Dropbox Businessのレビュー

利用価値ビジネスレベル

良いポイント:

クラウドとしてもファイルフォルダーが沢山作れて管理しやすい。データも様々なファイルを管理・共有が出来るから相手先にメールで共有する事も可能で、メールデータ量を気にしないで簡単にクラウドで共有することが安易に出来る。

改善してほしい点:

ファイルが多岐にわたって増やせるので、管理をしっかりしないとデータファイルが迷子になりやすい！？

クラウドサービスなので

良いポイント:

以前は社内にサーバーを立てて、VPNを接続しサーバーにログインしていました。それに伴いいろんなアプリケーションを閉じることになっていたので、ファイル１つ探すのにも時間をものすごく要しておりました。やはり、Dropboxに切り替えて、クラウドサービスなので、接続も早いですし、他のユーザーにリンク先を共有できるのでとても楽です。

改善してほしい点:

逆にクラウドサービスだからこそですが、大企業のセキュリティを気にしてる企業様には向いてないかもしれません。セキュリティ保護の観点で、インフラを強化するのは各々の社内の人間の役目になります。そこが懸念かな。

バックアップに関する必要な機能を揃っている

良いポイント:

勝手にバックアップしてくれるため、保管し忘れることがない。またいろんなアプリに対応しているため、アプリのデータバックアップにも役に立つ。

改善してほしい点:

ダウンロード、アップロード速度はOneDriveやGoogle Driveに劣っている。また大きいファイルをバックアップする際の安定性も前述他社製品より悪い。

セキュアなオンラインストレージ

良いポイント:

セキュリティがしっかりしているオンラインストレージサービス。権限の詳細設定ができ、社内のみならず社外とのやり取りでも安全に使える。

改善してほしい点:

できることに対して利用料金がちょっと高めに設定されている。

どかこらでもアクセスできて便利

良いポイント:

会社で作成したデータをpdfなどであれば外でスマホからでも確認することができる。

改善してほしい点:

データのサイズが大きいとネット回線など環境によっては同期に時間がかかる

Dropbox

良いポイント:

社内共有として利用してます。セキュリティもしっかりしていてとても使いやすいです。

改善してほしい点:

機能や使い方の内容を詳しく覚えないと、パソコンで普通に使っているコピー機能などうまく使えない時がありました。

クラウドストレージとしては2番手のソフト

製品を使ってみた感想： Googleドライブにはやはり全体の操作性などを含めてやや劣る印象。単純に保管や共有だけできればいいという組織向け。

良いポイント:

Windowsユーザーにとってはローカルと似たようなUIで操作しやすい。

改善してほしい点:

ワードやエクセルなどは一度ダウンロードしてからしか編集ができない。

トライアルで使用

製品を使ってみた感想： ファイル管理ソフトとして、トライアルで使用してみたが、仕事などでないと使用しない機能が多いため単に画像を整理する目的などで使用するならば割高になってしまう。機能面では欲しい機能は揃っていて申し分ない。

良いポイント:

ファイルの管理が簡単で、直感的に行える。単にファイル管理ではなくクラウドの保存なので、ストレージを気にせずに使える点。

改善してほしい点:

機能がかなり多く、何を使って良いか自分で調べてやらないと使いこなせない点。

クラウドサービスといえばコレ

良いポイント:

導入したばかりでも分かりやすく使いやすいと思います。ある程度知名度もありますしセキュリティにも力を入れてるように思います。

改善してほしい点:

ランニングコストがかかりますので使い続けるメリットがあるかが判断どころだと思います。

Dropbox Business for Small Teams

製品を使ってみた感想： Our team uses Dropbox Business every day and we organize it by our projects which makes finding documents and assets very efficient. We love the ability to instantly add a shared Dropbox folder from a client directly into our Dropbox dashboard in a matter of seconds. It's one of the most useful features. The history and version control is also really useful to ensure we're using the latest files.

良いポイント:

This cloud-based storage tool has been incredibly effective, especially now that our team is working remotely due to COVID-19. We are able to organize our documents very efficiently using the tools instead of having to use an internal server. It's game-changing to be able to access documents, photos, and videos from any computer without having to use a clunky VPN login.

