Well Done DropBox, really pleased with their latest email.

Dropbox are now giving you 10x the space with 1TB of backup space, that is 900GB more than their 100GB pro usage!

I cannot tell you how good dropbox is, it has to be one of the best apps on my phone, Ipad, android tablet.

I can share folders for friends and also for clients so that all the time they get the latest files that I have, I also write an invoice and its with me at all times. and the best is that I run my outlook express directly from dropbox too so that emails will never be lost. And backup all my pictures, and with my new camera files at 24MB I really need the space lol!!!

I have tried a few other variants in the past but nothing compares to dropbox and now with the extra 900GB space for $9.99 (about 6 quid) a month you can't go Wrong.

If you want your data safe and available instantly dropbox is great!

A kind member on Dw introduced me to Dropbox @Mick. It is indeed like you say a great piece of kit. :)

Put them on par with google drive who offer 15GB for free, 100GB for $1.99 a month or 1TB for $9.99.

Gmail, music stored in Google play (up to 20,000 of your own tracks) and docs generated with google docs do not count towards that limit.


In addition, I believe you can share your space between multiple accounts so all the family for example can share the 1 TB drive if you want to but still lock it down so they can't see each others files.

To be fair, I think that is the reason why they have done the upgrade... they are falling miles behind as space becomes cheaper and cheaper.

I am happy because I am a big dropbox fan, and the only thing that worried me was the space :)

I think the good news is there are multiple options now. Each has their own merits which I suggest people check. I'm already a Google drive user (partially because I am a Android and chromebook user) and it does a LOT more than just storage. Sharing, searching, online integration, document management are amongst some of the items that google drive is miles ahead of anything that anybody else offers.

If you already with dropbox and just want the fastest, straightforward online storage then stick with them and the price drop is a welcome bonus.
 
for the record - even though mick gushed over dropbox like tom cruise about scientology... he was right (mick not tom)

dropbox is pretty good.
bought a galaxy tablet and got 50 gig free for 2 years

came in real handy as a mate had all his stuff cryptolockered (CryptoLocker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

at least i can browse all these dodgy places without worrying about my stuff.
 
Been using dropbox myself for years. Got extra space from using my HTC phone and also Samsung tab.

I use it mostly for sharing, as I wouldn't trust them with my personal files, but I do share a lot of stuff around the world. Isn't it in their terms and conditions that they can, if they wanted, do anything with your files. :)

More comics, ebooks & music flow through my dropbox than water over the nigra falls.

As for sharing large ISO type files I find BittorrentSync much faster and there's no space limitation as it doesnt have a central server.

As for emails I use Imap so they are always available on the web or through outlook, thunderbird etc...

I got google drive way back when it was a yearly sub instead of monthly so it's around 90% cheaper than it is now. Also got a onedrive account, Adrive and a few others totalling around 2tb all for free (except google which I pay for as I have just over 50gb of family pictures I use picasa abums for as you have to pay for full res uploads).
