Please allow pairing of more than two accounts.

Please allow pairing of more than two accounts. As a contractor, I am a member of a company's business account, a team member of another company, and have my personal account. It is frustrating to only be able to pair two of them, so that when I need to access the third, I have to completely sign out of the others and sign in fresh for the third.

Thank you for sharing your idea.

We have looked into this, but it is not something we are actively working on at this time. 

We regularly review these ideas, and we will keep you updated if this idea moves forward in the future.

Hey Yall, Dropbox won't allow this unless we make some noise. Please get more people to come here and vote. Like A LOT more people.

Thanks

I totally agree this is a BASIC function for all of us subscribed not only to a “premium” plan but, in most of the cases in this post, we are all in professional plans.  I’m currently paying for 3 licenses with a Team plan because I work with very big files for various clients and I need to keep outtakes and archives etc and this is mainly because I can’t split accordingly in the accounts that should be. So I’m basically paying for licensed im not using, so I can offer my clients solutions I wouldn’t be able without it

I work on multiple teams and am a member of two business/paid dropbox accounts. Currently, I can only have one of them synced/accessible in my windows explorer and synced to my computer. In today's world of networking across multiple teams, this seems archaic. Please consider removing this limitation and allowing multiple paid business accounts to co-exist on one computer.

I'm currently a member of one team for a company where I am COO, and my own company has a  Dropbox account, where I'm forced to use the Family plan... where I've maxxed out users.

I would like the option to have more than one Business Account 

OR

Add another user to a plan (ANY PLAN) beyond the limit shown with a per-user fee. 

The only limit here is the billing, really. Why not make this happen? I switch between the two companies and Dropbox accounts multiple times each day and cannot log in and out of Dropbox all day long, nor will it synch folders I need access to with multiple business accounts as it currently works. This is so frustrating! Please fix. DEAR GOD just let me pay you more!

Hey @MusetheFirst, thanks for reaching out to us.

Can you please clarify your request a bit?

Are you looking to be able to link more than one Business team account to your Dropbox desktop app?

Or to be able to access more than one Business account using the same login info?

Any additional info would be really helpful.

Thanks.

Happy to! In answer to "Are you looking to be able to link more than one Business team account to your Dropbox desktop app?" it's a resounding YES.

I have one team account with one login, and a personal account with another login. The two are linked in all places--PC app, laptop app, mobile app--so I can switch back and forth between the two accounts easily. But each has its own sign-in initially. 

What I would like to have is a second Business account instead of using my personal account. The personal account is limited to a Family plan with 6 members and 2TB storage. I currently hired someone new, so I had to remove someone from our plan. It was either that or try and move everything to another service. Or fire someone. And we're growing. Neither are great options. 

This also does not let me have a personal account. All my personal items are being added to the personal account...which means I have to monitor who has access in my business to them. 

I really don't care if I need a third login for the third account, so long as I can switch between them all easily. OR if I could just add more users to the Family plan I can continue limping along doing what we're doing now, but let everyone in my company participate. No one likes to be kicked out of the accounts, no matter the reason. 

I hope this helps! Thank you for taking an interest in the issue.

Thanks for the follow-up, @MusetheFirst!

I moved your idea to this relevant one, which you can up-vote, to show your support.

I hope this helps!

@MusetheFirst

the only way to make this happen is to share this thread, spread this link around, and have many other users vote here. It is not so simple for them to implement this, so our only hope is to get lots and lots of votes to make some noise internally at DB. Thanks

Stop deluding yourself, they are not going to do this because they either cant or don't want to.

And as for how hard it is, It would be piss easy, multiple copies of dropbox can run now to cover multiple accounts you just have to sign them in with different user profiles, so just a case of managing the source data into one account.

@AlignAdmin 

They don't want to do it, but certainly will look into it more seriously if there is demand.

2 Business accounts create issues of security I was told, that are not so simple to resolve.

But either way, it does not matter if it is hard or easy. What matters is that 35 people want it, it is not a feature worth looking into it yet. 

Take it easy
