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..

Hey @frairo1076,

Just to note, I've merged your post here so we can keep all relevant info in one place. While we don't currently offer a plan smaller than Dropbox Plus, you can always earn more space on a free account with the steps outlined here.

I hope this helps - Thanks!

Back in January when I was due for renewal I decided that the cost keeps going up and up and while you are giving more space, as a personal account, I do not need more than 500GB.  I went down to free/basic and used what extra I had but it was not enough space.  I was not going to pay your high prices for tons of space I would never use and you had responded saying you were not going to create any plans with smaller space.  With all the posts here, it is obvious you are not listening to your users and providing what is being requested.  I have moved on.  I'm am now with pCloud with 500GB at only $47.88/yr.  This is what I was looking for.  After 8 years with Dropbox, I was hoping to stay with you but you forced me to look elsewhere.  Maybe if everybody here posted who they have been forced to go with, you might see just how much business your loosing.  I get it, charge high, offer alot.  It never gets fully used and you make money.  But just think about how every $50.00 spent elsewhere is $50 less you're getting.  I will return if you offer a smaller package.  That's guaranteed.  I'll keep watching and waiting.  Until then, pCloud is getting my money.

Not sure if this is quite the right place to post but if it's work in progress... I have been an active user on Dropbox for the past few years and love using it but I just can't justify spending over $100 per year on space I don't need. I think it should be considered having at least one or two options in between 2GB and the changing to 2TB. That is a HUGE difference in space. While I have over 15GB of files I certainly don't need 2TB of space. I am having to switch to something cheaper like One Drive to accommodate my bank account. I am certain there are many people out there that have the same thoughts. What are the odds that something may change in the near future? With the new 2TB and $119 per year fee I am canceling my subscription at the end of this month. It's a shame because I really prefer using Dropbox.

Hi Lusil,

It is reassuring to know that the Dropbox team will at least consider the request for a plan with less space for a lower price than the 2TB plan.  What puzzles me is why Dropbox is basically saying they don't want customers with limited space requirements.  Those of us in that group are happy to pay for Dropbox, so why not a scaled back plan?

My fingers are crossed that the management will reconsider.

Thank you.

John

Hello! I need more space, but not as much as 2TB that you're offering for $9.99/month. How about offering a more sustainable 200GB allowance? I could afford paying $15 per year for that one.

So, can we have a reply now from Dropbox company? The suggestions for smaller allowances like 200GB up had been coming for a while now. Do you have anything to offer in line with these suggestions?

Please, bring smaller plan and cheaper prices. All I need 10 gb per year, and I am paying 2tb because there is no better options, and this plan is really expensive.

I love dropbox. It just works. All the time. I've never had a probelm with it working. So imagine my dissappointment with only being offered the follwoing choices: You can pick the free option ( I currently have about 11gb) or you can have 2TB. WHY?! Is it just me, or does it seem like there should be a few more tiers to choose from? I do not need or want 2TB. Therefore, I have not upgraded. I am willing to upgrade, but give me an option that a actually fits my reality. It feels a little like having a little 16 ft boat that works for most of your needs. You want to upgrade because of the limitations, so you go to the boat store. All they have to offer is a cruise ship. I don't get it. I propose offering a middle of the road option to consumers like me. thanks