改善してほしい点:

I wish the thumbnails were larger when previewing photos and sometimes when you hit the back button, it takes you to the home page instead of the last page of you breadcrumb trail but the ease of use makes it worthwhile, once you get used to it.

Great quality for a cloud storage software

製品を使ってみた感想： In our office, I use Dropbox Business to keep all of our documents in one location for our entire team. It's instrumental because we have records shared around the organization and files that are only used by my team. It's effortless to make a folder, upload it, and share it with others. It's also much more stable than other platforms when it comes to keeping track of sensitive data.

良いポイント:

I like that it is straightforward to build a folder and share it with multiple people at once. It's also convenient to have all this set up from my own Control Panel files on my phone, so I can simply drag and drop files from my stored folders and transfer them into a Dropbox database. My organization is now using Dropbox, and the business account provides us with enough storage to hold all of our documents in one safe location.

改善してほしい点:

It's not as complicated as Google Drive or any other online storage systems, but Dropbox Business doesn't have any of the same functionality, but it gets the job done. When there are so many people sharing stuff across channels, it becomes cluttered.

Great for Working in Groups

製品を使ってみた感想： My experience with Dropbox Business was great. We used it at work to easily share photos, videos, and files within our group & organize them by project.

良いポイント:

It is an easy way to share photos & files with others.

改善してほしい点:

There’s nothing about Dropbox Business that I didn’t like.

Still A Clunky Product After 5+ Years of Use

製品を使ってみた感想： Dropbox Business has, for the most part, been our media company's go-to file storage and sharing application since we began primarily working from home a little over a year ago. But after 5+ years of consistent use, I can't say I've noticed a significant improvement in the software's usability. We still seem to experience the same issues we did when we first began using the software. We've been on the lookout for a software to switch to for some time, and may just officially make the move to Frame.io some time in the near future.

良いポイント:

In terms of basic file sharing (documents, videos, or audio files), Dropbox Business gets the job done. There are some basic features available which allow you to customize the files you've shared (you can set files to be non-downloadable, password protect them, or even set the shared link to expire after a certain date). One of the features we've found the most useful as a media company is the ability to send out a File Request. This is a feature that allows you to create an upload link that can be shared out to as many people as you need. Once members of that group have uploaded files to your Dropbox using the link, the files will appear on your Dropbox, in a folder that you've preconfigured to be associated with that file request. Users cannot see what exists on your Dropbox on their side, but you're able to secure the files you need. While there are some helpful, advanced features, all in all I would say Dropbox Business will probably work just fine for your purposes if you aren't too concerned about having a bunch of fancy features.

改善してほしい点:

I seem to constantly run into strange issues when using Dropbox. For example, although you are able to see all of the files that you've recently deleted in the Trash, you are not able to search the Trash. You can only perform a search for files that are still technically "live" on your Dropbox account. So if you need a file you think you've deleted, you have to scroll through the Trash and search for it yourself. I would think that regardless of what exactly you or your company is using Dropbox for, a search bar feature for the Trash would be useful, and would save you a ton of time. Additionally, more often than not, the progress bar on the bottom of the browser might say a file has completed uploading, but the file won't display on the screen. A refresh seems to do the trick, but this is a longstanding issue we've run into, and contributes to my overall perception of Dropbox as a "clunky," outdated software.

For the project director, managing research projects is incredibly convenient and secure with it.

製品を使ってみた感想： In addition, it makes version control possible, which makes it possible to monitor modifications and access previous iterations of documents. This is a crucial feature for managing research-derived data.

良いポイント:

In addition to facilitating simple access, Dropbox Business offers ample cloud storage to manage all of the project's research data and documents. To promote teamwork, the tool enables real-time file editing and collaboration with shared folders. Via file encryption and two-factor authentication, the platform offers the highest level of security for confidential research data. To further improve productivity, Dropbox Business integrates with various platforms and tools.

