Subscription

I have a client that wants to share his folders on Dropbox, but I can't open it because I'm signing on with a free plan.  If 2 or more companies want to share the same folder and location on Dropbox, does everyone have to pay for a subscription for enough data?  Seems like only the original party that's sharing the folder would need the subscription.

 

Thank you,  Sidona

  • Yes, Dropbox upgrades in quota only benefit that one person and not anybody else. 

     

    The exception to this is for Business Accounts where everybody uses up a paid licence.
