I'm using a Professional plan. Do I have another option to upgrade, other than a Business one?
Hi folks,
I'm using Dropbox Professional, with 3TB worth of space that I'm told is almost used up.
Unless I'm mistaken, I don't have the option of simply adding another one or more terabytes of space to give me more room.
It seems I have no alternative to jump up to a Business account, but I'm a team of just one person and don't want to add more users.
Do I have to pay for three users on a Business account even if there's only one active user (me), or can I still fly solo but have all the extra storage such accounts provide>?
Thanks

Business accounts start with a minimum of three licenses. You don't have to use all of them, but you can't start a business subscription with less than three.

Everyone needs 4TB minimum now, that's a Mac Studio.
That's a small business use sorted, then there's personal storage as well like 1TB of music if you don't want to use the likes of Spotify & Apple Music (via iTunes). WHat about personal images and videos!? Add another 1TB. Now, if you are a business like I am as a Graphic Designer and Logo Designer with big needs, I need at least 5TB minimum! Do something Dropbox before I go back to SugarSync! I am only sticking around to see here to see if you actually care and do something with this community thread about getting more tham 3TB on a one user personal account... Ruzzle Fruzzle!
