If someone is able to give me a clear answer as to why it's so bad to share a login I'd be happy to look at taking on this increased cost. This would now be $1,680.00 a year just so I can password protect a file.
At the moment that costs us $100.00 a year with no current downside other than my inability to password protect certain folders from being accessed. So all up we have the 4 corporate members, owner, owners wife, brother of owner working remotely from Poland, in house bookkeeper. Files that are accidentally deleted are easily retrieved via the DropBox website, and quite frankly, this has never even occurred. Why is it so bad that those 4 people share the same DropBox login while at work? They don't know the password to log in and they are all on desktop systems that do not leave the business. I have 4 corporate staff members, 2 of those staff members manage the website as well. So far the only people who have told me this is a terrible idea are the people who sell the software or someone with a vested interest in said software. Thank you for your response, however, if you have the time I would really appreciate a more in-depth response as to why this is so (very) bad practice? Thanks for taking the time to read and respond to my question. This would be 3 users you are required to pay for to have DropBox business. I was hoping to be able to have my store A team use one email, store B team use another email, and the Bookkeeper use the final email. So the question is, can I still have multiple people use the same email login for DropBox Business? 11 seperate users $17.50 per user a month is a very big expense to move to as opposed to $99.00 a year. If I ask DropBox they simply tell me that it's a security concern and against their T&C's, which is concerning. I've spent some time googling my question but haven't been able to get a clear answer. There are other benefits from moving to Business which are just a nice feature to have. The major reason for the move is that I need to password protect sensitive employee data that is now being stored by our in-house bookkeeper.
We are on our way to outgrowing this solution and are looking at moving to DropBox business.
We have approximately 11 people using the same email address login. I'm the IT Manager for the business I work for and we currently have a DropBox Plus Account.
