Is there a cheaper plan than the Plus plan, that offers more space?

my question is:

 

Is there any plan that is even cheaper than the normal basic plan of 2000 tb? It happens that I want to have more storage space, but the cheapest plan is still quite expensive.

 

Is there an alternative storage plan, which is cheaper?

    Dear Dropbox,

    Please give some affordable space to users who can able be able to pay. If you are giving 2TB for nearly $120 per year if paid once will not be affordable and most of them will not Upgrade. Instead you can give 50-100GB with $10 per year, then lots of people can Use and Upgrade the Dropbox plan. This is my idea to improve your Business.

    As the subject says, I wish Dropbox would offer a cheaper plan for less storage.

    I've been managing alright on a few gigabytes of storage for many years. I just don't need 2TB of cloud storage.

    I really like Dropbox and wouldn't mind paying monthly for it if I didn't feel like I would be mainly paying for a bunch of storage to just sit empty.

    I would also be ok with a higher price per gigabyte if it meant a lower monthly cost e.g. 4€ for 250GB.

    I love Dropbox's block-level synchronization, but I hate the drastic change from 2GB (free)  to 2TB (plus). 

    I think more people would purchase a lower option than the 2TB. I just want 100GB - 250GB without having to pay 120$ a year.

    Dropbox plan 5GB single user

     

    It is ridiculous that there is not a dropbox plan for people that work alone with 5GB!

    No I need to buy 3 subscriptions but I work alone! Im not paying that money and not buying that plan and now try to find another solution with another company to store my data

    Good morning.

    With regards to the Drop Box purchase options, if I am correct, there is the 2GB and then the purchase options start at 2000GB, which is a little pricy.

    There should be a purchase option too of 1000GB.  Looking into this option, will also be a good thing, I think.  It's just a suggestion 🙂

      I have 4TB now and would just need 1TB more

      so it doesn't work

      No dropbox has send me an email to add a top up of 1TB but this whole link doesn't work and get directed to buying the 5TB for a min of 3 users!

      what is this for strange way of getting money out of people

    Dropbox can think of a plan starting with lower spaces say 250GB, 500GB, 1TB, etc. 

    That is suitable for small and medium enterprises.

      My suggestion is that Dropbox should provide storage smaller than 2 TB such as 500 GB, 200 GB, 128 GB or even better 50 GB because most users only store normal photos and do not store large documents, and the rest of the storage is not used because it is too large.


      that's all from me

      You should have a plan for 4 or 8GB at $5 a month and then I'd do it.  As it is now, I'll move some files onto my computer.

      As I feel, there should be a smaller amount plan for people of India subcontinent. Though people can pay u people life long.

    Hi there NOUTROK , thank you for your inquiry.

    Just to clarify, the Basic plan, is our free plan, and comes with 2 GB of space.

     

    You are referring to our Plus plan, that offers 2 TB of space.

     

    I am afraid that, there is no plan, that offers more space, at a lower price, at the moment.

     

    You can see all our available plans here.

     

    Hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything else.
