Is there a way to centrally manage this for a group of users or maybe even better via group policy?

Hi @thocus

Welcome to the Dropbox Community. 

There is currently no way for a team to set up bandwidth caps for their users. 

You can post a feature request in our share an idea section if you wish. 

[EDIT] I merged your topic here. In this discussion, @Walter offers the steps to limit bandwidth usage of the Dropbox desktop app, per device. :gear:

Thank you!
