Working with multiple people on a document can be tricky since it can often be hard to keep track of what everybody is doing. This involves a lot of back and forth conversations which are usually spread across different platforms like email, chat windows and instant messenger conversations. Those who use Dropbox a lot for collaboration will appreciate the fact that Dropbox will now allow them to add comments on files stored with the cloud storage service.

Dropbox says that the addition of comments is going to simplify how people collaborate with others on documents. They will be able to have conversations around Dropbox files, both on the files that they own and the ones that have been shared with them. This feature will keep those conversations organized in one place and makes it much easier for users to gather feedback.

Anyone can be brought into the conversation in Dropbox by simply typing “@” followed by their name or email address. They’ll instantly receive an email notification even if they’re not using Dropbox, the email will contain a link to go to that particular file.

Turning off comments on a file that a user owns is very simple, they just need to go to the Options menu and click on “Turn off comments.”

This feature has been available to Dropbox for Business early access users for the past month, starting today it will be available to all Dropbox users.
