Dropbox has two good things going for it. One is that its syncing is reliable (not perfect, but usually better than the rest). The other is Linux support, which competitors ignore. Linux may not affect you directly, but if anyone in the org or collaborators use it, then you really want to be able to work with them too.
Those two things aside, Dropbox is very poor. They don't have multi-account support. (There is some abomination where you can combine exactly one personal account with one business account, in a frankenmonster hostile user experience.) Their activity logs don't tell you which machine made changes, only which user. The mobile app doesn't sync, but many users think it does. I don't know how competitors differ in these kind of things, but that is because I use Linux.
