Family plan is too expensive for what it offers
While I would like to have the ability for my wife and I to share a combined account with our own individual logins - it's not worth the extra $80/year, almost doubling the cost for only a limited i...

Upgrading 6 separate accounts to Plus would cost more than one Family plan, although they each would have full access to their own 2 TB of quota, separate from one another.
For families that might not require full usage of the quota, then the Family plan would be useful in this instance to share quota without purchasing individual plans.
We appreciate your feedback on the Dropbox Family plan!
Agreed with all comments. I have been tempted to get Dropbox Family Plan but it is simply too costly for what it offers compared with Dropbox Plus. Same space, just different users sharing it and little else. In a family, it is normal that the parent shares his/her 2TB account so added value for Dropbox Family is currently low. If you want to get customers you should consider an increase of +2 USD/m for 2TB (same space) - 4 users; or +4 USD/m for 3 TB - 5 users; or +6 USD/m for 4TB - 6 users with a 20% reduction on yearly payment.
My 2 cents!
