration. This is regardless of the difference in location and time availability. Each can easily edit files while collaborating for certain tasks. All of these make Dropbox extremely helpful for me since we need to link different colleges together. Even if we’re located in different workplaces, this platform has made it efficient for us to access and work on certain files and folders through online collaboration.

CONS: Dropbox has no unlikable stuff for me. It is very easy to use especially for my job. It doesn’t make things difficult because of its simple features too.

PROS: It lets me conveniently work while updating files directly to my cloud-based account. Dropbox also helps my desktop breathe out more space by simply uploading my files to the cloud.

CONS: I am not satisfied with the Dropbox paper. I hope it can handle live collaboration similar to other famous cloud storage solutions.

PROS: It has a very cool and smooth interface with stellar features for sorting out files. Use it with a reliable internet connection and you’d get decent upload speed too. Moreover, it boasts a dependable smart syncing capacity that is useful for real-time uploading and updating to the cloud storage.

CONS: Dropbox has a very small space for the free version which is only 2 GB. It becomes very sluggish or even freezes when used with a poor internet connection. Thing is, I don’t worry about such uploading problems when using other cloud storage platforms.

PROS: Everything is in the place where it is supposed to be. From simplicity to the safety of your files, you get all that when you use the Dropbox tool. It helps to organize your file as they are a created in your computer. You can synchronize all your files from your computer into your Dropbox which leaves them secure. Even a beginner will find this product easy to use as the interface is simple. It acts as a backup tool which assures that all your files stored offline are backed up into Dropbox. You can store both your business and personal files for safe keeping.

CONS: There are few issues that Dropbox comes with and I can only think of one which was the most disappointing. When it comes to downloading large files, it may give you a headache. For our business operations, we receive files including photos in bulk and large files. To download those files, you have to select them in a batch and download them altogether. This saves the time and space which allows you to work faster. However, for the case of large files, you have to download one at a time and thus frustrating to some levels as it takes a lot of time to complete downloading many large files from Dropbox.

PROS: Dropbox free version conveniently offers a decent amount of space that I use for sending small files to clients. Anybody can access contents depending on file settings, then I receive smart notifications when somebody puts any file in a shared folder. Its interface is very smooth and simple, as well as it doesn’t have any unnecessary stuff.

CONS: Dropbox is a very cool platform. I cannot point to any problem with this simple cloud storage solution.

PROS: It is a good tool when you want to save your files remotely. This is because you can access them regardless of where you are. In the case your computer breaks down or it won’t work, you can use another computer or PC to access your files as they are saved in the cloud. It works fine on my part when it comes to managing files. I can track all my files in the Dropbox in terms of the changes made on them. This helps me to be better organized at how I manage those files. Since I work in a school, I save all my files and presentations in there. When I change schools or change the email of the school, I still get to retain my account which makes this product very flexible to use.

CONS: It is limited when you want to use more space. It would be better if the storage capacity of the free version was increased. Also, since I use Dropbox in education, most professionals in the same field prefer using Google Drive in managing their documents and files. With the latter, when you change the email of the school, you lose the account unlike in Dropbox. With such preference from other educators, I am not able to share with them my files in Dropbox as I would like which is a downside. As a result, I am not able to use it often as I should and it would be better if Dropbox was more promoted in education as Google Drive is.

PROS: This is great because it lets me easily access all my files whenever I need to do so. It keeps a copy of my files offline as well, so I can easily check them when the net connection isn’t available. It also lets me sync all files into different devices such as my desktop, laptop, and mobile. This helps me save cash when I’m abroad because I don’t need to pay for data expenses for checking online files.

CONS: The number of devices you can sync has become limited after a major update. The amount of storage space has acquired more restrictions too. You need to pay for a premium when it is necessary to use a bigger space and sync more devices. The free version is satisfactory, however, especially if it is already enough for your purposes.

PROS: Dropbox is very easy to use, and it lets me conveniently sort photos into folders with different names. It also runs smoothly even if I change OS, which is something that other options cannot do. And Dropbox stores all my files in a secure environment that I can conveniently open anywhere. Dropbox is certainly perfect for my needs!

