### "Compatible with Multiple Features"

January 28, 2020

Really enjoy using this for collaborating. Saves instantly and allows your team to work in one place.

Pros

Easy all-in-one organizer for projects or meetings. Great for collaborating with those with different email addresses.

Cons

It takes some getting used to the different features such as setting up checkboxes and embedding links but with practice you will be able to use all the features with ease.

### "Not great, barely usable"

June 3, 2020

2.0

When Dropbox a pioneer in cloud saving personal files brings up a cloud based office application you have high expectations. But in this case it falls flat. This is the poor man's version of Google Docs or Microsoft 365 except that both have a free version. There is no big upside except from the fact that it is well integrated into Dropbox. The formatting sucks, the interface is bare bones and 20 years old (!) and all of this is put together in a light and flaky web interface. Pretty poor job !!

Pros

Well integrated with Dropbox Extensive support for rich media Minimal user interface Freeware & cloud based Cross platform compatible

Cons

No fixed formatting bar Needs a lot of learning Features and options are minimal = 2 decades old

### "複数人での編集が便利"

December 16, 2022

4.0

特に文字というよりもVisual、視覚やイメージでの情報共有に長けています。

Pros

複数人でのファイル編集が可能のほか、カレンダーとドキュメントの連携機能は使いやすいです。Google Map等の埋め込みもドラッグ・アンド・ドロップで操作性に長けています。Dropboxのファイルとの互換性も良いです。

Cons

Dropbox製品全体的に当てはまるのですが、カスタマーの対応はそれほど迅速ではありません。対応自体は丁寧です。

### "Review by Gerard"

November 16, 2022

4.0

Pros

The online collaboration in the projects with my teammates is the most important feature of this SW. Also, the remote access from everywhere.

Cons

What I like least is the no integration with other softwares like Google Docs.

### "Great Product!"

December 3, 2019

5.0

Great but a little frustrating when it has technical issues. A little disappointed especially its such a big company.

Pros

1) Free 2) Simple and intuitive interface 3) Love the support for rich text format. Copy and pasting is the most seamless among those that I have used 4) Very neat and "cant go wrong" 5) Customer support is prompt

Cons

Timeline is clunky in my own opinion. There is a bug that has not been solved. I can't share paper to others because the image won't show up. Technical support takes ages. Customer support is good (front facing)

Reason for choosing Dropbox Paper

I have yet to try the other product but Paper's simplicity won me over.

### "Useful and Advanced Platform for Meeting Agendas"

January 1, 2021

5.0

Always been so great, the current platform is already great. Hopefully more features will be added in it.

Pros

The simplicity is a plus in this platform, we don't need to worry about the interface. It's so user friendly interface. I like the way they make everything simple in the platform. Like custom templates for us when we wanted a lite doc for the meeting. It's never been so advanced and simple like this.

Cons

Lack of spell check feature and limited underlined, bold, or even Italic text in it.

### "Dropbox Paper Makes collaborationg amazing"

April 28, 2020

4.0

Dropbox Paper is a great tool that makes working on the go terrific.

Pros

Dropbox Paper takes what we are already working on and turns our project into a mass creative working environment.

Cons

Sometimes the uploads get stuck in a cue type state. Which makes it difficult to work at times. Then we have to upload again and it shows that it is there twice.

### "Good Tools For Organizing Files"

February 19, 2023

4.0

Pros

The software is easy to setup and can have multiple users to the same team which makes sharing and editing the files very easy within the team. Users can collaborate and also add to the projects.

Cons

If there was an option to include default templates editing files would have been great.

### "Quickly Collaborate and Pool Ideas"

November 13, 2019

4.0

Dropbox Paper's UI is familiar and makes for an easier learning curve for those unfamiliar with its usage. We've been throwing ideas around a lot using it and will be implementing its use more.

Pros

It's amazing how fast it is to have the whole team, including freelancers to come up with ideas for pitches or make changes to an ongoing edit. Having a more visual approach and seamless adding of elements makes it easy to communicate with everyone.

Cons

None, really. It supplements our use of Trello for project management. My only gripe is that there's not many people I know who use Dropbox Paper. Most are still stuck with Google apps.

### "Easy file organization"

October 26, 2019

5.0

When you work remotely from home like I do Dropbox paper comes in very handy to share files with coworkers and let everyone make the changes they need to

Pros

It’s an excellent way to share file in the cloud. It is easy to use and understand, and fits in seamlessly with my other office programs.

Cons

I don’t like that you can’t format the fonts in Dropbox paper. No adding bold letters or italics. And you don’t have a lot of options to export to other format types.

### "DropBox is an easy way to share files"

August 21, 2019

5.0

Pros

Accessible from all types of devices, I can share, view and edit documents from basically anywhere to anywhere

Cons

The app on the Apple IOS may be slow and unresponsive at times, as downloading PDFs takes a bit. That could be the network though.

### "Helps me keep track of ideas "

April 3, 2020

5.0

Pros

I use this for my notes and ideas. It's great that it syncs across all my connected devices and I can continue my train of thought on a different device. It's excellent for collaboration. I've used it multiple times while on a conference call and all parties have the same document open and we can collaboratively take notes on the conversation in real time.

Cons

Some of the mobile format features could be more user friendly. I don't have any specific input on how to fix it. But I find my self switching to Word on my phone to get more comprehensive formating on a few of my documents.

### "Best option for shared team documents"

August 11, 2021

5.0

Dropbox Paper is a fantastic tool and I love using it at work, especially as a design geek!

Pros

Beautiful UI, easy to use, and much more focused on business use cases than Google Docs.

Cons

I haven't really found any flaws worth mentioning. Sometimes it takes me a minute to figure out how to do something I haven't done before, but typically i either figure it out with a small amount of poking around, or I find the answer in the documentation.

### "Dropbox"

February 25, 2020

5.0

Overall this software does come in handy and helps out in major ways. This software would be awesome if they were to update it.

Pros

This software is good in the sense that you can have everything together in one place and you are able to link others to the document.

Cons

The con about this software is that it seems to not keep up with the time and it needs updating. There are other software that can do what this does and more.
