Dropbox is the pioneer of consumer cloud storage services, starting in 2007 when no comparable service existed. It is mentioned here mostly for historical reasons as you probably have used Dropbox in the past, at least with the 2GB free tier. It is also one of the most available storage solutions on your mobile device for saving photos and documents.
Dropbox is very similar to Microsoft OneDrive: you install the Dropbox app on your computer and your mobile device and all files saved to Dropbox will be automatically be available on all devices.
Dropbox does not provide any additional cloud service, it is purely focused on storage.
The main problem with Dropbox is that if you are already using Microsoft OneDrive or Google Drive, the Dropbox service becomes completely redundant.
The other problem is that Dropbox is expensive compared to its competitors: Dropbox Plus is about A$184.67 per year for 2TB (single user). Compare this to Microsoft 365 Family at A$179 per year for up to 6TB (1TB each for up to 6 people) including the full Office apps and Outlook, and I really don’t see how Dropbox can compete in the consumer market.
