I believe the differents are (Standard: €12) for each user, You have to buy 3 licences,So the standard one is 12x3=36 euros.
And de Profecional plan is for 1 user only.
Exactly as Richard Eltink states. Standard is a Business plan meant for a team of people and starts with a minimum of three users. Professional in an individual plan meant for one person.

Therefore,what do you think would be the best option for me?
Go for Professional? (and risk too high price)
Go for Plus (and risk too small storage)?

To clarify further:
I do not need collaboration,I am a sole user.
I do not need advanced sharing between users.I need the sheer size of the storage with online/offline access for syncing files between computer,laptop and phone.
And potentially later the ability to programatically access Dropbox's API,so that I can create my own application which makes use of Dropbox's sync abilities.
I often perform mass-edits with my data,resulting in tens of thousands of changes within a few dozens of seconds. Only Dropbox was able to outperform my mass-data-managing scripts.

It is easy enough to upgrade between plans so you could always go with Plus and then if needed upgrade to Pro.
Its a bit more difficult to go down as you need to wait until your payment for the plan has finished before it will change.

Can you please tell me how the process looks like?
I have never paid in any other way thatn in cash.
