![]() Alongside giving 2TB of storage, the plan brings a dedicated shared folder called Family Room where each member can share their files with other members. The cloud storage provider at that time said that it had plans to roll out the Dropbox Family plan more broadly throughout the year. The new development comes just over four months after Dropbox launched its family plan under beta testing for select users. Now, I just perceive this change as a very aggressive and hostile marketing move against a large loyal userbase - possibly motivated by an unjustified fear of losing some users at the 'Plus' subscription plan.Dropbox Family, a paid plan that allows up to six members to share a total of 2TB storage access, is now available globally. I think Dropbox marketing dropped the ball here in terms of underestimating how many loyal 'free users' were willing to jump onto a paid subscription service - had a more reasonable 'Basic' tier option been made available at the same time they implimented the change. I'm a free user with 15Gb, and currently using only using 5Gb. I don't have the data to back it up, so I'm gonna go on a hunch here and say that many other 'Free tier users' did the same ( Dropbox can probably confirm this by checking the number of hits they had on their pricing plan website shortly after news of this change was leaked) - regardless, the pricing plans currently on offer are overkill for what 'free users' enjoyed the past many years.įor Australian users, the first available pricing option is the 'Plus Plan' at $15.39, billed annually, and comes with 2TB. When Dropbox implemented the max 3 linked accounts limit, my first reaction was to look at what paid subscription options were available.
