Why Dropbox Falls Short for Large Media Files

Dropbox works well for general file storage and sharing, but it wasn’t built to handle the complexities of large media workflows. Teams working with high-resolution videos, RAW video files or images, or terabytes of data often face slow upload speeds, syncing delays, and file size restrictions.

Collaboration can also become messy. Version control issues, scattered files, and limited access controls often lead to confusion and costly mistakes during critical projects. For creative teams that depend on speed and clarity, these limitations are more than just inconveniences — they’re dealbreakers.

Scalability is another challenge. As your media library grows, Dropbox’s structure can quickly become chaotic, making it harder to locate files and maintain efficient workflows.

Creative teams and media-heavy businesses need more than just a place to store files — they need a solution that keeps pace with their ambition. And that’s where base steps in.
