Plans and Subscriptions
Ask the Dropbox Community for help if you have questions about your Dropbox plan or subscription. Find solutions and share advice with members.
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?
Hi @meks, thanks for joining the Community!
Could you let me know more about what you're describing, in order for other voters to understand your suggestion?
Are you referring to paying for the amount of data you're storing on your account? If so, how would this be priced in your opinion in terms of billing cycle and cost?
This will help me to assist further!

Yes, I've been really frustrated that Dropbox's least expensive plan is $120 per year. I don't need 2 TB, and I definitely won't spend $120. Meanwhile, Google One offers 200 GB for $30 per year. Now THAT's something interesting, even though I'm not fond of the user experience with GoogleDrive. You can also get significant amounts of data, but fully end-to-end encrypted, with iDrive for much less than $120 per year. Again, I don't love their UI and the feature set is missing a couple fundamental things. But there's just no way I'm paying $120 per year.
Dropbox, when are you going to offer a decent plan for common folks...something like Google's 200 GB for $30 per year, and maybe some higher level for $50 or $60 per year (and allowing us to log in to the Dropbox application on more than the ridiculous 3 devices allowed by the free plan)???? C'mon, you're just being jerks at this point.
If some people need 2 TB, I admit $120 per year isn't a bad price. But so many of us DON'T need THAT much space, and also can't afford that price. So let's get real here.
If your account is eligible, there is the Basic Extra plan available for purchase.

Says I'm not currently eligible.
Now what?
Good afternoon.
I have the basic plan currently. I have enough storage with this plan, however I would like to use with more than 3 devices.
The dropbox plus is out of my budget plus I do not need 2TB of storage.
Is there an option/plan with access to more devices at a more reasonable price?

There isn't another plan, but you could subscribe to Plus for a month, add your other devices and then downgrade back to Basic. As long as you don't disconnect them, they will continue to sync.
