Dropbox was not designed for your company's files

Designed for personal storage, Dropbox has blind spots when files become a business-critical asset. Here is what you need to know.

Built for the general public, adapted for business

Dropbox built its foundation on personal storage before adding enterprise layers. Professional file management remains an add-on, not the starting point.

A constellation of apps to piece together

Sign, Paper, DocSend, Backup, Capture, Passwords: these are all separate tools, each with its own license, extending well beyond simple file management.

Limited brand identity on shared files

Your recipients receive links to dropbox.com, which may feature a logo but lack a branded domain or portal.

No French health certification

Dropbox meets American standards (HIPAA), but not the HDS certification required to host health data in France.

Voltn supports professionals across all sectors.
