What do you like best about Dropbox Paper?

Dropbox paper makes it easy to find the docs you need for each meeting. Don’t have a meeting agenda yet? Use Paper’s smart templates to create one and its very easy to use and it also let you add comments to a specific part of an image, attributions .

It’s a great tool for ad-hoc, informal, collaborative on-line documents, especially ones which change frequently.

Dropbox Paper is a brilliant cross over between Medium and Google Docs. The same way Slack can be seen as cross over between IRC and Chat messengers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dropbox Paper?

In Dropbox Paper almost everything else is that they are stuck into an old-school hierarchy for storing data. They are based on files and folders. Evernote is based on notes & notebooks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Dropbox Paper:

It also works well with a lot of social networking website that I love, like YouTube and Pinterest.

Dropbox faces is that it’s entering this space at a time when bazillions of people:

a) are happily accustomed to using Google Docs, and

b) have reached their limit of new apps and products that they’re interested in using for this type of use case.

Dropbox Paper is a brilliant cross over between Medium and Google Docs. The same way Slack can be seen as cross over between IRC and Chat messengers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Dropbox Paper solving and how is that benefiting you?

It doesn’t have anything like the control over formatting or pagination needed for a document you intend to publish.

Dropbox Paper is a brilliant cross over between Medium and Google Docs. The same way Slack can be seen as cross over between IRC and Chat messengers.

One font. No paragraph styles. No headers or footers. No section or multi-level paragraph numbers. No cross-references. no indexes or TOCs. No diagrams, just images. Want a border around your image? Forget it. It may be OK for simple memos, but that’s about it. But then it’s surely not intended for serious paginated documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Dropbox Paper?

Dropbox is easy to share documents with users in a team - even (especially) if the team is made up of users from multiple organizations. Have tried using similar sharing apps but it is very cumbersome and convoluted to get outside organizations set up to share. Dropbox makes it easy! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dropbox Paper?

it is still just another place to have to go look for shared documents. Even if it is integrated into the File Directory function of windows, it just adds another place to look. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Dropbox Paper?

Dropbox Paper is a clear and natural stage for making reports and working together with others. It requires next to zero investment to set up archives. Dropbox Paper gives clients the freedom to alter archives to suit their requirements. You can add media from outside sources, similar as pictures, recordings, and GIFs. Dropbox Paper additionally upholds adding joins from media sources, such as Youtube, SoundCloud, Vimeo, Streamable, and so on. You can install the recordings from the connections straightforwardly on the report for simple review. Dropbox Paper is a finished instrument for coordinated effort, and one of the most incredible highlights is making records.

You can have numerous types of records, for example, daily agendas, bulleted records, numbered records, and so on. While you're adding recordings or pictures from outer sources through joins, Dropbox Papers shows a spring-up window to peruse the connection. You can track down what to insert on the record without leaving the Dropbox Paper tab. As it is a part of Dropbox, Dropbox Paper permits you to coordinate records from Dropbox for altering and teaming up with others. Dropbox Paper is the best cloud-coordinated code-composing stage for software engineers and programming designers.

Dropbox Paper consequently carries out grammar featuring and code space in the wake of distinguishing the language of the code you've composed. You can make tables on Dropbox Paper in wake of choosing the number of lines and sections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dropbox Paper?

As a long-term client of Dropbox, I've likewise been involving Dropbox Paper for joint effort and report-altering work. There's nothing I detest about it.

The interface can be difficult to navigate, and it is not always easy to find the features I require. Furthermore, Dropbox paper does not always work well with other software. I'll have to troubleshoot a few times.

There may not be anything that I despise. I believe I have patience and hope that some of the features I want will be added as the product develops.

For instance, I'd want to be able to highlight or draw arrows to particular areas of an image once it has been imported.

Additionally, I'd want colored fonts and more highlighting colors (there are currently six, I believe). It would also be excellent to have more alternatives for bullet lists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Dropbox Paper solving and how is that benefiting you?

It makes switching between Google Docs and the necessary elements simpler. In comparison to other applications we have used recently, it is also simpler for us to use, edit, and switch between documents using this one.

It is a lovely approach to ensure complete consistency across all documents in a professional setting. Assigning tasks and sharing information is simple. Additionally, it helps a lot in keeping track of everyone's ideas to see who wrote what (name on the left-hand side). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
