Allison B
Litigation Paralegal
5.0

Allison B.: Hi, my name is Allison. I am a litigation paralegal, and on a scale of one to five, I give Dropbox a five. Currently, we use Dropbox to actually communicate with other attorneys, courts. We store our files there, and it's very, very time management, and it's great so that we can literally assign clients their Dropbox. They can go in and they can insert pictures or whatever they need to put in those spots also. So we basically use it as a tool for our case management. What I like most is that I can use it here at the office or if I'm at home. Let's say I'm on vacation, I'm never without it. I'm always able to access it and get the information. It's not like just, okay, if you save something on your desktop or on your normal computer, you go out of town, client call, you have no access, you have to call into the office. But with Dropbox, you always have that information, so I like the flexibility. Well our firm is pretty large. We have about anywhere from 15 to 20. We do way over $1 million in revenue a year, so I haven't had a problem where anything gets stuck, anything get lost, or I get to a place or go somewhere where I'm not able to access Dropbox. So right now I'm fine with it.

Neal G
Yoga Teacher, Web Developer
5.0

Neal: Hi, my name's Neal. I'm a website developer and a yoga teacher, and I use Nimbus Web regularly. And I give it a five star review. And for more information, click below. Before Nimbus, I was using a little Word app or Google Sheets or Google Docs to write notes about, for myself to remember. Sometimes I'd use a notepad on my phone or on my computer. And there was all these disparate notes all over the place, and it was hard to bring them all together. I also used Microsoft to do lists, but the features weren't really useful. So now that I've got Nimbus Web, I have all these features in a design that I really love, and it's becoming much more useful for me. Why I choose Nimbus Web and why I continue to choose Nimbus Web is because the design. I love the UI designer of the app. It makes it really simple for me to find the tasks that I want, to find the notes that I want, and to add those tasks. And I can do that either on my laptop, and I can do that really easily on my phone. So it's bringing all those things together and making it really useful for me to continue to do my work, and to keep on track with the tasks that I've got to keep on track of. To get started with Nimbus Web, it was the easiest of all the apps I probably ever have used. It was really clear that onboarding was simple, and it was very intuitive to use. And it has been, and that's one of the reasons why I really love it. I've tried other apps and other task managing apps, and they were just really complicated. And because of that reason, I didn't really get into it. Whereas with Nimbus Web, the design is really well thought out, and I actually really love using it. If you are considering Nimbus Web as an app that you might use, I highly recommend that you give it a go. I don't think you'll be disappointed in any way. It's simple, it's intuitive, but it's got lots of great features. The screen capture feature is really useful. The task features are really useful. The documents are already beautifully designed. Yeah, I highly, highly recommend it. I wouldn't do without it.
