    Pricing is pretty high for business $10.99/month vs Google Workspace starter at $6/month (which has many more features). Maybe a cheaper drive-only plan would be a good option.

      Pricing of an encrypted provider cannot be competitive with an unencrypted provider, as with encrypted storage, you’re not always able to deduplicate or compress file in a way non-encrypted providers can.

      Additionally, Proton has their main datacenter in Switzerland, with backup sites in Germany, which has a higher power, cooling and labors costs. Hence why pricing wise, a competition on prices from unencrypted storage providers won’t ever work.

        True, but they are at least hippa compliant - which is what matters for businesses I work with.
