Hello,
I'm looking for services that allows people to collaborate by
sharing/uploading/downloading files online securely.
I could setup SFTP in a server somewhere but I prefer to pay for
something that won't require monitoring and maintenance on my part. It
also needs to be easy to use for non-techies + built in backups & user
file access controls would be nice (some type of admin interface)
Those are the two services that I have found interesting so far.

Have anyone used dropbox?
Thanks!

I have been using Dropbox for a while now. It works quite well and you
even get history of file versions. I haven't done any multi-writer
sharing, so not sure how that works, but the public read access works
fine and the integration with Nautilus is clean.
As Mike said, the security is questionable, but depending on your
requirements, may be adequate.
Also Ubuntu One is free with 2G and similar to Dropbox:
