Why Dropbox? Of all the cloud based programs, the easiest to use and connect to is Dropbox. Plus, Dropbox promotes that they are extremely user-friendly. I wanted to see if some of the programs were friendlier than others. Dropbox logo copyright Dropbox inc.

Testing the efficiency stock Photo http: //www. freestockphoto s. biz/stockphoto/17120 I placed each computer at an equal distance from the Router and tested the speeds before attempting the upload/download of the file. I ran three tests per device and measured the upload/download times, and then averaged them out.

Internet speed The current internet speed perceived by the device at the time of the test. Internet PC MAC IPAD IPHONE ONLINE via PC UPLOAD SPEED 1. 90 Mbps 1. 89 Mbps 1. 91 Mbps 1. 90 Mbps 1. 92 Mbps 4. 97 Mbps 9. 94 Mbps 9. 49 Mbps 11. 43 Mbps DOWNLOAD SPEED 5. 96 Mbps

Avg. Time I began testing to see which application used Dropbox the most efficiently via downloading and uploading Time taken to upload and download a 4. 7 mb Gif to Dropbox PC MAC IPAD IPHONE ONLINE via PC UPLOAD 9. 06 sec. 6. 03 sec. 20. 83 sec. 23. 15 sec. 23. 28 sec.

Average mb/s on Dropbox I took the size of the picture and the amount of time taken, and divided MB/s taken to upload/download to see which was most efficient. Estimated ONLINE via PC MAC IPAD IPHONE UPLOAD 0. 52 Mbps 0. 78 Mbps 0. 23 Mbps 0. 20 Mbps DOWNLOAD 3. 76 Mbps 4. 56 Mbps 4. 65 Mbps 2. 68 Mbps 0. 76 Mbps Dropbox MB/s PC

Analysis Stock Photo http: //www. pacificnwpilates. com/pnwpblog/athletic-conditioning/pilates-for-dancers-athleteseveryone-part-3 From the averaged scores, I was able to note that byfar, Mac was the fastest for uploading speeds at. 78 mb/s, and i. Pad was quickest for downloading at 4. 65 MB/s.

Conclusion While some variations could have been caused by the age of the products tested, and the type of processing speed within the platform, I believe that the results were understandably correct. Stock photo: http: //l. rgbimg. com/cache 1 nu. P 6 C/users/c/co/c obrasoft/600/me. Zah. IG. jpg
