Ironically, the detractors of the Dropbox launch were ultimately right. Dropbox got their lunch eaten by less product-focused competitors, including folks like Microsoft and Apple who also knew that setting up managed NAS is a cheap-and-simple challenge. Dropbox as a company is barely on most people's radar these days. |

Dropbox is the prime example of what's wrong with engineers: We cannot assess a business idea to save our lives.
For us the solution is straight forward - we can setup an FTP server, who needs an app to sync files?!
