With a 300k File Limit - Does Dropbox Really Provide Business Solutions?
For many many years, I've been a Dropbox Pro member. During this time, they decided at some point, that 300,000 files is the maximum they will support. Now, I know what you are thinking. The ar...

I did not accept this as a solution (now fixed). It doesn't solve anything and is factually incorrect. At the time of your reply and this post, there is a baked in hard-limit in Dropbox that makes it unusable - and your support team refused to provide support to anyone with over 300K files. Nothing in your response you marked as the "answer" addresses this in any way shape or form. Wishing you had the answer isn't the same as providing one.
The right answer was moving to Google Drive and getting an actual business grade cloud based file sync solution in place.

OneDrive still limits max file size. It used to be 10GB (but now appears to be 250GB?). Also, didn't they drop their equivalent to Selective Sync?

OneDrive 250GB max single file size (I wonder what you are doing if you have files larger)
OneDrive does have Selective Sync >Settings>Account>Choose Folders
OneDrive does have Files on Demand >file explorer>select files>right click context menu>always keep on this device | free up space
Multiple OneDrive accounts can be enabled at once >Settings>Account>Add An Account
OneDrive is a Microsoft product that has good integration with Windows and excellent integration with Office.
When opening a Word document in your OneDrive MS Word see it is in the cloud and opens the Cloud instance of the file as well as the local instance, and updates both at once, this allows for Co-authoring of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files.
