Advantages
- Limited and unlimited storage space depending on plan
- Reliability. Dropbox was always available when we accessed the service. The stability of the service was found to be the best we used to date. Synchronizing uploaded files
- Top encryption software to protect all files
- Mobile accessibility
- Backup space available for a price
Disadvantages
- Collaboration. One con found during our Dropbox review was the inability to collaborate on files. The only files that could be synchronized were the files we had uploaded. The files on our computer could not be synchronized with shared users unless we uploaded them first.
- File Location. At times we found it hard to find the location of certain files. No specific tabs were available and we had to initially select different tabs to find some older file versions or deleted copies.
Possible enhancements
Customisability - Design how your drop box looks like and organised folders the way users wanted it to look like.
It should give users the tips and tricks on how they can make their drop box more efficient.
Fitness for purpose
Dropbox meets its purpose to save documents and users to gain more gigabytes if they need more and it stores almost anything.
“Files saved or dropped in the drop box are automatically synchronized across all systems connected to the same account”
