Cloud storage and file collaboration for individuals and teams
Dropbox is a cloud storage and file collaboration platform that keeps files synced, backed up, and accessible across every device. Its long-standing strength is dependable sync — changes made anywhere appear everywhere — along with smart sync to save local disk space, offline access, and fast, granular file recovery and version history. For teams, pooled storage, shared folders, and admin controls make it a central place for company files.
Beyond storage, Dropbox has grown into a workflow hub. Secure sharing with passwords, expirations, and permissions controls who sees what; file requests collect documents from outsiders into one folder; and features like Dropbox Paper (collaborative docs), Dropbox Sign (e-signatures), Dropbox Replay (video review), and Capture (screen recording) reduce the need for separate tools. Dropbox Dash adds AI-powered universal search across connected apps, helping people find content wherever it lives.
Dropbox serves individuals, freelancers, and businesses of all sizes, with security, compliance, and admin governance for teams. Pricing spans individual Plus and Professional plans and business Standard and Advanced tiers (billed per user, minimum three users, with pooled storage), plus Enterprise. It competes with Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Box, and Egnyte, differentiating on sync reliability, cross-platform simplicity, and its collaboration add-ons.
