Questions to ask Dropbox Business before you sign

  • Is SCIM provisioning included, or a paid add-on?
  • Which plan includes audit logs, and how long are they kept?
  • Where is our data stored, and can we choose the region?
  • Can we sign your standard DPA without changes?
  • What will the price be at renewal, and is the increase capped?

Questions are listed where Dropbox Business's public pages leave the answer open.

Who Dropbox Business is for

Choose Dropbox Business if

  • 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.
