Dropbox has the best sync clients, but that's not enough to save them from being a commodity. Dead-simple and reliable sync seems like a nice-to-have that isn't going to save them from the incredibly large footprint the likes of Microsoft already have in enterprise markets. An IT purchaser might not care much about the usability difference between OneDrive and DropBox (which I'm not even sure exists since the last time I used both.)



Have they solved the CPU usage problems? Dropbox caused serious CPU spikes during backups, and when they didn't fix it for years I moved away.


I don't notice any special CPU issues with the Dropbox client.
