## Reviews

### "It is the best tool or platform for creating documents." — 4.0/5

> **Alan** | *6 August 2023* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Dropbox Paper is a simple and easy platform for producing papers and communicating with others; it takes little to no time to set up documents, and users have the option to personalize documents to meet their own needs. You may import material from other websites, such as photographs, movies, and GIFs. It is a comprehensive collaboration tool, and one of the finest features is list generation; you may have to-do lists, bulleted lists, numbered lists, and so on.
> 
> **Cons**: The UI may be difficult to use, and it's not always straightforward to discover the functions I require. Furthermore, the Dropbox role does not always function properly with other apps, so I have to troubleshoot a few times.
> 
> I'm making folders to organize my documents and make them available from any device, and it also allows me to work with others. Any file we work on is automatically saved, so there is never a problem with data loss. Instead of overwriting it, Dropbox creates another version for changes we make to documents, allowing us to seamlessly revert any written changes by going to a previous version of the document, which is useful when writing code and running into errors while expanding it. It solves our problem of finding a location to store all of our information; it's simple to organize and generate documents; and I enjoy making folders.

### "Well organized" — 4.0/5

> **Autumn** | *12 September 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the organization features when it comes to to-do list for the team and due dates
> 
> **Cons**: I’m still new to it so I’m maneuver through, no cons yet
> 
> So far my experience has been well. I like the collaboration and organization features that are offered.

### "No Dropbox Paper for me" — 3.0/5

> **April** | *17 October 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: None so far, it was already the software being used by my company when I first started working with them. Basically I had no choice in the matter and had to use it for about 2 years before we switched to GDocs.
> 
> **Cons**: For me, it was a bit challenging to use the software tbh. I tried to use it for 6 months, but I prefer the layout and features of Google Docs. Good thing our company decided to stop using it and we switched right away.
> 
> Not so good, they should maybe try and improve the software to be like GDocs perhaps, but offer other features that GDocs currently does not have.

### "What is this for?" — 5.0/5

> **Justin** | *27 October 2023* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the ease of use. The command button, the keyboard shortcuts, and the fact that it was integrated in my file system worked great.
> 
> **Cons**: When I used Dropbox Paper, task management didn't feel like the purpose of the platform. It seemed like it wanted to give me an alternative to Google Docs. And, it sort of does, but largely didn't. I still needed to interact with my email which was in Gmail so I couldn't truly escape the Gmail ecosystem.
> 
> Great product for teams that are based in Dropbox. But if you're a lone-ranger in Dropbox and your team is in Google Workspace, you'll find it challenging to actually leverage either system for all of their benefits.

### "Helps to replace Google drive" — 4.0/5

> **Nicholas** | *23 November 2021* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This is a very easy platform to use for collaboration and task delegation. It functions in an analogous manner to that of Google drive.
> 
> **Cons**: Not as many functionalities as Google drive but very easy to use and accomplish tasks.
