Hello,

I'll leave this thread open for other users in case they want to share their own experiences as well.

I got great results with a product called Boxifier. It is Windows only (not sure if something similar exists for MacOS), but it is integrated with the Dropbox desktop app and I had a great customer support experience with them (which matters to me).

Hope this helps others,
