Dropbox has unveiled a new feature dubbed as team that is aimed for both Basic and Pro users. The team feature is designed to encourage project collaboration and management for work-related files on the Dropbox platform.
Dropbox users will soon see a “team” tab on the left-hand menu list that will let you organize groups of employees and share files with those sets of users in a central hub. Each team automatically gets access to the files in a folder, so there is no need to set up permissions every time. Moving on, you can create groups of team members to share with working groups, and if you need to add a person later, they will instantly get access to any folders already shared with the group.
Finally everyone can create separate accounts for personal and work files and toggle between both seamlessly. Both accounts will be available from desktop, mobile, and on the web. Dropbox said that approximately 60 percent of its 400 million users worldwide are already using Dropbox services at work. The team feature will be rolling out to Dropbox Basic and Pro users over the next week.
