Storage

J Elp
I have a class group that is considering using Zotero to share resources. If I am the "owner" of the group, does the storage space only count against my personal account? Are there special group rates or ways to increase storage over time? Given that we will be using a lot of PDF's, does anyone have storage recommendations? Someone suggested Dropbox, but I'm not sure how that works with Zotero? Thanks very much!

    the storage of a group counts only agains the group's owner, correct.

    I believe there are institutional rates - we're talking hundreds of users - but there aren't any special group rates, no. That said, of course the rate/GB goes down as you sign up for more.

    Dropbox and WebDAV won't work for sharing files in groups, unfortunately.

    Thank you. Do Dropbox or WebDav work for my personal Zotero library that is not shared?
  • adamsmith
    WebDAV yes.
    Dropbox kind of, see here:

    Thank you! Would WebDAV theoretically be less expensive than purchasing additional Zotero storage? How would I obtain WebDAV storage?
