    AFAIK the standard dropbox install allows you to share folders as default funtionality so not sure what additional product you mean?

      I use it. Pretty good, supported on Mac and Windoze.

      Happy to recommend it.

          I use it for a lot of things, but where it excels is a filesystem-like access to files on iOS devices, really handy overall.

            Am I using Dropbox wrong but the inability to just copy a file structure in makes it next to useless for me? I just cba to re-create the whole lot or add another when I create a new structure.

            I can't believe they have missed this trick so maybe I am using it wrong or just not being patient enough on the initial setup?

              I use dropbox a lot - share some pretty huge Photoshop and zip files on it (as in sharing them with other Dropbox users as well as using the Public link feature) and it never lets me down! I'm on the 100GB plan and a lot of contractors I know use the free version.

                Sorry I don't understand the question. Can you be more explicit about what it won't do? An example would help.

                  I use it and its pretty good but also use https://www.box.com/ as a back up (this copies file structures with no problems at all)