CONS: The free version of Dropbox comes with a very small storage space which is not enough for all my files. Also, it doesn’t offer one-time payment deals. This is a problem when I fail to pay at a certain moment because it means losing precious files and features in my account. These are the only issues I have noticed, and I hope Dropbox would solve them soon.

PROS: Dropbox is a wonderful solution for storing files to the cloud that is highly accessible from anywhere. It comes with a free account version where you can instantly upload your first file too. The cloud storage is highly secured, and it processes files faster than other solutions. Sharing stored files is extremely convenient as well.

CONS: This is not a perfect choice for business purposes. First, it doesn’t offer reliable encryption for the clients, and it doesn’t have any internal searching feature too.

PROS: Collaborating is easier with the use of Dropbox because it lets me set accessibility to each file and folders; then, I can easily view if somebody works on certain files. It also lets me give access to people from outside our company. This is especially helpful when I need to provide access to certain contractors who do not have access to our account, or if they do not own a company email account. It is easier to do changes with any file as well since Dropbox supports convenient saving, opening, and editing of documents. Lastly, Dropbox offers the right amount of storage space that suits the file types we need to handle.

CONS: Dropbox is a great platform, but it comes with some issues too. There are moments when real-time updating becomes sluggish, which makes it harder to view edits and changes. There are moments when access for certain individual accounts suddenly disappears when I move or arrange files too.

PROS: Dropbox integrates with my MAC computer so well that its contents also shows on the search window. Its accessibility is fantastic since I can use it on any device, and it lets me easily drag and drop files from the Favorites panel. Compressing such files is not needed as well.

CONS: This cloud-based platform is surely wonderful. I haven’t found anything I dislike about Dropbox.

PROS: It is flexible from the start as you can sync it with all you devices such that all files will be backed up to the system. It forms a good backup tool for all of your files. With its simple features, a beginner can get up and running with this tool without the need to train him or her on how to use it. It helps to share projects with other users on an easy to use platform and thus attain my objective. You can easily find your way around creating folders and haring them with other people on the same platform. On top of that, it is mobile compatible which adds to how you can utilize it in accessing and sharing your folders.

CONS: It has very little to dislike as it has a lot to offer in terms of storage and sharing of files with other people. However, it is limited in term of space. As a new user, you have to watch the size of the files you share and store on Dropbox. You will need to spend extra if you want an extra space over and above the limited storage capacity. Despite this, the extra price is fine when you compare it with tools that offer similar functionality. All in all, it has an overall benefit that allows you to function well in terms of managing your files. You can back them up to a secure platform which can be accessed from anywhere.

PROS: It is easy to use and the application for my android device is lightweight and completely fulfills its work.

CONS: The free account has very little storage space, compared to other services that offer the same (Google Drive, Mega, Medaifire, Amazon Drive, etc.) and in order to have the space I need I have to purchase a paid account, whose Plans are somewhat high and it gives me too much space, which I don't use at all in the end. Also sharing a file link is complicated. The truth is that Dropbox was the first cloud storage system I used and I thought it would improve over time, but the improvements are small compared to its competitors.

PROS: It is an effective tool when it comes to managing issues or hosting our customers’ databases. We are able to automate most of the tasks that we could have done manually. For example, instead of trying to access the desktop of our customers so that we can download their databases, we are able to send them a link where they will be able to carry out the action so that their databases can be uploaded onto that link for us to access it. On the same case, once we are done, we can email then a link to return the databases in a secure manner. All this saves the time and thus reliable.

CONS: Although it does all the good work of sharing databases and folders on the go, it is limited in some of the ways. For example, it is not possible to manage multiple Dropbox accounts from a single desktop. It only allows you to manage one at a time which can be limiting when you have personal files to manage outside your business files. Also, it is not possible to share a file with another person as it only allows you to share a folder. It would be better if it was possible to unshared or share a file the same way you share or unshared a folder.

