    Hello,

    The 5 user Teams subscription is not affordable for us as we only need two users.
    I guess there is nothing left to do but consider Sharepoint / OneDrive so we can scale up and share affordably.

    It's only $10 per extra TB, and some of the subscriptions have unlimited storage.
    Thank you for the reply.

Hello, I only need two members.  The minimum is three users.  Its not worth it to increase my bill from $360 a year to $540 a year.  Its already too much and considering alternatives.  Can I add a gig or two of extra space to my DropBox One account?  Does it allow multiple users, to sign in with different email address and selective sharing.

Hi Rick C.21, currently, it isn't possible to increase the quota on a Dropbox One account. 

 

It is a personal account, so sharing the account credentials with another user would be a breach of the terms of service, and could result in account termination.

      Are you aware that the minimum number of licenses that are needed for a Dropbox Business team to be purchased is 3 licenses, not 5?
