Dropbox Replay: the best Frame.io alternative you’ve been waiting for

Dropbox Replay offers rich media watermarking on all paid plans, while Frame.io only allows users on their Enterprise plan to add watermarks. With dynamic watermarking, you no longer need to worry about your work leaking. Automatically burn the recipient’s email, IP address and date and time of opening onto any of your shared files. In the unfortunate event that your work gets leaked, watermarking will allow you to instantly identify who's responsible.

Unlike Frame.io, Dropbox Replay will automatically transcribe your uploaded edits with support for 23 languages. This allows distributed, global reviewers to display captions that aid the review process. Transcripts can also be used to navigate quickly and find specific quotes or mentions of a subject, reducing the need for reviewers to manually scrub through the video multiple times.

Video and rich media projects require a lot of storage space. With a Dropbox account, you’ll get access to both Replay and expandable cloud storage for all of your creative projects. What’s more, fast file syncing means changes to large project files are quickly accessible across team members and devices – perfect for collaboration.

Replay includes large file transfer powered by Dropbox Transfer, allowing teams to deliver up to 250 GB of files to anyone via a download link. For those wanting to make a lasting impression, download pages can be custom branded to add a professional touch to the project delivery experience.
