Overall Satisfaction with Dropbox

We use Dropbox literally all day, everyday. It houses all of our documents. It is basically our life line. We work in construction and have people in two different offices plus on every job and Dropbox makes it so easy to access all of our files anywhere we are. It's easy to update, easy to access, easy to change anything. It's super user friendly also.

Pros

  • Organizes
  • Syncs
  • Holds a lot of files

Cons

  • I've heard the mobile version maybe isn't as user friendly as the app but I do not use the mobile so I'm not sure
  • Maybe allowing different plans would reach more people as well
  • 100% ease of use
  • 100% reliable. Can use anywhere and on any device.
Dropbox seems to work just better overall than the other products out there plus it is what I am used to. Our personal plan for my business is also cheaper than the plans I would quoted for Google Drive and others. It makes organizing everything a breeze and you can find anything with just a click and search.

Do you think Dropbox delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Dropbox's feature set?

Yes

Did Dropbox live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Dropbox go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Dropbox again?

Yes

I can't really describe any situations where it is not suited since I really don't know what I would do without Dropbox. When I say I use it everyday, I mean literally every single day. If anything happened to my Dropbox I would literally cry because it is our company's lifeline. Our entire world is housed on our Dropbox and everyone in my company knows how to use it so it makes it super easy and that is saying a lot since I work with a lot of older men who are in construction and usually aren't the most tech-savvy.

Evaluating Dropbox and Competitors

Yes - My company used to use Google Drive but we made the switch to Dropbox. They had more plans available and the prices were better as well. Our sister company still uses Google Drive and I still have access to that as well and even with the little amount I use Google Drive, I still have weird technically issues with it. Someone always seems to have trouble with files not being synced, not everyone is able to view all files, etc...
  • Ease of Use
Price honestly. We are a smaller business so if we can find a bang for our buck, we definitely will take it! It was just an added bonus that Dropbox worked so well. It's super important that our field guys can use it too since they need access to some of our job cost reports, material trackers, etc... and a lot of them aren't the best with computers so the fact that they can use Dropbox is a huge win!

Dropbox Training

  • Online Training
I did not personally take any training for Dropbox so I am self taught but I know when our Vice President selected Dropbox, he personally did do some training modules on it and I'm assuming it was very easy and simple to understand since he now acts like he is a pro at it!
