![Dropbox Plus - 2 TB of Storage for 1 Year (Upgrade from Dropbox Basic 2 GB) [Online Code]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/5122ZMiF9YL.__AC_SY445_SX342_QL70_ML2_.jpg)
Dropbox service is great. I have had it for many years, and the promo that Amazon ran for a free $20 gift card made it a no brainer. Some features of Dropbox for those that are new:
- access your files anywhere. there are lots of cloud services and almost all offer a free version, including dropbox. i have the free version of many of them as well, but dropbox is the only one i pay for because of the added bonuses below. access files is super simple- online, dedicated folder on your computer, on your phone. additionally, you can sync your password manager, or other apps to dropbox and have access everywhere for your passwords.
- camera uploads. this is great. you can set your phone or tablet to automatically upload and backup your pictures and videos hassle free and no need to remember. you can set it so it only does it on wifi to protect your data usage. then finding photos from your old phone or while sitting at your computer couldn't be easier.
- integrated Microsoft office. this is probably something that a lot of people don't know. you can edit documents in native Microsoft office through dropbox. no need to have it on your computer or device. saves automatically and it is uploaded back to your cloud without any copy left on the computer you are using. great feature.
-Dropbox paper. this is in addition to the MS Office integration. Paper allows multiple users to edit one document together or alone, in real time. very cool feature.
-Sharing. you can share any file or folder with others. they dont even need a dropbox account necessarily. makes group projects or sharing files/photos super simple and the files never leave your cloud. you can set permissions such that the invited people can edit or just view.
-selective sync. this is great for saving space. you can set dropbox up on your laptop or computer, but in case you just use a few folders from dropbox routinely, you can have just those kept on that device. the folders will sync with the cloud so all changes are reflected everywhere, but you can work offline on the synced files too. you can change this day to day or minute to minute as far as the files you have synced to the local device. great for the new devices that have SSDs and less storage space.
-local dropbox. this goes hand in hand with the above feature, but basically you can set a local copy of dropbox that will sync with the cloud. when you are working on your computer, it will save the same as any other local folder, except this one will sync wiht the cloud. great feature that helps to ensure your work will be saved and accessible.
-back up your music, imp files, etc. a lot of people dont know that you can save your defaulty documents, photos, music, etc folders within dropbox. this will effectively make your 1TB account on the cloud a real time back up of your current device. all without need for reminders, space limitations, etc.
