Will it work with Google Apps SSO? Wasn't mentioned in the blog post.

If you're using a SAML Identity Provider to login to your Google Apps environment, then, yes, it should work with your current IdP.

“Dropbox is used in 95% of the Fortune 500”.

I wonder what percentage of those officially allow their employees to use it though. A lot lower I bet.

Do many folks here use Dropbox for large(r) scale collaboration (i.e. 100 or 10,000 users)?

I find folders work okay for myself and maybe up to 5 people but as the number of documents and collaborators goes higher than that it seems like it'd be really frustrating.

Unless the "search" is significantly better for business users.

I use it for an org with anywhere between 25 and 50 using it at any one time, assuming that you spend a bit of time organizing the folder structure at the beginning it's not a major issue but it does require staff discipline to keep it organized. It doesn't beat a dedicated Document Management system but it strikes a nice balance for working on frequently updated files.

Thanks. Glad to know it's possible :)
