If you're concerned about versioning, it might make sense to upgrade the Plus plan to Extended Version History, and simply buy one plan for each team member. Instead, you really have two choices: the Plus plan for each of your team members, or the Advanced plan. But as soon as you increase your team size, or your documents grow, you're going to outgrow the 2017 Dropbox Business Standard plan.
If your company relies mostly on text-based documents, and you have very few team members, it might work. The new Dropbox Business Standard plan is, in my humble opinion, nearly valueless for all but those who store very little data. But there's no way, even with my small two-person family operation, that we could use Dropbox for all our storage needs.
I rely on my Plus account to keep all my main work-a-day document files in sync, and it works well. In the case of Dropbox, the actual technological solution is still quite viable. But if you have a lot to store, you run into both transmission time limitations and what I call the "cloud storage ceiling". If your needs are minimal, it's a great idea. one of the familyĬloud storage is turning out to be a mixed bet. Because neither Dropbox for Business plan will go back in time that far for you. If you're using the Business Standard or Advanced plan and you need to go back 121 days, you better have a DeLorean.
I reached out to a Dropbox rep through chat and asked if it would be possible to upgrade the business account to what's called the "Extended Version History" option in the individual Plus plan. The 2017 Dropbox for Business Standard plan, and the new Advanced plan, both only provide 120 days of file recovery. Last year's Business Plan listed versioning as "unlimited file recovery." That meant you could go back for as long as the account had existed, and recover versions. This is in marked contrast to both the 2017 Business Standard and Advanced plans. But, if you want a year worth of versioning, you can add it for $39. For the individual Plus plan, Dropbox offers 30 days of versioning.
