Here are a few Dropbox statistics I was able to dig up so far. As with all of my stat posts, this one will be updated whenever I stumble on new and interesting stats. Be sure to subscribe to my site updates and/or check back regularly to see the latest Dropbox facts.
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 a decade later. It is one of the largest services of its kind and caters to a healthy mix of personal and enterprise user bases.
Here are a few of the more interesting Dropbox statistics I’ve stumbled across in my internet travels. I hope you find them helpful.
This report is available in an annual industry report. Some of the data in industry reports include:
- Users
- Demographics
- Revenue
- Growth
- Etc.-all in one place
I try to go through each and every stat regularly and update as much as possible, but we all know that some stats are easier to track down than others. As always, every stat is linked to its original source and has the source date listed.
