Hello,
I'm a graphic designer with over 15 years of workload. This obviously equates to extreme files sizes. I was disappointed to learn Dropbox don't offer a package for single users over 3TB....
shinbeth You bring up that point a lot but I'm sorry it's not a strong one. Dropbox was never designed as a "backup my computer" service. So your use case is fringe. Dropbox was designed as a collaborative cloud storage and sharing platform.
We are all on this thread because we want larger storage plans from Dropbox. It is quite obvious, after all these years, that Dropbox cannot profitably or affordably offer large bulk storage plans at a price most of us would be willing to pay and still make money at it. If so, they'd have done it. Probably because they've done their homework and found that high storage users tend to also drive lots of bandwidth (transfers) consumption. Parking data is cheap, moving it across bandwidth is a much larger expense and drives higher compute cost as well. They make the most money on inactive accounts and that subsidizes the rest of us.
If you follow the news, Dropbox just laid off 528 staffers, or 20% of it's workforce. CEO Drew Houston has stated that their core business has matured. (that's code for it's not growing anymore, and this is a growth-fueled enterprise). With stagnant growth, they are looking to pivot the business model and find growth elsewhere. The core product will continue to exist, but don't expect it to improve much and I would also expect costs to rise.
