Dropbox

edit

Dropbox is a software product that makes it easy to securely share files with other people, sync them across multiple computers, access them from anywhere, and keep them safe.

Dropbox was founded by Drew Houston and Arash Ferdowsi in 2007, and received seed funding from Y Combinator. Today, Dropbox is well-funded by Sequoia Capital and Accel Partners, and since launching publicly in September of 2008 it has attracted over a million users and is growing rapidly. Dropbox has been featured in the New York Times and on TechCrunch, and has won awards from places like PC Magazine and CNET.
