Companies looking to move away from Dropbox are seeking more than just a simple solution for file sharing. They’re looking for a powerful collaborative tool that comes with an array of options that meet their individual needs.

An alternative to Dropbox is Google Workspace. This service combines Google’s popular apps like Gmail, Drive, Calendar and Meet in a single platform that is suitable for teams of any size. With a powerful search feature, Google Workspace makes it easier for users to find what they’re searching for.

Box is another powerful cloud storage solution. This platform is targeted towards businesses and organizations, and users can use the built-in task manager and note-taking app to improve productivity. Box integrates with third-party software, making it easier for users to connect their preferred tools.

Digital Asset Management (DAM) solutions can enhance Dropbox by providing additional features like enhanced security advanced analytics, standardized metadata which make it easier for users to browse, search and locate media files. Greenfly DAM features, for data rooms example, allow users to communicate with one another via comments, peer to peer messaging and direct links to specific images or videos, instead of relying on folder structures or renaming files using descriptors that can be lost over time.

Some users are concerned about data privacy and want a solution which will respect their privacy. There are numerous free options that prioritize privacy, including Yandex that offers 10GB of storage for free. It is also easy to integrate into other services. Nextcloud, a self hosted productivity tool, permits users to customize their servers in order to protect their data and manage access.
