I need multiple drop box teams for different customers. It is not practical for everyone to create multiple e-mail addresses for each dropbox. Is there a solution for one person to be on different teams without having multiple e-mail addresses?

Please create a feature where one can sync multiple business accounts. Just as you did with the personal/ business accoint combination. Please add possibility to add more than just one business account. Many people nowadays work for different companies and need to access different dropbox business accounts.

We need the ability to sync multiple business accounts to a workstation. I have multiple dropbox accounts, and the inability to do so makes dropbox hard to use.

Hi there, currently it’s not possible to have multiple Dropbox Business accounts syncing at the same time, only a connected Personal and Business account can do this.
 
However, you could technically have different computer logins or profiles, and on each one have a different Dropbox Business account logged into the desktop app. This will allow them to sync to the machine under those profiles.
 
Bear in mind though, that it won’t be syncing on the other computer profiles as they’ll be logged out, so you’ll need to switch computer login for each Dropbox account to sync completely.
 
Hopefully this might help you out, depending on your circumstances.

That's the problem, logging in and out of profile is the problem (particular with software licenses). I'm a contractor with multiple business accounts and am requesting for a feature to allow the syncing to one profile of multiple business accounts.

Desparately needed feature. I use Dropbox only because clients use Dropbox; I find the interface and website/app logic confusing and illogical. Totally annoying to use.

Hey there (@Andsampson), sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. If you don’t mind me asking, can you let me know just a bit more info about what appears frustrating while browsing on our website? I’d happily shed a bit of light if I can!

@Jane The website is unusable if you're using dropbox as a repository for developing software (i.e. Unreal Engine). The inability to sync multiple business accounts creates a problem for developers. Especially if you're part of multiple organizations, and the businesses are unwilling to connect dropbox to your personal account or any other account other than their company email.
