dropboxAs a woman on the go, I always look for tools that will help me stay more productiveDropBox is my recent discovery.  Dropbox is a multi-platform software (Windows, Mac, and Linux) that syncs your files online and across your computers.  The best thing about it is that it’s has a super simple interface and is very easy to use because everything happens so seamlessly.

Once you install Dropbox on a computer, all you have to do is drop the files you would like to sync & share  into the Dropbox folder and they are automatically updated and uploaded on all of your shared computers .

Here are some ways DropBox makes me more productive:

  • Seamlessly synchronize my files – If I’m editing a file on one computer, as soon as I save it, Dropbox will sync this same file to all of the other computers instantly and automatically…this gives me the freedom to work on any computer and always have the files I need.
  • Collaborate on group projects – Our virtual team can have access to key files regardless of which computer we are on.  We also no longer have to send documents via email attachments to each other and the built in version control will keep a history of all of the modifications to the file so we can see how thes document evolves and undo changes if we make a mistake.

    By default, we keep the last 30 days of undo history for all your files. We also have an unlimited undo option called “Pack-rat”.

  • Instant Access to all the files from anywhere – Using the Dropbox website interface to get access to my files from any computer or mobile device.
  • Automatically backup your files – Every time me or my team put a file in to the Dropbox folder it is automatically backed up to DropBox secure servers and we can be restore at any time.

Watch a demo of DropBox and I look forward to hearing your experiences with it!  Are you already using DropBox?  Let me know your thoughts in the comments section.
