Best fit for Frooty: Any team reviewing with external clients or mixed storage - where Replay's add-on + seat math breaks.
A limited Replay version is included with Dropbox plans (caps apply). Full Replay is a paid add-on: $10 per user/month annual or $12 monthly, and it requires a Plus-or-higher Dropbox plan. Review-only teams end up paying for storage seats they don't need.
Replay is a commenting layer on Dropbox storage: basic approvals, thin NLE integrations, no structured review rounds or formal approval record, and it only works inside Dropbox storage. Client-heavy teams outgrow it once disputes or versions pile up.
Switch when reviewers live outside Dropbox, when you need a dispute-ready approval trail, or when per-seat add-on math exceeds a flat review platform. Frooty is storage-agnostic (S3/R2/Drive/Dropbox), reviewers are free, and every sign-off is documented.
