With a great deal of my stat posts over the years spotlighting social networks and ecommerce platforms, it is time to switch a little of the focus to digital services and what better a place to explore than cloud storage services. This has been an area of significant growth over recent years with quite a bit of room still to grow.

The first cloud storage stat post is for one of the largest services out there: Dropbox. Dropbox has been growing exponentially since its launch in 2007 and continues to impress seven years later. Here are a few of the more interesting Dropbox statistics I was able to dig up. As always, this list will surely grow over time, so be sure to check back regularly.
