Online storage and collaboration service Dropbox has officially launched its Dropbox for Business service, provising users with two different online storage compartments: one for personal use, and one for professional.

Initially launched as a beta service last November, Dropbox for Business now includes enterprise features such as the ability to remotely wipe folders from PCs and tablets.

"We did this to give admins more visibility and control over their company's data," Ilya Fushman, Dropbox Head of Product, Business and Mobile, wrote in an official blog post.

"Remote wipe helps protect confidential information, account transfer helps you maintain business continuity, and sharing audit logs let you track how your Dropbox for Business information is being accessed."

The company says it has more than 275 million users and over four million businesses.

The ability to transfer an account if someone leaves is another new feature, as is an  audit log sharing to keep track of how data is shared inside and outside of a company. Dropbox for Business requires at least five users, and the cost is $US15 per user every month.

A new initiative called Project Harmony adds collaborative features to Microsoft Office applications like Word, Excel or PowerPoint. Due out later in 2014, it promises to allow you to see who's editing a file, chat with other collaborators and synchronise documents. 

Finally, a new Mailbox for Android app has been unveiled, incorporating a new function to automate actions by learning a user's habits.
