Is Dropbox good for delivering videos to clients?
Dropbox is a reliable place to store video, but it is a poor way to deliver it. Clients receive a folder listing with a small compressed preview, no branding, and a download experience designed for files rather than films.

The problems are consistent. Previews are limited in length and quality, so a client's first impression of your 4K master is a soft, stuttering thumbnail. Large downloads are zipped and frequently fail. Shared links look like everyone else's shared links, and there is no sense that a studio produced the work. Storage is also expensive once you are keeping several terabytes of deliverables live.
None of this is Dropbox doing anything wrong; it is simply not a delivery product.
DLVRD is. Your client opens a branded gallery, streams the film instantly at high quality, downloads the exact original, and never sees a folder. You get passwords, expiry, download notifications, and archive storage for finished work.