改善してほしい点:

Limited functionality when offline, which may present a challenge in places with spotty internet service. Even with lots of storage, there might be restrictions depending on the subscription plan, which could mean making extra purchases.

Dropbox is Essential to our Business

製品を使ってみた感想： Overall we like Dropbox a LOT and use it every day. If I had the option I'd go back in time and have started using it earlier.

良いポイント:

Dropbox for business is one of the most essential business services we use. To be honest we used the free version for many years, then upgraded several times until we got to where we are now. We are willing to pay for the cloud storage because it secures our data off site and allows us to access it out of the office. That doesn't seem like a big deal today but it wasn't always as easy as it is now. We basically use it as a file cabinet and keep about half our active files in it and use it as an archive for all our old files. It's accessed every single day and at this point we couldn't live without it. I highly recommend Dropbox for Businesses.

改善してほしい点:

One of the main cons is that we are not able to have multiple people working on the same document at the same time like Google Drive. So we have pivoted and keep more of our PDF's and non living files in Dropbox.

Online File storage

製品を使ってみた感想： using it every day to store my design files makes it quick and easy and then I can access them from other locations if. i need to.

良いポイント:

ease of deployment and the fact you can lock individuals out of sections/ files with access rights

改善してほしい点:

cost per user is quite high, would like to see other package options for users and or storage cases - the tear storage is ok but does jump - a middle ground in both cost and storage would be good

Daily life with dropbox

製品を使ってみた感想： Overall it keeps our office organized and streamlined.

良いポイント:

The ability to see activity from other users as what is being added or created.

改善してほしい点:

Unfortunately, I can't create docs on Dropbox

Children's Book Complete!

製品を使ってみた感想： I was writing and illustrating a children's book, and my friend was helping me format it to be self-published. He had a Mac, i had a Windows computer, so Dropbox really helped us with this!

良いポイント:

Dropbox was great for writing a children's book

改善してほしい点:

Being not so tech-savvy, i could not figure out how to use this in the beginning

Easy use of Dropbox

良いポイント:

User Friendly, Sharing documents makes business easier for our team.

改善してほしい点:

The setup process was kinda slow for us. Due to other users not understanding how to access.

good product but needs improvement

製品を使ってみた感想： Still better than not having a shared server at all. Has a large amount of space offered so we don't have to worry about losing files. Licenses and teams are also easy to manage.

良いポイント:

The ability to access files anytime, anywhere, especially from a mobile device. Intuitive and always evolving to be better. It's also widely known so most people don't need much training on it.

改善してほしい点:

Lack of customer support - they just refer you to guides and FAQs. We also received no help in our initial setup and after having the software for a while, there are countless things we could have done better to share and organize our folders. Glitchy sometimes - on multiple occasions I had to completely uninstall and reinstall the desktop app to make it work Files are not collaborative enough. At this point, you'd imagine Dropbox would work like google sheets where you and someone else can edit the same document at the same time. But instead, you have to deal with conflicted duplicate files. Billing could be explained better. We have multiple entities in our business and need to split our bill regularly but dropbox doesn't make it easy to code specific users or licenses to specific entities under the overarching business account

Dropbox Allows Musicians to Share and Protect Files

製品を使ってみた感想： Dropbox solves sharing obstacles, as I can directly share songs and ideas immediately after I upload them. This makes working together possible even if we are not in the same room together. We can freely send ideas back and forth instantly and with ease. Dropbox offers a large amount of storage which is very useful when working with large media files. I know that my files are safe and will remain where I store them no matter what files I may lose on my personal computer. Dropbox has saved me from losing hours of work by safely storing my songs and music ideas.

良いポイント:

Dropbox is a web based service that gives you a free space with an option of additional storage for a reasonable monthly fee. As a musician, it is essential to protect and share your music. I am able to upload files onto my Dropbox storage and send direct access to anyone I choose from all over the globe. Media files are typically large, so there is a huge benefit to have the ability to purchase additional data at any time. I feel safe knowing that my files are protected in the Dropbox cloud, especially in the event of a computer or program crash.

