What is DBfB?
I'm making up my own acronyms now!
DBfb = DropBox for Business
DBfP = DropBpx for Personal Use
ODfP = OneDrive for Personal use -
@BRRABill is DropBox for Business an actual product? I'm not sure of their product names.

It's actually called DropBox Business, I see.
https://www.dropbox.com/business
It was recommended by a few here in my other thread.
I was going to put THIS thread in THAT thread, but thought it might be better separeted.
-
@BRRABill okay, I thought that they did not follow the MS naming convention, that was confusing.
-
DropBox Business does full versioning, I believe. It is a general purpose storage system using snapshots on the back end.

You mean not SharePoint/MS integrated.
Correct. Sharepoint is application level versioning, it is actually reading the files. You actually edit them inside of Sharepoint. Dropbox is just working at the file / filesystem level.
-
Remember that Sharepoint / ODfB is doing awesome things like allowing multiple people to be editing the same document at the same time and communicate with each other through the document, make changes together, see updates from the other person as you go. It is a collaboration extension of MS Office.

And with a product like DropBox Busniess I can collaborate by SHARING, but not working on the document at the same time.

Right, which is a bit different.
