Can we have different plans / price points / data combinations / plan sizes?

Hi, I find limited in the choices of subscription plans. Basic/free and Pro/110$

I'd gladly pay something like 25$ a year for 50GB and a 2 users family plan.

Considering iCloud have a 12$ plan for 20 GB and 48$ for 200GB, that seems reasonable..

Yeah I completely agree with you. It looks like after years of this request DropBox has no intentions of lowering their price per month. I just moved on a couple weeks ago with my personal account and will likely be pulling our work team to another platform in November when we expire.

@Mark "I run two successful companies in the UK..... just because a user demands a set price point does not mean it needs to be accomodated. Ultimately if you miss price things the whole company fails. 

 

I'd love to drive a brand new Porsche but only want to be £25k. It is not bad salesmanship or customer service to say "no" and that if I want it I need to pay the correct price. They could however tell me to go and look at VW or Seat which may be more at my price point."

 

I completely agree with you, which is why after all these years I have finally moved on with my personal account and will likely do so with our business team when our current plan expires. I have another co-worker that has been pushing that for a while now with me and uses another platform with his team.

I started this thread some months ago-  it has accumulated 88 pages of responses, nearly all of them in favor of less expensive options for those who could get by just fine with a few hundred gigs of dropbox storage. I think we can now conclude that DROPBOX DOES NOT GIVE A FLYING **bleep** ABOUT US!!! It is also abundantly clear that no one at Dropbox even monitors this forum, they are leaving $millions in low-hanging fruit unharvested.- Hartstoc

I guess I did not start the thread as I’d remembered, but I posted this early on:

 

It may not be intentional, but I believe dropbox subscription plans  inherently discriminatory against poor people and, by extension within our current economy, racist. Many need dropbox storage to integrate with third party app requiements, but most would get by just fine with 50-100GB. That dropbox does not offer such a plan for a reasonable flat rate like $10-15 per year is damaging and highly offensive to these groups. Ironically, dropbox is leaving a LOT of potential revenue on the table due to the 1000-fold gap between the 2GB and 2TB options now a ailable.  Even as someone able to afford any subsription level, the thought of paying $120/year for 200 times more storage than I have any use for is offensive. Come on, Dropbox, it is time to add a 100GB+/- option for a more reasonable $10-15 per year. - Otis

A smaller storage plan would be nice. Especially for someone like myself who is retired and just needs a bit more storage than the basic plan. 2T is just to expensive when your retired.

Suggerisco di creare piani intermedi a costi inferiori.
Es. 100 gb a 1,99€ al mese.
2T per la maggior parte degli utenti credo siano eccessivi, quindi non utilizzati e il costo mensile troppo alto.

Hi, wouldn't it be awesome if Dropbox introduce 100/200 Gb monthly plans like Google Drive and Onedrive? 2Gb basic per month is too less and 1tb paid per month is too much for some

Hi

 

I feel that there is a big gap between my need and the smallest available dropbox plan. The smallest one is 2TB for €9.99 and I think thats to expensive. 

If there where an option with something like 100GB and 5 users for €2.99 for example. I believe that would be more acceptable among most people. 

I'd buy that plan imediatly if it was an option.

DROPBOX SHOULD OFFER SMALLER STORAGE PLANS ON A LOWER PRICE, AS MANY COMPETITOR OFFERS SMALLER PLANS, SUCH AS ICLOUD AND GOOGLE DRIVE. 

 

50 GB FOR 0,99 CENTS

(I WOULD SUBSCRIBE FOR SURE, NO QUESTION, BUT FOR 10 EUR, NOT REALLY...)

Thoroughly support this notion. I've moved through several cloud services and always come back to Dropbox because of its reliability, quality and the fact that it's cross platform (I use MS and Linux).

But as with other users - 2TB is way too big for me and I don't use a fraction of it even with uploading movies and so on.

I do believe that repricing this in a more competitive manner would give Dropbox the edge on Google Drive and others.
