Am I the only one who thinks Dropbox isn't very good? I only seem to see positive comments, and that just doesn't make sense to me. I'm a premium Dropbox user

I'm a premium Dropbox user with multiple terabytes of storage. (We deal with large files that have to be shared among many users widely dispersed.) I've been using it for a while now. When dealing with large files, it's slow, clunky, and restrictive. You have to use the desktop client to upload files of any appreciable size, and then you get zero feedback on the file's progress. I just don't see how $3,500 a year for that is better than the cost of an old-school FTP server.
I'm curious if any of you are in a similar situation but have had a better experience.
- almost 14y agoIt's not good for your use case apparently. Your use case isn't the same as most people's use case. Simple :)
- Wonderdonkey 14y agoYeah, I was just kind of curious to hear what other premium users were experiencing. I assume anyone who goes premium has a need like mine. Oh well. Lesson learned: Don't talk smack about a Y Combinator company on Y Combinator. The proprietors have a magical downvote button.
