Dropbox Business: features, pricing and who it fits
Dropbox Business pools storage across a team, with Standard open to a single user at a 3 TB start and Advanced adding 15 TB. Restore windows run 180 days on Standard and a year on Advanced. SCIM and a full audit-log plan matrix were not confirmed.
Who Dropbox Business is for
Best for
- Small teams (Standard is available from 1 user) wanting simple sync and sharing
- Teams needing SSO and E2E encryption on a mid-priced plan (Advanced, 3 seats min)
Look elsewhere if
- Teams needing per-user storage quotas (storage is pooled per team)
- Buyers needing SCIM or a published audit-log plan matrix: not confirmed on public pages
