It's been a product for 17 years.



Not when your competition are consumer companies like Google, Microsoft and Apple.

I'm on Google One at $100 per year, getting more services than Dropbox can offer with their $120 plan.

Maybe they have a future in enterprise sales, but they are outcompeted even by Zoho in consumer space


I'm responding to the person who quoted Steve Jobs by saying Dropbox isn't a product, it's a feature. 17 years is a really long time on the web, and Dropbox has not only been a product, but a successful publicly traded company for most of that time, during which so many other "real" products have risen and fallen. The fact that you subscribe to Google One doesn't tell me anything, except that Google created a product to compete with Dropbox, which is also a product.


A product thats getting its lunch eaten by products that have dropbox as a feature
