Dropbox to add native G Suite integration in new partnership with Google

General News

Summary

It’s been an eventful week for Dropbox coming off its announcement last Friday that it was finally going public , but that doesn’t mean the business stops.The company announced plans to partner with Google today to bring native G Suite integration to Dropbox storage.The fact is that more than 50 percent of Dropbox users have a G Suite account — which includes GMail along with Google Drive, Docs, Sheets and Slides.That has required a Google Drive account, but customer requirements can sometimes make for strange bedfellows and Dropbox and Google have been working together to bring this integration to fruition because it’s something both companies’ customers have been asking for, Quentin Clark, SVP of Engineering, Product and Design at Dropbox explained.Clark, who has had past stints at Microsoft and SAP, says that he has learned over time that it’s incumbent upon vendors like Dropbox to focus on the needs of the users over the needs of the company.
