iCloud offers one benefit over this, which is iCloud allows record-level syncing (for SQLite databases using CoreData).
Dropbox is file-level syncing. So if you have a database app managing many records in tables, Dropbox will sync the entire database when even a single record changes. iCloud would only sync the record(s) than changed.
