@lashandias @nickcreates Same here. I asked their support chat, and they said there is no plan for Pro users yet, which I find ridiculous why they wouldn't include this much anticipated feature for paying Pro users.

@chad_fullerton @lashandias @nickcreates What a bunch of dirtbags! I pay for my DropBox account but now they're only going to roll out high profile features for business? Guess it's time to start evaluating other options again.

@dany20mh ODrive looks awesome, especially being able to sync multiple accounts and various services together. Their Infinite Sync is the same as Dropbox, but even better (option to auto remove old unused files to cloud only status to free up HD space automatically, etc). However... the unsync feature is only part of their premium account. And that costs ro… See more

@chad_fullerton you can unsync the stuff you don't want very easy and I don't have premium account and it let me do it.

@dany20mh Ok cool! I'll try it out then! :D That would be awesome. Their pricing features page lists unsync as premium only, and in their docs they have in bold text that unsync is a paid premium feature only. So maybe they changed their minds on that ;) https://www.odrive.com/upgrade Thanks!

@chad_fullerton @burtbrumme @lashandias @nickcreates just spoke on dropbox sales chat and he mentioned that they are looking into it for Pro accounts. I agree with the trying to convert people... seems silly not to offer to all paying customers. maybe it is a staged release?
