    I think your deciding factor will be that you can't buy a single license on a business account. It's minimum three, so you'll be paying for two licenses that you aren't using.

    If Smart Sync is your main requirement, just go with Professional.

Hi Rich, thank you for your answer.

I forget I have another concern. I am a long time dropbox user and have an unlimited history (need to pay US$39 per year of course!)

 

If I upgrade to personal professional, will I lose this add-on of unlimited history?

Hey chuen55, 
 
If you’re on a Plus account that you’ve had for a while, you can keep the type of extended or unlimited version history feature when you upgrade to Professional! Keep in mind that if at any point your account is downgraded, the old version history option will be lost, and you’ll be subject to the new 120-day limit. If you keep your account current, there won’t be a problem :wink:
 
Cheers!
