If you use Dropbox on Mac, youve probably been frustrated with its app at some point.
If you chose the latter route, were here to help make the transition smooth.
Maestral
Maestralis a free, lightweight, and open-source Dropbox client for Mac.
It natively supports M1 Macs and will sync your files and folders with absolutely no fuss.
If youre technically inclined, you might use Maestral using the command line interface.
As good as Maestral is, its not for everyone because it does not support some Dropbox features.
It also lacks support for Dropbox Paper, managing Dropbox teams, or shared folder tweaks.
Mountain Ducks use of the context menu is one of its best features.
The app costs $39 and supports multiple cloud storage services, including Google Drive and OneDrive.
you’ve got the option to check out its features for free with a two-week trial.
Strongsync
Strongsyncis an app that lets you access multiple cloud storage services on your Mac.
Its a little heavier than Maestral, but much better than using Dropboxs official client.
Strongsync is made by the company that also makes ExpanDrive.
Transmit
PanicsTransmitis an excellent FTP app that also lets you access Dropbox.
Weve been using Transmit for file uploads and downloads for years, and its been rock solid throughout.
