GBI really appreciate Dropbox having had a headache with OneDrive I really appreciate Dropbox having just used OneDrive for a couple of weeks which was a disaster. I'd used free Dropbox for a few years without issues and was running out of space so moved all my files to my 1TB OneDrive but had lots of problems, so have upgraded to a paid Dropbox account and moved my files to that. My only issue with Dropbox is it's really confusing to cancel your paid plan, hence 4 stars not 5.

GBTry Another Solution Dropbox Sucks Try another online storage solution. Dropbox will hold your files hostage, and now I can't download anything. Here's the kicker: I can't update my credit card information in Chrome OR Safari to keep the account active. What a joke! The iFrame in the credit card portal does not work in either browser. Do yourself a favor and skip DB for a more robust, ethical solution. I'm fed up. The next time someone asks to share something with me its Google Drive only or they can send it physically.

GBHORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE After recently purchasing a company I was unaware we were using this program. When it came time to renew, I was charged $3,500 to my card. I didn't know we had this program, let alone that it was renewal time, so the charge was a complete shock. There were 13 licenses on the account from the previous owner. Eleven of those employees were no longer with the company, and two of the the eleven are deceased (one three years ago and the other one year ago). When I called to rectify this (the renewal was April, I called in April), I explained our situation and they would do absolutely nothing about it. I have 6 employees that will use this program and now I have to pay for 13 licenses for an entire year. As a business owner, I would NEVER do this to one of my customers. While nice, the customer service is horrible. And now that I have gotten rid of those licenses for our next renewal (that I paid for) I have no access to them. So I am essentially paying for 13 licenses and I only have access to six. Highway ROBBERY!

DEYour Data Is Not Safe Here! Dropbox is absolutely disappointing! A colleague has been paying for a premium upgrade for years and had personal files such as children's photos and videos stored there. When he shared a VR mod with me, it was mistakenly flagged as a virus by Dropbox. The result? His entire data is lost forever, his account has been deleted, and he doesn't even get one-time access to the data he paid to secure. Disgusting! Your data is not safe here.

GBDon't Use DropBox I've just cancelled my account with them. It appears they want you to pay for the service now, even a basic cost, so have switched to another provider. They can do what they like with my vids and any photos. This part I find cheeky and unprofessional: even if I DELETE vids and photos, it WON'T free up more space at all and, somewhere on their site, they admit this! This I found unbelievable and so annoying.
