Keep everyone on the same page
Dropbox team accounts make it easy to work with your team, whether they’re co-workers or clients, on a variety of projects.
Now that you know how to share files with others, let’s take a look at another collaboration tool: Comments. Everyone with access to a file can leave a comment for all other team members to see within Dropbox. No need for back-and-forth emails, instant messages, or downloading software. Now you can keep everything in one place in Dropbox—right next to the content itself.
A picture says a thousand words
Sometimes you just need an image to really convey what you want to say. That’s why Dropbox Paper has stickers—why use words, when a wizard will do?
Let’s talk
Comments can bring the right people in the conversation and keep it flowing smoothly. Anyone who can view a file can see its comments. Comments are listed chronologically, so you never risk missing anything.
That’s the spot
You can leave comments on the overall file or on specific spots within a file. Just highlight text or part of an image and the comment icon will appear.
@mentions
Need someone specific to respond? Just @ (at) mention them. When making a comment, simply type the @ (at symbol) and their name. If that person is in your contacts, an autocomplete option is shown. If not, you can type the @ symbol, followed by their email address.
What if the person you want to @ (at) mention doesn’t have a Dropbox account? No problem. They’ll still be notified about the comment via email.