改善してほしい点:

The Dropbox file compression will degrade the media quality to a noticeable extent when clicking a direct play link. The compression isnt as noticeable on downloaded media files.

Dropbox Has Been A Life Saver

製品を使ってみた感想： Dropbox has changed our office for the better! A little over a year ago, my boss came to me to start looking into cloud storage options. I did some research on storage space, price, security, etc... Dropbox was my top choice right away. In order to sell this migration opportunity to the rest of the office, I knew I had to make little to no changes to their daily routine, but also by proving it was worth the investment. I signed the office up for a free trial and imminently the team loved how easy the software is to use. Most members were comfortable to using the normal desktop file folders and with the capabilities of Dropbox, I was able to load the software right onto their device, only having to change which folder they needed to access. Dropbox has made it so convenient for the entire team to be able to work from wherever they please without causing any added stress. Dropbox was absolutely the best choice for our office!

良いポイント:

What I like most about Dropbox is that I can access files from anywhere at anytime. Before Dropbox, our staff could only access our files from within the the physical office, making it extremely hard to get any work done outside of the usual workday. Dropbox has allowed the ease of being able to work from home, especially during this pandemic. The only feature that I LOVE is the search option while using the browser version. This cuts down a project time immensely making it so easy to find the document I'm looking for with just a few key words.

改善してほしい点:

The one issue our office tends to run into is when the software creates a "conflicted-copy" when multiple user have made edits to the same document. We all access some large spreadsheets, and it is very frustrating when you go through and add various equations and update the grids, just to find out someone else has saved since you started making those changes. This is partly user error, of course, but the notifications are hard to pay attention to if you are so focused on the tasks you are trying to accomplish.

Dropbox is Secure and Affordable

製品を使ってみた感想： Dropbox does what it is designed to do - securely store documents. I wish it offered encrypted email and better sharing features for my clients who don't have dropbox.

良いポイント:

Dropbox makes it easy to understand how to use the software, sync specific folders to your computer, perform Admin duties, use Paper, etc.

改善してほしい点:

I believe Dropbox is secure. I've never had any issues, but Dropbox has a reputation of not being secure with several people I've worked with in the Accounting industry. I don't know where this reputation comes from, but it makes it difficult for me to share documents when my peers don't trust the software.

File sharing and storage made easy

製品を使ってみた感想： Dropbox gave us a lot of benefits that helped us with practical team collaboration. Especially when working with other field offices and their project teams. Operating from different time zones meant that live communications via email were quite ineffective. So the collaboration features and file sharing tools Dropbox offered us made our work a lot easier and more productive.

良いポイント:

With Dropbox’s real time sync and file sharing, we no longer relied on usb drives to share large files that wouldn’t easily attach as email attachments. This not only reduced the incidents of virus attacks and transmissions, it also allowed for proper management of access and better productivity. With great mobile access and sync across devices, that also meant that there was very little productivity lost from not being in the office or having your primary computer with you at all times.

改善してほしい点:

Storage size of 2 GB on the free account is quite limited. While we recommend Dropbox for most of the community cooperatives we work with, most of them cannot afford the paid subscriptions that offer sufficient storage .

Dropbox business a perfect solution for cloud based storage

製品を使ってみた感想： The dropbox business is valuable tool if you are looking to enhance your internal capability of storing data on a third-party cloud. It has helped to operate data from outside source without worrying about data lose due to system collapse. The features are overwhelming and help users in seperate ways. The product stands out among other for delivering superior experience in data management.

良いポイント:

The security features are the best features for Dropbox business. You can make sure the file is well encrypted and can be shared through a secured channel like a link with others. The drag and drop function is effective when transferring large volume of documents to the cloud. Very easily accessible through remote locations and team collaboration features are easy to use. Version control by saving older version of file is a effective feature.

改善してほしい点:

Sync and integration issues require most attention from the customer support team. Syncing with local directory is always a problem as it becomes challenging to auto upload files to the system. Sharing file outside of the organization is troublesome as excess control becomes a big issue. Document searching is also another issue which is hard to address.
