Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My company uses Dropbox on a daily basis for storing all of our files including graphics, photos, videos, and more. We used to run out of storage space on our external company drive so much. But after switching to Dropbox we do not have issues with storage anymore. I appreciate that you can choose what to actually have downloaded onto the space as needed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

It’s very easy to create a shareable link to give to clients.
The organization within Dropbox is very easy to follow.
The security is top-notch. Whenever I log in again, Dropbox always makes sure to check that it’s really me.

Cons

Differentiating between what is shared and what is not.
Having multiple accounts to log into.
I don’t love that I only have a certain amount of folders downloaded but each time a new one is made by my company, it is automagically added.

Return on Investment

Love that we usually have more storage than we used to.
It’s great to share a link with clients.
Not everyone needs an account or sign in to access a file right away if I share it with them.
