I got raw video data about 5 TB (mostly large video files 1+ GB) saved in two external drives. I started uploading data in my account but it's taking long (which is expected). Currently uploading files individually (one by one or if smaller size then in group of 4-5) and drag to the dashboard of folder where I want to upload that. And keeping record of what's been uploaded on a separate word file. I am wondering if there is any quicker way to upload or any tips? Thanks!17Views0likes2CommentsDoes the file request upload size limit affect trial plans?
The documentation states the following, but despite multiple attempts to upload a 250GB file through the file request feature, it consistently results in an error and the upload does not complete. Since we are currently conducting a Proof of Concept (PoC) and using the Dropbox Business Plus Trial plan, could this limitation be due to the trial version? Customers on Dropbox Professional, Essentials, Business, Business Plus, Standard, Advanced, and Enterprise can receive files up to 250GB in size.

They ask to join are team almost every time and the point is to share the view. Thanks22Views0likes1CommentBetter Sharing & Better Branding
Dropbox is wonderful -- I've paid for professional for ten years -- but it could be immensely better.. You will make more money if you do these two related things:) (1) The branding feature is way too basic. The options seem like they're from 1995. It would be wonderful if we had more options and more customization. Specifically, if we could create different branding for different customers, it would be amazing. (I use Dropbox to share pictures and videos with my customers. I want to put THEIR branding on these files and galleries, NOT MINE.) (2) The experience of RECEIVING shared files is HORRIBLE, for the people who RECEIVE the links or transfers. Even using the current branding options, Dropbox still puts its OWN branding on the page – this is confusing for the receiver. It's messy and ugly, and it takes up too much screen space. They think they have to create a Dropbox account to receive the files. You are trying to get sales, through me, a paying customer -- that is **bleep**ty. Please take all your branding and sales prompts off these pages, for us paying customers. Also, browsing through pictures on shared links is a slow and not-intuitive process. It would be amazing if you could make it function like[removed per the Dropbox Community Guidelines]. These companies create beautiul galleries, and customers can easily create lists of their favorite pictures. You could actually steal all their business if you did this. I am 100% certain your customers would love these features:)23Views0likes1CommentI accidentally unshared a folder and now I can't add it back to my account.
By mistake, I just unshared a folder where I was the owner and the folder disappeared from my Dropbox Business account. The folder's name is CMaluk...it appears faded when I try to see it again online. PLEASE HELP ME RECOVER IT.130Views0likes4CommentsI'm trying to share a folder with other users, but I keep being asked to verify the email.
Hello , I started dropbox business trial today and trying to share a folder to 2 users .But each time it is asking to verify email address and upon clicking the verification email it lead to dropbox home and nothing happens. Same happens if i add members to the team. Kindly check if someone has come through this and how to get it resolved.155Views0likes1CommentHow can I restrict access to specific folders for specific team members?
I just set-up a Teams folder and thought it would be the solution for file sharing our engineering documents. Unfortunately the primary reason I thought Teams would work is for limiting permissions to specific folders. I don't want contractors having access to our entire suite of engineering projects. It seems ALL subfolders share the the same permission as the top level. So USELESS. i still have to share individual folders to restrict access. Same as regular dropbox. this MUST BE FIXED or Teams is useless.Solved210Views0likes6CommentsHow to get multiple versions of the same file from different people?
I created a fillable form and I want many different clients to fill it out and "save" their own version of it. Then I would need to access each customers independent completed form. So, in other words, multiple people (not on a Dropbox plan) would be filling out my fillable form independently for me to then access? How do I accomplish this? I have the Business Plus plan. Do I need to upgrade? Thank you!86Views0likes1Comment
