Got a relative working at Box who's been there for a while. Husband is doing his best to launch a startup and he's made some big strides forward in the last year. Think they'll be very happy with a big payday.
I have Dropbox seamlessly integrated in a number of my devices, but I don't pay anything. I think Box has the advantage of having built a foundation on the basis of customers that expect to pay. Will be interesting to see if Dropbox can transition to capturing more paying customers.
The thing that's always got me with Dropbox is the relatively steep price cliff.
I pay nothing for 16GB of Dropbox because of referrals and other gimmicks. If I want to add space, it's $100-120. If I want my wife or kids to benefit from the space I don't need, I need to buy a very expensive business plan.
Give me a $50 annual option that's useful, and I'll be a paying customer!
