Dropbox Business Introduces Support For G Suite Apps – Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides

Users will enjoy the new G Suite integration, which allows them to edit and share Google Docs, Sheets and Slides without the need to leave the Dropbox app. The new feature will be momentarily available only for Dropbox Business subscription plan.

Dropbox Business adds support for G Suite apps

The addition was teased last year, and users will be able to create a new Google file within Dropbox. You will have the option to share and search it at any time as you can do with any Dropbox files. At this point, the new feature is limited to business account but Dropbox noted that it would become available to anyone who registered a Google and Dropbox account in the future.

Users will be able to send the files to other individual users or grant access to them as a part of a shared folder. Privacy can be increased by restricting access to the Dropbox Business team. Recipients will be able to see a read-only file, but the sender can grant the ability to edit the file if they wish to do so.

The new documents can be created within the Dropbox app, the website or the system tray icon. The mobile apps can manage and preview new files. Owners of Dropbox Business and G-Suite accounts have the option to register for the beta by logging in with both accounts.
Dropbox was released more than ten years ago, but the service has managed to build a strong user base.

Dropbox Business features

Here are some of the features offered by the service:

Keep your files handy all times
Save your files and access them from any device. Any change will be synchronized across your devices.
Share everything
Send any file you want to anyone. The files are accessible even if the recipient doesn’t have a Dropbox account.
Improve your workflow with Dropbox Paper
Paper allows several coworkers to share relevant content and information in a unified workspace.

Dropbox is available for free, but companies and those who wish to use the service for business purposes will have to choose a subscription plan, known as Dropbox Business.

Google Web Services, Including Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Sites, Got Material Design

Google web services, such as Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Sites, received the Material Design on January 15th. Users have already seen the new look on G Suite services like Google Docs, Sheets, Slides and Sites on the web, which is just the most recent update of the Google’s redesign initiative that already impacted Google Account, search bar, and Google Translate, among others.

However, the new update Google implemented to its G Suite is purely visual, so no new features or under the hood changes have been introduced.

Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Sites got the new visuals which, according to the official Google blog post, include:

Interface typography that uses Google’s custom-designed and highly-legible typefaces
Controls (like buttons, dialogs, and sidebars) that are updated and consistent
Iconography that is legible and crisp, with a fresh feel

Material Design came to Google web services, including G Suite services such as Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Sites

According to Google, the rollout of the Material Design to G Suite services, including Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Sites, will happen in two phases. The first one has already started on January 15th and is a gradual rollout with up to 15 days for feature visibility. The second stage will commence on February 11th when Google planned the full deployment of its Material Design.

Thus, on February 11th, all the remaining Google web services, G Suite apps, and other Google applications and services would receive the new Material Design.

Also, Google reported that all the new visuals redesign applied over G Suite services, including, as mentioned, Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Sites, would be in-line with the design of Gmail and Google Calendar so that the users would have a more consistent experience across all the G Suite services, as MobileSyrup explained.
