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

[NOUTROK]

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?

HubiC offer 10Euros/year only for 100GB Storage space,...

But as far as I know their sync apps was unstable that's why I still choose dropbox,...

I would like to buy yearly package 10EUR/year even with only 50GB from dropbox.

But as far as I know their sync apps was unstable that's why I still choose dropbox,...

Which also proves the point totally. Stability in development etc. costs time and money.

I don't get it why the don't want my money... 

They do. Hence they have a product you can purchase. They, however, set the price they want which is €99per year. You dont have to pay that, however. Its up to you. 

Same as me saying I dont get why Porsche dont want me £12,000.

I want a new Xbox One Elite at 200. I don't get it why Microsoft don't want my money...

My reasonable price is less than $2.99/m for 2TB, only with this price that I will decide to pay. For me, dropbox is just like an external hard disk use to backup data. Although it has share function, but you can always find an alternative method to share your data. So the sharing function can be ignored. And some extra "awesome" funcstions are even useless to many users. I can buy an 2TB external hardisk around $100 and use them for many years. Even more, the 2TB is not an extra storage, it will also use your computer storage.

So, I will consider dropbox is an external hard disk which can use for 3 years. So, three years to pay $2.99*12*3=$107.64 for a 2TB storage is very reasonable.

I think most of the users want dropbox as an backup space. So you should offer a basic plan at $2.99/m just include basic function. If you really want to charge higher price, please charge those who want external service (e.g. large volume sharing, extra security, etc). I am sure many of user will pay for that and will definitely increase your revenue.

So. You want double the current Pro space for 30% of the current price?

So, three years to pay $2.99*12*3=$107.64 for a 2TB storage is very reasonable.

For a hard drive that does nothing. Yes. But you've totally and utterly missed the fact that your hard drive is a) in one place or b) has to be carried around. Dropbox doesnt.

Its like comparing a shared bicycle scheme in a city centre to a chauffeur driven limousine. 

I think most of the users want dropbox as an backup space

No. No. No.

Dropbox is NOT a backup tool - its AWFUL at backups. Dont use it for that. Dont try and force it to do things its not designed or implemented to do or you'll regret it.

First time here, but I have been using DB for about 3 years now.  I have my phones/tablet set to auto upload (Drop-Sync Pro) my images etc. off each device at night time.  I have really loved DB.  BUT .... Apparently, TWO YEARS ago (like I can remember that), I got 48GB  of space because I purchased a Samsung Phone.  I just got an email didn't I?  Telling me that I am about to lose that space unless if pay AUD $139/year for DB Pro!!   I am utterly disappointed in this as I have got my mum and friends on the DB cause I love it.  Now I am 22.7 GB's over what will be my new limit. I am sorry but as a Single working mum, that premium is far too high for this service.  So, I feel I will have no choice but to leave DB and find a suitable alternative.  $99US is not too bad but with the Australian Dollar and all, it is too prohibitive for me.  In fact .... I have a Microsoft Office 365 Account which I pay a yearly subscription for and that is HEAPS cheaper than a yearly subscription for DBPro!!!  

Edited to add: I have just done some online searching for alternatives to DB and am looking at iDrive Personal Pro.  $60/year (1TB) to do everything that DB does and more, to me, is a more affordable option.  Unless DB want to remain competitive and offer the same deal for the same price?  Balls in your court DB.  I would prefer to stay with you but not for $139/Year.

2nd Edit: (sorry).  Too many reviews are scathing of iDrive, but to my utter delight I have just realised that I purchase an Office 365 Subscription each year for me and my school aged children.  We get the MS Pro suite of products for 5 persons per year PLUS because I have a 365 Subscription I also get 1TB storage automatically!!  Yeah baby!  That costs me AUD $119/year.  More bang for my buck!

Couldn't agree more with Jim M and Kim G.1. That's exactly what I think about it

Dropbox has trialed lower cost plans many times over the years, and they have never been financially feasible. I wouldn't count on this ever happening.

With Google now offering 2TB for $9.99 a month - I think DB's days are numbered if they are so stubborn not to reduce prices.

Even the 100GB offering is so cheap now it's pennies.
