Here’s a Dropbox Review [From the Digital Marketing Pros at Greyphin]

 

Dropbox - you’ve heard of it, and, if you’ve used it, you may love it. It’s perhaps one of the most popular tools that people use to store their files on the internet. But what is it that people love so much about this tool? Are there things that users don’t like about it? We’re going to explore these questions in our Dropbox review, so buckle up. 

Okay - our review isn’t going to be that crazy. But if you’re considering using Dropbox as a resource for your marketing efforts, then this review may be worth reading.

What is Dropbox?

If you don’t know what Dropbox is - no worries, we’ll explain it for you right here, right now. Simply put, Dropbox is a file hosting service that allows users to upload a variety of files, such as photos, documents, and videos, to their accounts. This online tool offers cloud storage as well as the ability to share files with other Dropbox users. 

Pros of Using Dropbox

There are many benefits of using Dropbox, which include:

Staying Organized

Are you tired of having your computer desktop flooded with files from months worth of downloads? Is keeping track of files you send to your clients through email getting tedious? What if we told you there was an easier way? Dropbox makes file organization easy and convenient for its users. Once you sign up for an account, you can make multiple folders dedicated to whatever types of content you’d like. This makes it simple to keep your personal files and client files separated and easy to find.

Sharing Files

Long gone are the days of sending files through email attachments and hoping that you or your client don’t lose them in case you need to reference them again in the future. Dropbox makes secure file sharing convenient. In fact, all it takes to share a file is to generate a link and send it to whoever you’d like! The best part? You don’t have to worry about the size of the file you’re sending - this tool allows users to share files as big as they’d like (as long as it’s within the storage capacity of your account).

Syncing Files

Do you have a large amount of files on multiple devices? Good news - this tool allows users to easily sync files to their account across multiple devices and platforms. Simply  download the Dropbox app on your devices (Windows, Mac, mobile, etc) and upload your files with the push of a button. What’s really neat is that, once you have the app downloaded on each device, newly saved or updated files are synched in each place. 

Work as a Team

While users may choose to use Dropbox for their personal files, others may use it as a collaborative space with their work teams. Use this app as a way to create a centralized place for project files, meeting agendas, and more. Users may also choose to add integrations - such as for Slack and Zoom - that make file sharing even easier amongst team members.

Cons of Using Dropbox

Along with all the awesomeness that this tool has to offer, there are some drawbacks. These include:

Pricing

Holy options, Batman! When it comes to the pricing structure for this app, things get a little complicated. While it’s pretty cool that there are so many options available for pricing plans, it may be overwhelming for those who may not know exactly how much storage and what features they need right off the bat. Plus, depending on the size of your team and what your needs are, the plans can become pricey.

Organization is Key

Okay, hear us out on this one. As we mentioned earlier in our Dropbox review, this tool can be amazing for helping out with organization. The only problem is, though, it doesn’t organize things for you - you must do that on your own. And, if you’re not exactly the most organized person to begin with, this may be a challenge. But, once you get the hang of using this software, we promise you’re going to love it.
