There was a time when we needed Microsoft Word to write long essay like papers but times have involved since then and Dropbox paper can be an extensive writing tool or just a simple way to share notes Cons There isn't an easy way to learn about the extensive features, I'm sure there's a lot of cool things I could do within DBox Paper but I have no idea how to learn them Review Source JS Jake S. President / IT Director Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Stand Out Software for Quick Collaboration and Note Taking" September 23, 2019 5.0 So far it has been a great tool for keeping track of Client specific documentation and for keeping notes for all of our meetings both internally and with clients. Pros Paper provides quick access to tools within every document which allow for teams to quickly brainstorm ideas, track changes, take notes and comment on each others ideas. Not a ground breaking product but has inbuilt simplicity that is tough to compare to. Cons When the software was newer you could not delete documents however this has since been resolved and now only the user who created the document can delete it. Admins still cannot delete documents created by users. Review Source PM Philip M. Consultant Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Dropbox Paper - A Useful and Inexpensive Collaborative / Task Management Tool" January 29, 2022 4.0 In summary, Dropbox Paper is an excellent collaborative tool that avoids overwhelm so everyone can readily share ideas when working on text and visuals without having to wade through too much detail and excessive functionality. Pros I liked the way my collaborators could work on a document independently and the immediacy of seeing each other's contributions. We do a lot of graphical work, so the ability to include images and the integration with apps for artistic work (e.g. Invision App) is essential for our purposes. Cons The feature where you could comment on a specific point in the image was a bit hidden. My colleagues just tended to leave a comment near the image, without noticing that feature until I discovered it late in the day and showed them how to use it. Including Spotify songs proved difficult and I am still not sure how I managed to include Huey Lewis track instead of the intended song! Reason for choosing Dropbox Paper The immediacy of Dropbox Paper won us over.

Collaboration is easy with this awesome app. I can add users or attendees and mention them. I can also use them for notes and brainstorming ideas. I also love the fact that I can choose a template to work with. It helped me to save time. Cons It is not as advanced as other collaboration tools. But for me, it works really well and I love its simplicity. Review Source EA Ellie A. Student Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Product Ever" January 28, 2020 5.0 Pros Dropbox is the best way to access documents from anywhere and share with others regardless of what type of document you are saving. You don't have to just use Microsoft Word or just use PDF's, you can save and share anything. Cons No problems- love Dropbox with all my heart. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Saving documents Biotechnology Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Get documents on the go" September 16, 2019 3.0 Pros I liked that you can download dropbox to your computer/phone and use it as another folder, there's no need to remember to upload the files to their page, it will automatically do it for you. Cons Altough you can pay for aditional space 2GB for the free package is way too low. Review Source AA Andrey A. Supply Planner Medical Devices Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent online share app" February 8, 2020 5.0 My experience with Dropbox has been pretty good no complaints besides the fact that the free version might need a bit more space Pros Dropbox was one of the primary founders of mass storage on the cloud. During my university career, it was one of the most useful and innovate tool I basically used it in every course as a container where you were able to share content with your colleges, nowadays I think still is a great tool that can help to manage a lot of information regardless the finally. Cons If you like the free version and maintain many GBs on the cloud, you may need to move to the business version for more space. Review Source IG Ina G. Administrator Insurance Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "No need to worry anymore that you will lose your files" October 16, 2019 5.0 It is a software that I kind of started to use automatically. It is just a part of my must-have softwares :). Pros I like the most that it saves the files automatically. Anything can happen and information is ...priceless. Having it backed up is great, especially if it is done automatically. I also like the option that you can go into your Dropbox account, take a photo (you go on your phone) of your notes and save it and you can access it immediately on any device. Cons Didn't find any cons - I mean you do need an internet connection, but this is normal for something that works like this. Review Source Greg P. Concession Stand Attendant Writing and Editing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great for Transfers" July 25, 2019 4.0 Pros I use Dropbox all the time to submit resumes and references. It's easy to use and gives me my own dedicated space in my computer for it. Cons When the internet is down, this product does not work. Also, the speed of syncing depends a lot on internet speed.

Piacciono molto la possibilità di lasciare commenti ed evidenziare elementi nei documenti creati per i vari task, il che rende rapida l'analisi delle cose da fare e gli appunti dei vari membri. Cons Migliorabile la formattazione del testo. Migliorabili anche le tabelle dati. Sono personali punti di vista, overall ottimo strumento. Review Source DC David C.

We can work together in real time, no matter where we're actually sitting. The highlight is the versatility, use it for anything from tasks to schedules to whiteboards. Cons The mobile app could use some sprucing up. Otherwise, no complaints. Switched from [Zoho Notebook](https://www.capterra.com/p/174696/Zoho-Notebook/)[Google Calendar](https://www.capterra.com/p/213340/Google-Calendar/) Dropbox paper was something new and intriguing.

Freelance Consumer Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Aesthetically Pleasing Design" November 6, 2019 4.0 Dropbox paper is super easy to learn to navigate and use. With all of the choices available to you, you can make some pretty aesthetically-pleasing documents! If the people you'll be sharing with appreciate that sort of thing, I highly recommend giving it a try. Pros One of the greatest things about Dropbox Paper is that it gives you the freedom to design your documents precisely the way you want. As a result, you can make some very stunning documents! Cons Since a lot of the people I was sharing the documents with preferred how easy it was to use Google Docs instead, I didn't end up using it as frequently as I would have preferred. Switched from [SmartDocs](https://www.capterra.com/p/143966/SmartDocs-for-Microsoft-Word/) I thought it would be easier to share and I really enjoyed the level of customization possible.

Product Management Consultant Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Web based docs alternative, but not ready for mass collaboration" December 26, 2022 4.0 Pros The idea of having yet another, private docs alternative. The UI is invisible (in a good way). Cons The paper docs can't be opened from the client, but have to open a new web tab beats the purpose of "synching" documents. Review Source Michael C. UI/UX Designer Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Similar to Google docs" July 19, 2019 4.0 Pros The collaboration capabilities are better here than through Google. Dropbox Paper makes it easier to collaborate by showing the user where each person has edited and added content. Cons It is a little confusing when it comes to adding new documents and renaming them. Whenever I thought I renamed a document or a link, the changes would not save. It’s a little confusing, and it’s something they can definitely improve on to make more clear to users.
