Over time, its functions were supplemented by the possibility of remote viewing, processing and synchronization between the user's gadgets. The principle of operation is as follows: the user signs in to Dropbox, and all files, which will be placed in any of his folders, are automatically uploaded to the cloud repository, synchronized at the same time on all devices. Thus, the user gets access to his/her data from any device, at any time and from any place in the world, having only access to the Internet.

Additional space is purchased separately and paid for monthly, but at fairly low rates: plans of 100 GB, 200 GB and 2 TB are available. The company also offers an annual fee that allows you to pay for 12 months of storage usage at once and save as much as 17% on that.
