The Gmail Addon is not an adequate replacement for the Chrome extension.
I use Dropbox in my law practice. My practice management software creates individual folders for each client and a subfolder beneath that for individual matters. I have hundreds of client folders.
With the extension, I could plug the first few letters of the client's last name in and easily pick from a list of conforming folders.
With the addon I am faced with an alphabetical listing of a limited number of folders. To get to names later in the alphabet, I have to page through a generated list of folders multiple times to get to the right page of folders.
So you replaced something that took seconds with something that takes minutes and is frankly unworkable. Not office user friendly in the least. No search bar. No file explorer window to select a folder.
To top it off, you didn't give a choice. Chrome extension is gone and the addon is what we get. Terrible.
Honestly, until it's fixed, I cannot use it. I am reduced to a cumbersome process of downloading files into a downloads folder, then viewing them in a folder and then dragging and dropping them into the right folder. Slow and tedious compared to the now-eliminated Chrome extension, but lightning fast compared to the Dropbox addon.
This needs to be fix
