As a dropbox user, even with my life in the google ecosystem, I find it's the software that make the most difference. Everything works seamlessly across systems and there's no guesswork on how most of the common synchronization issues will be solved.
Microsoft and Google tainted their offerings from day one and I don't think anyone who remembers those systems wants to go back to them, even if they've improved. I think the old restrictions on file sizes and awkward interfaces have left them with baggage that Dropbox managed to avoid. These are just my opinions based on my experiences using all three products.
A million times this. I'm CTO of a digital agency and implementing dropbox has been a huge productivity win for us. It's the little things: universal links to files, but they're still just files. It makes the onboarding so much more simple. We've actually just started using Office 365 as well, as the integration is great between the two, so you can edit dropbox files on 365 and it's pretty much seamless - Sharepoint/CloudDrive/whatever is a car crash, don't touch it.
I never thought I'd write excitedly about this, and was super sceptical at first, but honestly, it's great. GSuite feels like a toy at this point.
Agree with most of your points, except for the fact that GSuite provides way more than file sharing. The true comparison would be between Google Drive and Dropbox, where Dropbox is difinitely better.