PROS: It provides a great platform and storage space where you can store your files. I am able to store and download my files whenever I need to. When it comes to the photo gallery I can sync photos from my device into the Dropbox automatically which secures them. On top of that, I can easily retrieve them on my computer or PC from the Dropbox. This not only saves the time but also the effort of looking for your photos. The upload and download process of the files is fast and efficient in a way that is save a lot of time to get you photos on your PC or when you want to share them.

CONS: It is limited in terms of functionality. It tends to lean more towards storage of files rather than other features. Since ci deal with projects every now and then, I would like to see a tool that offers project management features and other advanced functionalities that Dropbox does not have. It can be hectic when you want to manage or organize your files in a specific way. For example by color as this tool does not provide for such customization. In short, the tool does not offer full service solution and thus you are limited to how you can make the best use of it depending on what you are looking for.

PROS: It has allowed me to manage and access my files on the go. Since I am ever on the road, I can use my mobile device to access my files on Dropbox. It is simple as everything is laid out in the open. All my business and personal files are backed up in Dropbox which makes it easy to retrieve them whenever a need arises. I can even check the files that have been shared with me and make changes where necessary. As for my computer desktop, I can access it through Dropbox from any computer around the world, locate my files and access them remotely.

CONS: It can be hectic when you are dealing with large files. As a user with a Dropbox account, the storage is limited for the free version. You have to pay an extra amount to save and store large files. Although this is fair, if I share a large file with someone who is using the free version, they will not be able to view it let alone download the file. This can be frustrating as in most cases, they do not need to download the file but rather only view it. To resolve this, I have to settle for giving the recipient my account credentials so that they can login and view the file from my Dropbox which is frustrating.

PROS: Among its advantages: 1) it can be accessed from any device and at any time, provided there is an internet connection, 2) it saves space in the hard disk, 3) use of the cloud, so you can share any document, 4) have applications for PCs, Mobiles and Tablets, 5) Create documents between collaborators in real time, 6) share files with anyone no need to be added to the mail

CONS: Among the disadvantages: 1) free storage is limited, 2) the files are on a server that we do not know or control, 3) there is no internet, there is no possibility to see the documents, 4) when sharing files you should not work in it at the same time, because it creates conflict and the file is duplicated

PROS: Dropbox is easy to use and an ok solution for individuals wanting to share files with other individuals - but NOT an acceptable business solution.

CONS: Having a business account and paying more than $600 annually I would like access to a human being via the phone. I had to fire an employee and needed to speak to someone to understand how to see the employee's activity in drop box and ensure the employee no longer had access to my business files. I was not able to get anyone to speak with me.

PROS: When it comes to sharing files to multiple people who need them, Dropbox works the best on my part. I can just sign in to it and share those files with anyone who needs them. It makes it easy for one to locate the file that you need to download or share with people and then carry out the action that is required. During the set up process, everything was fast and clear. I was able to set up my profile within a few minutes and save files on the platform. It is also simple and fast to download those files making it easy to share them with the people you want.

CONS: It can prove to be a nuisance when you are downloading very large files. They take long to complete the download process which can delay the sharing process. Also, if you have not yet created a profile for your Dropbox account, logging in can be a bit tricky. Luckily, the set up process takes a few minutes to complete and thus there is no reason of not having a profile on the same. As for the large files, although they will take long to download, they will download in the end and thus your ability to share them with whoever you want.

PROS: It is very easy to use and you do not need any formal training to find your way around the features in store. Even a beginner can get up to speed with how this product works. With more than 5 years of using Dropbox for my files storage problem, I can say that is has been quite a ride. The interface is not only simple but also attractive to the eye. You do not have to do much when it comes to synchronizing your file from the computer. It works like clockwork. Also, you can change a document or file on your desktop and sync it on the Dropbox. In a case where you had previously stored the old file on your Dropbox and you want to upload the updated one, the updated file will take the place of the old file without duplicating it.

CONS: Although I have never had any issues with this tool, there is potential threat to someone who deals with large files. The storage feature is limited in a way that if you want more space above the limit, you have to pay for the service. In all my encounters with this product, I have not had any need for more space as I store light files on the platform. However, if you are looking to handle large size files, you have to spend more on the same in terms of cash. Other than this, I do not see anything wrong or I dislike about tis tool.
