Users in their 20s and 30s long for a space where they can organize and store files to collaborate seamlessly with social channels.
Between Facebook Groups, WhatsApp groups, Slack channels and email lists, there are many files to be shared and ideas to brainstorm with each other.
Sometimes a real-time whiteboard session is called for, and generous storage space would make a big difference.
