Dropbox Vault
8 TopicsVault termination
It seems like Dropbox is about to do it again. After removing the strong integration with Google Docs, causing many customers to all of a sudden have to work with links instead of documents, Dropbox is now planning for the termination of Vault (end of March '25). Did you like the function that allowed you to keep some files extra safe in a fully encrypted and PIN-locked container on your dropbox ? Yes ? Well tough for you! Remarkably, Dropbox now claims it will automatically move the files you have stored in your vault to a normal folder on your regular dropbox. Oh really? I guess that means Dropbox has full access to my vault then, and can just move files around as they see fit ? That is quite alarming for a functionality that is supposed to be fully encrypted. Really Dropbox, this is NOT how you obtain customer satisfaction or loyalty. I've been using your service for about 20 years now, but I'm actively checking out alternatives.Solved1.2KViews13likes28Comments- 686Views8likes10Comments
Retain Vault!
There are so many reasons to continue Vault but a key one is that the Dropbox folder on a PC (and a Mac?) is not protected by Windows or iOs in any normal way. Vault made protection possible for key files. But of course being able to protect the entire Dropbox folder on a PC or Mac would be an even better idea!Solved147Views6likes4CommentsKeep Vault, and prevent it from being deprecated.
This is a single competitive advantage that Dropbox has that other competition didn't have. This has been successfully used. There have been two failures: Not allowing individuals to purchase above 4TB. This is a huge miss. I want my drives to be backed up. A 4TB space is quite easily filled up. Vault: One of the biggest competitive advantages for your company (Dropbox) Why is this going away? Why was this the decision? Please share this with the community.Solved98Views5likes2CommentsKeep The Vault Please!
Very Dissatisfied At Hearing About The Vault Being Discontinued. The Vault is an extremely handy extra security feature, adding another layer of security. I’m very dismayed to hear that Dropbox, has astonishingly, come to the decision to drop this feature! It makes zero sense. I hope that the company will reevaluate this shocking decision and keep the Vault in play. Many Thanks, Edmond121Views2likes2CommentsVault Sync issue on Desktop
I need to access docs and everytime the vault locks out after 20 min and i have to sync everything back which takes 10 min or so... its so frustrating do i have to remove them out of the vault so i can freely access it on desktop? i usually have to wait till it syncs so long to do1.1KViews1like3Comments
