Dropbox ?
Dropbox is a file hosting service operated by Dropbox, Inc., headquartered in San Francisco, California, that offers cloud storage, file synchronization, personal cloud, and client software.
Cloud Storage ?
Cloud storage is a cloud computing model in which data
is stored on remote servers accessed from the Internet, or "cloud." It is maintained, operated and managed by a cloud storage service provider on a storage servers that are built on virtualization techniques.
Every cloud storage option has its pros and con. Depending on your specific needs, the size of your environment, and your budget, it’s essential to weigh all cloud and on demand options.
Benefits of Dropbox
Storage Backup:-Smart businessmen know that it’s paramount to store important files and data in different places to ensure that they’ll always have a copy, no matter what disaster they encounter.
File Sharing:-Perhaps the best part about Dropbox is how easy it is to share files between your business colleagues and employees. As long as everyone has an account, adding and sharing content will be a breeze.
Access• Accessing Dropbox is very easy and flexible, thanks to all
the options it offers. Take a look at the access options below, and tell me if they are not convenient:
• Desktop access—Dropbox offers a downloadable application that allows you to access all your files and folders directly from your Windows PC, Linux, or Mac, even when you are offline.
• Online access—if you are out of the house and using other computers, you can easily get a copy of your files by going to the Dropbox website and logging into your account.
• Mobile access—sometimes, we just can’t find any computers to use and get our important data from. At such cases, what you need to do is whip out your mobile device (e.g., iOS, Android, and smartphones), and access your files via the Dropbox app. Pretty neat, right?
Updates:-Whenever a file is added or deleted from a shared folder, Dropbox instantly updates everyone who has access to it. This guarantees that you will always have the most important and latest copy of your files.
Retrieval:-If it were to happen to other cloud storage, it might be a little difficult to get your precious file back. With Dropbox, however, retrieving your file is as easy as clicking the “Undo” button.
