    Very similar for collaboration, however, Dropbox Paper has more features for the types of documents you can create vs Quip or monday.com.

    Chose Dropbox Paper
    Dropbox Paper is very lightweight and cost-effective compared to competitors. Implementation is straightforward and their support is fast and effective. They have better document management, sharing, and organising capabilities however, their UI and experience are not as good …

    When collaborating with a team on content creation with the purpose of bringing multiple inputs in a nonstructured or nonfixed media type, this is a great choice because of its diversity of content and collaboration tools, however, if you are looking to have high flexibility in a particular content creation stream, for example, sophisticated text editing or presentation, there are a lot of strong competitors out there.

    Well, they are suited. 1. We use it as an effective way of collaboration between teams. 2. Can be used as an online spreadsheet. 3. It helps in accessing the data by multiple teams hassle-free. 4. Can customize the action, like editing or locking the spreadsheet to the other users based on the business need. Less Suited/inappropriate: 1. The UI is very much outdated. 2. The number of rows to be added to the spreadsheet has limitations. & We have to create a new Quip every now & then once the row limits are reached. 3. Can't do a detailed analysis like pivots tables etc. 4. Other functions like sort & filter options in Quip are not so user-friendly, unlike other spreadsheets out there in the market.

    Pros
    Dropbox
    • With Dropbox Paper, I can insert images and videos into your document, to make the document more visual, which is helpful for creating newsletters and simple flyers.
    • Once you create a document, you can save it as a template to be reused as a starting point for creating new documents.
    • Dropbox Paper has some basic formatting features like bolding text, adding links, and creating H1 and H2 headings.
    • You can insert tables into your Dropbox Paper document
    • Dropbox Paper also has an unusual but helpful feature, and that is the time line feature.

    • Our experience with Quip has been nothing short of astounding; I love everything about this collaboration tool.
    • I love that it is cross-platform and works so well on mobile devices; it makes it unhindered to make progress on to-dos, take notes, export spreadsheets and documents, and have all my information organized within one environment.
    • I also love that it notifies me when someone has done something in shared documents and the incredible ease of linking documents in chats.
    • Quip's user interface is friendly and comfortably navigable; it feels right.

    Cons

    • No spell check feature.
    • No going back to "old versions" once changes are made they are permanent, with no restriction setting or ability to see previous versions.

    • When using Quip Desktop, it can be slow to update with content from other users
    • I think it would be cool to have a PDF proofing system integrated into Quip. Once copy has gone to design, we are basically done using Quip - I'd like to bring that all together within Quip
    • Multi -select and group export of documents would be helpful

    It is the best collaboration tool in my company. Through it, the organization has achieved better connectivity and efficiency in its communication. Primarily, the docs feature of this software is the most utilized in the company. Slowly, dash-boarding and project management features have also been utilized. Generally, it is the best tool, very easy and fairly streamlined

    I have never used Quip's support. To be fair, we hired someone who used to work for Quip before working at our company, and he implemented it and pushed it with the team. He was very biased toward the product, and yes it was better than Google Drive, but by how much?

    I was not part of the decision making to acquire the Dropbox tool against any of the other options and competitors. However, I can assume that the fact that we have been using Dropbox File Management for many years and many important files are stored and shared in the tool everyday, the adding of Dropbox Paper should have been felt very natural.

    Google Drive is an obvious choice for a collaboration suite, but it still has this old-fashioned Windows 95 feel to it, with the standard file system hierarchy and spread-sheet like lists of files. Quip has a fresh take on the user interface, and the comments and discussion on a given file or line within a file seems more integrated and seamless, rather than a bunch of boxes out in the margin away from where you're actually reading and working. Having everything just to the left of a list or paragraph makes it easier to focus and maintain context while you're working or discussing a certain point.

    Return on Investment
    Dropbox
    • Dropbox Paper has allowed all of our employees to be much more productive and on track even when we can't be in the office, which from a management standpoint is a huge positive impact. They know that productivity isn't slowing or lacking when everyone isn't actually sitting in the office under their watchful eye.
    • It has had a huge impact on our turn around time and speed of getting more work and projects completed. The more work you can effectively get done in a time period means more money for the bottom line.
    • It has made the majority of our team members more accountable and reliable when they know everyone is working together on something and each person has their own checklist of items to complete. It is especially helpful that everyone can see the same checklist, so everyone knows what each other is accomplishing.

    • Quip allowed collaboration and communication between Salesforce team and the rest of IT as well as business users.
    • Quip allowed collaboration on documents that was very interactive and helpful to the creation process.
    • Quip frustrated us because we had so many documents that we already had but they did not work well inside of Quip.
