Amazed there's still no good permission settings on nested folders in dropbox.
Ran into this on a 4-5 year old project with multiple contributors and even on their paid versions, there's no good way to consolidate folders that have multiple "owners."
Seems like there has to be a better way to handle this - Google Drive takes care of it much better.
- blaike 9y agoNever gonna be a priority unless they release a new enterprise platform. Use Box for this.
- nilsbunger 9y agoDropbox Business supports nested shared folders now. Source: I evangelized it and worked on it.
- joelrunyon 9y agoBut from different sources, etc? I have a whole bunch of folders over the past 3-4 years that are "owned" by different people that worked for me. I tried to get them all organized under one subfolder and it's not allowed.
- nilsbunger 9y agoTwo options depending on what you’re looking to do: 1. If you just want to personally organize shared folders you receive, you can always put them in folders in your account. 2. If you’re trying to create a nested shared structure, that’s what dropbox biz does. You make your employees team members. The ownership issue becomes less tricky since the biz content is all “owned” by the biz. As a dropbox alum, I’m not up to speed on all the latest nuances. You should chat with sales to see how it could work for you, or just try a trial.
