Sorry to see that some have had rather more negative experiences. Treatment of long time users and limiting to 3 devices imposed without warning is rubbish.
Yes, it's functional but hostility to users from company deserves 0 stars - not possible to score that low but I am sure many users would if they could. As for all these "5 star" reviews - fake reviews, one-time posters, probably some dropbox employee paid to post them! Message to dropbox - treat your users with respect! Aapple Aug 6 Note that this version installer, This happened to me on two different computers with the latest Mojave.
After a while of the scary freeze, the computer was released to work again. DistrictDawg Aug 1 Confused by the score as I couldnt live without Dropbox. It works virtually every time, is easy to use and the cancelling is also easy. Excellent Cloud based storage solution.
Been using since it hit the web. Understandably Dropbox is a business and needs to show a profit. Thanks for what you've given, and will continue to use Dropbox as a secondary Cloud solution via the web interface.
Whytoi Jul 24 A very good cloud data storage service that's good for sharing and other purposes. Used their free service for years and the app has worked fine and integrated with macOS well.
Never had an app crash through the years, including the current version. Now, how the heck did it receive a 1 out of 5 stars rating on Macupdate? Makes no sense. Tim27 Jul 17 There are people on Fiverr that will add a good amount of free space to your Dropbox by using your referral link.
John Jul 4 I have used Dropbox for many years. It does what it says on the tin, and is perfectly capable of updating itself. I have given it four stars rather than five because of recent years it has tended to become rather over-featured, with unnecessary interfaces and facilities. I am only writing this review because MacUpdate is pestering me, after downloading a fresh library copy.
Be warned! If the emails do not stop I will try unfollowing the app. Djefis Jul 1 I have been using dropbox since and it has always satisfied me But now that it has reduced the device limit to 3, I am looking for an alternative! But they intend to make me buy an upgrade I canceled my subscription, April 16, They charged me April 23, , with You won't get out of the shit until you cancel everything through PayPal.
PayPal is very good! I removed two other bloodsuckers in the same tube. Stay away from the DropBastards. Still the most stable and fastest cloud storage throughout these years!
Dropped G Suite and Office after simultaneously using them. Loving Dropbox Transfer, it is like your builtin WeTransfer. Yes, the price is still a hurdle but fk it. By the way, All these complaints I see are just "free" users complaining about 3 computers maximum for their free account?
I used it for many years but.. Dropbox has remained in the past Are you serious? Good bye, Dropbox. DistrictDawg Apr 5 My go-to online storage.
It has never been "down" at any time for me and the apps both on my iMac and iPhone are rock solid. Steve-From-Pottstown Feb 21 I just paid to add more computer to my dropbox list. Have been using for greater than tens years were great sucess! I've tested several of them and dropbox is really the fastest and most reliable. Derekcurrie Jan 10 Dropbox is now at v IOW it has a learning curve. Users still have to go into Preferences to see what version they're using, which has always been stupid.
The version number should be listed right next to or instead of "Up To Date" in the menu bar item. Example: Mine currently says it's 'Up To Date' at v The app could use a major overhaul.
Thus I knocked off an extra star rating. I've used DB since Oct I referred several users and have built up a nice storage space. Was a good application but now, with the 3 device limit it sucks. I just had to do a clean install on a MacBook that was a DropBox device. I am screwed and will look for another cloud service or an in-home option such as a Synology NAS. Don't like clouds. I do my own backup on my own devices.
This is a convenient file hosting service. Rick-K Oct 9 Worthless since I can only use it on 3 devices now! Thanks, Google! Slurp Aug 29 Prefer more than 3 devices. The features of drop box become purposeless at 3 devices. No doubt Bezos has put up the cost of AWS or they are just greedy. I tried Dropbox paid against iCloud a couple of years ago. I kept dropbox on my 6 or so devices for old times sake. But, now I think dropbox became history for me.
I am not looking for a way to make life more complex. Three devices just don't cut it. By Dropbox, thanks for all the fish. Jer Jun 25 The new interface is a big step back in readability and usability. I wish they would just keep it to the basics and stop adding in more crap. Slurp Jun 25 Although MacUpdate is not to blame, it is good to know that this new version, in spite what is mentioned OS X With OS X Dumped it.
My wife had to log back in to 1password but couldn't in an emergency. The problem was that dropbox silently stopped letting you login with more than 3 devices, and we used dropbox to sync vaults. Since that was the main purpose of Dropbox for us, I dumped it. And Google or a dozen other services let me share large files with friends temporarily.
Bottom line, giving Dropbox 3-stars because it works, but I'm switching. Like many other reviewers, I've used Dropbox for years but recent terms "updates" force me to find an alternative to their free service in order to keep working the way I have been. Plus, Sync. There's no way for Sync. Can I disable auto-updates? You cannot disable or turn off auto-updates. Notes about auto-updates : If Dropbox software is installed on your computer, it will update regardless of whether you installed it or the application came preloaded by the device manufacturer The proxy settings you add using these steps aren't used to update the Dropbox app Dropbox uses your operating system network settings to apply auto-updates.
