Dropbox is known to be an online file storage, sharing and collaboration tool. In most cases Dropbox serves the same purpose as a traditional in-house file server, without the need for any special hardware, or the associated cost and maintenance overheads.
Standard Dropbox plans do not have any of the team management features that Dropbox Business plans have. With a Business plan, you will have access to an administrator console, centralised billing, access to Dropbox partners, and of course, allowance of multiple users for your team.
With the admin features you will have control over which devices your team members can use to access Dropbox, set up tiered admin roles, always-on security monitoring with notifications and alerts, and audit logs.
With Dropbox, you can define as many organisational teams or departments as you like, all of which can have their own shared folder for collaborating together. Individuals can have their own private folder repository. You can also have a shared folder for everyone in the company. And in all cases, you can share specific files and folders instantly and securely between colleagues or your external clients and suppliers.
Teams and colleagues can chat about documents from within Dropbox, making it simple and efficient to gather opinions on collaborative pieces of work.
Business policies allow you to control exactly who can see and share your files, keeping your organisation’s intellectual property and confidential information highly secure at all times.
Industry-leading backup and file version history allows you to restore lost files, recover from ransomware attacks, or just simply revert to an earlier version of your document if you want to start over.
Sending large files is also easy with Dropbox. Just send a link to your recipients and they can download large files directly from Dropbox online, saving time and bandwidth compared to emailing or using WeTransfer (or similar services). You can also set restrictions on who can download the file, for how long, and optionally password protect the download too.
The Professional + eSign bundle provides you with more storage and an easy way to request or add unlimited legally binding signature requests to documents stored within a seamless Dropbox workflow.
Tackle your everyday tasks with one tool. Create, edit, and share cloud content from Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides, Microsoft Office files, and Dropbox Paper right from Dropbox.
With the Standard + DocSend bundle you get real-time analytics, advanced document controls, personalised document spaces, and more.
Easily recover and restore lost or deleted files. Rewind your entire account back in time. And back up your computer and connected drives automatically with Dropbox Backup.
Dropbox Transfer is the safe, easy way to deliver final files of any size to colleagues and clients. Set custom passwords and expiration dates to protect your work, and confirm delivery with download notifications.
A secure, distributed infrastructure—plus admin tools for control and visibility—keep your company’s data safe on Dropbox.
