Many many years back, I used Sugarsync but ditched them a few months later for Dropbox when they screwed up my file sync.
Recently, I switched from annual to monthly subscription for Dropbox because I wanted to push myself to migrate my files off their service..mainly due to concerns about privacy..
I use Google Drive at work.. it's not great, but it works better than OneDrive. Wanted to use OneDrive as it came with my Office365 subscription..but their Mac and Android clients really need improving.
Almost moved to SpiderOak..but stopped due to their poorly designed Android app.
I can't seem to get myself off Dropbox. I don't use external hard disks for backup now. I digitize everything, so it's important to find a service I can trust...both on privacy and on sync reliability..
The sad truth is Dropbox clients across different platforms and their sync stability is unmatched in this space.
- toddmorey 10y agoI completely agree. What's so nice about DropBox is how little I notice it. I'm a happy customer but interestingly I would be a wary investor. I'm not seeing their growth strategy. I've been looking for them to build on their advantage for about 7 years now. New products they've introduced to satellite around their core sync technology don't ever seem to hit traction. That doesn't mean I think they're a decent business and will stay around. I just don't see much on the horizon that would push the business (and the stock) forward.
