Don't remove Dropbox Showcase !
Hello,
I just heard that Dropbox Showcase was going to disappear. I am both sad and very upset to hear this news. A few years ago I decided to take out a Business subscription for this tool. Th...

So mad and sad right now. Just discovered this morning that the Showcase feature, along with all my work has disappeared overnight, with no warning. Not only did I not receive any kind of consultation, but I didn't even receive any notification that this was going to happen. If I had, I could have at least copied all the unique text I'd written within the Showcases - now it's all gone, with zero notice or regard from the company I pay a decent monthly price to as a customer.
In fact, Showcase was and is the only reason I even pay for a business account and, like others have said, by sharing Showcase links, I know of many others who have been impressed by it and have either upgraded or taken out new subscriptions to Dropbox because of it.
Showcase had its flaws and limitations for sure, but enough functionality to be able to work with and I used it faithfully in the hopes that it might be worked on and improved as time went on. I would never have invested so much time and money into it if I knew it would be taken away as suddenly as this and now I feel cheated for all the many months and years I've been paying for and relying on this service.
I will now be reviewing my options and trying to make good the damage that has been caused by not only the removal of the feature but also my access to it so I could at least take steps to minimise the damage and loss as I've said. At this precise moment, I can't see any good reason to continune paying a monthly subscription to Dropbox and have frankly lost all trust and faith as a customer as now that I know they've done something like this once, I know they could do it again.
