Beyond Cloud and Mobile
summary
Dropbox reports 300 million users and 100,000 paying businesses, both roughly doubled year over year, and cites 1 billion files saved every day and about 30 billion Office documents. Growth is strongest in Europe (noted 120 million users there), expansion targets Asia, Australia and South America, and a default Office integration with Microsoft. Security uses 256‑bit encryption in transit and at rest, freemium plus Dropbox for Business funds growth, and consumer-facing features like Carousel aim to make stored data more useful rather than monetize it via ads.
