Dropbox Updates

Get started with Dropbox Paper—now in open beta

We built Dropbox Paper to help fast-moving teams create collaborative docs and share important information. It’s a big part of how we’re reimagining the way people work together. We originally launched Paper to a limited number of teams in private beta. And now we’re excited to open up the beta so anyone can sign up—without the waitlist. Plus, we have new Paper mobile apps for iOS and Android that you can use for on-the-go access.

Keep your team on the same page using Dropbox Paper | | Dropbox Blog

Our users often tell us how collaborating on a team helps them get work done—from finishing projects faster to discovering new ideas. But keeping teams in sync can be tricky, especially when you’re working with people in different offices and job functions. That’s where Dropbox Paper can help—it’s a new way for teams to work together and stay on the same page.
 
New Dropbox mobile offline folders let you work on the go

Do trains that go through tunnels with no cell signal give you separation anxiety? Ever been halfway through a document review when you had to leave the office to catch a bus with no Wi-Fi? When you count on your travel time to be a productive part of your workday, being offline at the wrong time can be a frustrating interruption. So today, we’re introducing Dropbox mobile offline folders, a new premium feature that lets you keep working from your phone no matter where you are.

This feature has been a top request from users, so we’re excited to bring it to our Dropbox Pro, Business, and Enterprise customers. With mobile offline folders, you can tag an entire folder to have its contents automatically synced to your phone or tablet—no need to mark individual files for download. Just open Dropbox while you’re connected to the internet, and the app will take care of the rest. So whether you’re on the go or off the grid, you’ll always have access to your most important info.
 
Transforming how teams collaborate

The feature I want from Google Drive.

Dropbox Smart Sync, formerly Project Infinite, lets you seamlessly access all your files and folders—whether they’re on your hard drive or in the cloud—right from the desktop. No need to jump into a web browser, and no need to shuffle files if you have more in the cloud than you can fit on your computer.
With Smart Sync, all your files and folders can be viewed in Windows File Explorer and macOS Finder, even if they’re not stored locally. And when you need them, files and folders are just a double click away. Plus, Smart Sync works where you work, on Windows and Mac, even if you aren’t on the latest version of your operating system.

OneDrive had it for a while but I think Microsoft ended up killing it.
 


3 ways you can use Dropbox Showcase

Have you ever emailed a batch of files to a client, only to find out they completely overlooked your message? Or that they only downloaded the first of five attachments? Or that your work got forwarded along without your name or attribution?

Headaches like these not only create more work for you—they undermine the way your work comes across. That’s why we made Dropbox Showcase, a new way to share that puts your work in the best light. Included with Dropbox Professional—and available to Advanced and Enterprise teams in early access—Showcase helps you present your work professionally and track what happens after you share. Here are three ways you can use Showcase to make a big impact, without all the stress.
