Family sharing and personal backups have improved how I manage and access my files anywhere
I am not fond of their syncing. Their file syncing is very clunky, so I am not a real fan of the file syncing. I think Box does a much better job of the syncing of data onto desktops and laptops. When you try to sync the files in Dropbox, it actually puts a copy of the file on your laptop, so it sucks up all of your memory. Whereas with Box, I can sync files into my file explorer and it is still cloud-based. They have not saved the file physically onto my laptop. They save it in the cloud and it just does a temporary download and then it uploads again, but that file is not saved on my laptop. Whereas with Dropbox, anytime you want to sync on your laptop, it actually does save it. There is a way to set it up, but it takes a lot more work and effort and I have never been able to get it to work the way I want it to work. So I just do not sync my files with Dropbox on my laptop. That limits my ability to use Dropbox from my work laptop because my work laptop just does not have any memory at all on it. They give the bare minimum of memory and say that it should all be in the cloud anyway, so you do not need to have that much storage space. So I cannot even access Dropbox from my work laptop and have to use the browser version of Dropbox if I need to access my Dropbox from my work laptop. Within the company, it is a personal choice. Our company has not dictated what cloud service to use. As long as it has all the security measures that meet the standards of our IT department, anyone can use whatever cloud service they want. For example, our company is not allowed to use Google because Google is not a secure cloud service in the estimation of our IT department. So there are cloud services that we are not allowed to use, but from the five to seven different services that they give us to choose from, we all can find what meets our needs.

Data restoration is the most valuable feature.
If I access my documents from the mobile app, I am also able to share these documents with accounts in other apps such as email, WhatsApp, Dropbox, google drive, etc. What I'd like is to be able to share a document or folder with other Mozy accounts (users), with limits of either under the same admin domains or even with other domains.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Dropbox is an easy-to-use solution that has good stability."
"Dropbox is easy to use; I installed it on my laptop and I just copy and paste my files into a folder, I can use the Microsoft Office package like Microsoft Office, Excel, or PowerPoint, I can edit my files easily and all of my coworkers can check them at the same time, and it's a really good option for me."
"Dropbox is a very easy-to-use site that allows me to save files to the cloud for retrieval from almost any device (laptop, iPhone, iPad, etc...)."
"Since using Dropbox Business - Enterprise, it has been a really helpful tool because we have seen it becoming very seamless for sharing files with our clients and customers and our team members, thereby improving our collaboration."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its convenience, I can retrieve files online from various places. It has backup options in case something was to go wrong with my computer I can restore my files."
"A valuable feature is that it stores my files and photos, and I'm satisfied with this product."
"Dropbox is easy to use."
"The solution is reliable and user-friendly."
"The ability to kick start the service live on the users machine; I also like the graphical representations of data space."
"I've had good experience with the Mac backup client running silently and keeping files backed up."
"I was using Symantec Backup Exec, and we switched because Mozy is easier to use, and the cost is less."
"The data restoration feature is the most valuable because the end user requires minimum support to recover lost data."
 

Cons

"The interface could have bigger buttons."
"Dropbox could probably be improved around the integrated security, but those options are probably available. I don't have much of a view on improvements, based on the relatively few occasions that I use it."
"The product must provide users with the ability to edit and modify documents."
"I am not fond of their syncing. Their file syncing is very clunky, so I am not a real fan of the file syncing."
"It would be good if they could market themselves as a safe solution for corporates. Currently, most corporates don't see it as a safe area to share within."
"We are moving to Microsoft Teams. Instead of Dropbox, we will be using Microsoft Teams that has the advantage of saving the versions. It supports file versioning so that you can always go back to the previous version if you want to. If somebody has made a change in one of the files and you don't know what changes have been made, you can always go back to the previous version. This feature led us to migrate to Microsoft Teams. With Dropbox, there is no option for simultaneous work. This feature is there in Google Files. In Microsoft Teams, you can invite team members to collaborate. That is the reason why I prefer Microsoft Teams over Dropbox. It should also have more integration with other solutions."
"It's an expensive solution."
"The solution lacks sufficient storage capabilities."
"Automated client deployment was not straightforward and never worked for me."
"The selection of directories and files to back up can't be managed centrally, it has to be set on each user's computer."
"The sales support is too poor and there is no point of contact, local representatives are not in positions to assist or even provide a proposal."
"The support staff were directed to give support on specifics and to stick to the support plan; anything out of the ordinary would be a challenge."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is purchased on a subscription basis, and there are purchasing options. If you purchase annually there is a discount."
"I don't pay any licensing costs."
"We are using the unlicensed free version of Dropbox."
"We use a yearly license. The pricing is not a bad price. I'd rate it about a five out of ten, with ten being expensive and one being cheap."
"The pricing for non-corporations is expensive. They have raised their prices and have low storage capacity."
"Dropbox is one of the cheapest tools in the market."
"The solution is expensive."
"The subscription could be cheaper."
