ultra-high efficiency cloud

most important data I put on dropbox, security guaranteed, even remotely. Great company.

PROS

the seriousness of the company, has been in business for many years and has adopted a policy of quality data consevation. The "bits" are not all the same in terms of how they are stored in the various competing clouds; the dropbox systems (although they do not publicize these technical aspects too much) are the top. So if you care about your data you are in the right place.

CONS

the cost is not the cheapest and the free level is smaller than the competition. But they are correct commecial policies! You can't keep data safe with just any free cloud because free tiers of any online service (not just cloud, even email services for example) are not guaranteed. If you want a service you have to pay for it! Their cloud is the most secure so they are right not to be the cheapest, plus the free tier should be used as a test and not perpetual security of your data (with any cloud)

Dropbox BackUp is a No for Me

Poor, I would say. Didn't really love using it, good thing we decided to switch. Personally, I did not find it to be user-friendly as the other software we're currently using, sorry.

PROS

Nothing, we tried using it for more than a year but it just didn't work for us, sorry.

CONS

Everything, it's not just the same as GDrive, plus it's too expensive. My company decided to switch because it was costing us a lot to be honest.

Easy secure cloud storage

Dropbox provides a free backup service from the desktop app or via a web browser. I've found it very helpful as a passive background tool to keep my files backed-up.

PROS

The thing I like most about Dropbox is the way it integrates with so many other online services.

CONS

The thing I like least about Dropbox is the regular upsell for a subscription service.

Reason for choosing Dropbox Backup

I use Dropbox in addition to these other services.

Dropbox Backup

PROS

With features of automatic backup of specified team files and folder with secured encryption, what I like most about dropbox backup is it's exceptional customer support. Anytime we face a issue and we can talk to their support team within minutes. No chats, no tickets , no drama unlike other providers- Direct one to one talk with representative.

CONS

Although it has very nice UI, sometimes it's navigation is bit difficult for managing team. Only few trained people can set it up and use it regularly for entire team.

A valable hub to share documents with peers

I think it has a limited storage for non-paid user and it better to upgrade the capability for security.

PROS

The ideal feature is to allow me to share my file with other users who even dont have account for dropbox.

CONS

The feature of security is not 2 layers as other clouds that sometimes need to be cautious.

Reasons for switching to Dropbox Backup

It's quite complicated.

My overall experience with Dropbox has been very good.

PROS

It is reliable. It stores our documents, including prior versions, and just "works."

CONS

The search functionality could be greatly improved, but that is probably my only complaint.

Una buena herramienta para guardar archivos y accederlos fácilmente

Dropbox nos ha ayudado muchísimo a trabajar online, pues todo el equipo en diferentes partes del mundo tiene acceso remoto a los archivos y modificarlos, a su vez cada vez que terminan una tarea puede ver al momento que ha cargado el archivo y debidamente guardado por la seguridad en la nube si pasa cualquier cosa.

PROS

Dropbox está un poco por encima de herramientas similares, porque puedes usar el almacenamiento de la nube como una extensión de tu computadora, es como si tienes un disco duro conectado pero con la ventaja que si por alguna razón se te daña tienes todo respaldado en la nube fácilmente. También te permite de acceder dependiendo del plan otros usuarios y modificar archivos y actualizarlos al instante

CONS

Quizá aumentar un poco el tamaño de personas que puedan acceder y asignar roles de administrador o solo lectura sería genial para poder tener un equipo de trabajo más grande trabajando siempre en la nube.

A data backup service

Dropbox is a means of storing files that can be transferred if desired by synchronizing or doing it manually.

PROS

What I like about Dropbox is that you can manually download files from your Dropbox account to another external location or another online storage service.

CONS

What I don't like is the security on Dropbox; I don't find it convincing enough compared to other storage services like iCloud, for example.

Easy to use, the first but not the best

It worked but we needed to put all our files into a single directory. Probably we lost some information on how to install or setup.

PROS

Is probably one of the easier solutions to implement. Plug n Play, but you cannot change a lot of things. Simply works without supervision

CONS

Less options compared with our final solution (Synology) Easy to backup the main directory, but if you have a more diverse file system, is not so easy to implement

Good

PROS

There's an equal chance of Dropbox Backup working properly and your in-laws showing up at the absolute worst and most inappropriate time. If that didn't translate correctly- Dropbox Backup= Great, Reliable.

CONS

Dropbox Backup works with Dropbox and Dropbox Business only. I didn't care very much for Dropbox and no longer needed Dropbox Backup. It'd be great to see this company release a similar software that can be used elsewhere.

Good option to backup enormous information storage

It is easy and intuitive. The user experience is very friendly. It runs primarily on web so its always available. I don't have to worry if I have deleted some files.

PROS

I can hold all my desktop documents on cloud with highest security. Dropbox Backup has heaps of good features. Their private folder is the best.

CONS

There are a lot of options in market which provide similar solutions at a much cheaper price. Dropbox is on the pricier side.
