More than just a place, or rather, a cloud, where you can store all your important digital files, Dropbox has apparently been used by some companies for work purposes, whether it’s file sharing or an organized way to store work documents. Now, the cloud storage service is making working with teams official by introducing the team feature, which should make collaborating with people, both on Dropbox Basic and Dropbox Pro, easier and more seamless.
You can now create teams and sub-teams on Dropbox, whether you’re a big company or a small start-up, and depending on the project that you’re working on. You will be getting additional tools for your team so that you can work better together. Everything you need for the particular project you’re collaborating on can be put in one folder. Everyone that is part of the team will be able to access all the contents in the folder.
It is also now easier to share with working groups and if more people will be added later on, they will also have quick access to all the files in the team folder. If you’re the kind of person who compartmentalizes work and personal life, then you can create a separate account for work and for personal. But both can be accessed anywhere there is Dropbox, like phone, tablet, desktop, etc.
The team feature will be rolling out to all Dropbox users, both Basic and Pro, starting next week. With more than 400 million users to date, and over 60% of those using it for work, then this is something that its user base really needs.
