I would like more tools to analyze my team's file activity on Dropbox

DropBox has evolved within many organizations to take on the role of more than just a sharing and archiving system, to become a fundamental hub integral to many facets of their work. From collaboration, to knowledge distribution, many have leveraged the available client tools, however, the tools available to administrators has not grown along with it. I need data on my data, and sadly the available reports are lacking. For instance, I can see the super-users on our deployment based on physical file storage, but I cannot see what specific files of theirs that are generating the most activity. How am I supposed to justify my license count if there is no means to truly verify the service is worth it, and actively utilized?

    Our team is looking into this and would like more information about the level of detail you would like from this feature? Other than seeing the most active posts. Any additional info you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

    Fully agree, the tools for Admins are extremely limited - especially around Shared files/folders by users.

    Thanks for the feedback MikeLangone - and sorry about the response time.

    Other than users "top trending" files - for want of a better term - is there anything else that you feel would be a useful adition to that activity log too?
