Increase Proton paid plans' storage for free
"Proton Mail Plus" plan's storage space isn't value for money.
Mail Plus: 15 GB storage, 48 EUR per year.
Google Drive Free: 15GB, 0 EUR per year.
Microsoft 365 Basic: 100GB storage, 20 EUR per year.
Same goes for Proton Unlimited which is too expensive for 500GB space while other cloud providers offer double storage at half the price.
I appreciate that Proton offers privacy, security and many Mail features. However the storage space it currently offers is unbearably low for the long-term.
Please increase storage space a bit without price increase so that it's more VFM and sustainable for end-users in the long term.
Thanks.

1. This reads like it’s ai generated.
2. Google profits off violating users privacy, with googles free services you are the product. With protons services you pay for the product. Proton cannot provide what Google can for free, since Proton is not profiting off of “Free” users while Google is. -

That sounds very expensive.

They aren't nearly as large as google but their products are so much more superior. Googles VPN is not very good and leaks frequently. Also now it can only be used on a phone.

Proton can't reasonably offer as much for free as Google does because they don't use your data to profit as much as Google does.

This would bankrupt Proton.

Proton should consider enhancing its free plan to offer more competitive features compared to Google's offerings. Specifically:
Increase storage: Provide more free storage space than Google's current 15GB allocation.
Expand features: Include additional privacy-focused features not available in Google's free plan.
Maintain lower pricing: Ensure that Proton's paid plans remain more affordable than comparable Google plans.
Highlight privacy benefits: Emphasize Proton's superior privacy protections as a key differentiator.
Improve ease of use: Streamline the user interface to make it as intuitive as Google's services.By implementing these changes, Proton could potentially attract more users who are looking for a privacy-focused alternative to Google with generous free offerings and reasonable paid options.

I thought about upgrading my current plan to mail plus but the storage capacity is very low, it is 15 GB which is equal to a free Gmail account. So I recommend you to increase the storage capacity, for example to 100 GB, to make the change more attractive.

I love your Proton service, I just suggest that you add 100 Gb to your VPN Plus plan, or even 500 Gb (1 Gb is very little!) and include much more generous storage in your VPN Unlimited plan, 1 Tb at least! Do this and you will crush the competition! I will subscribe to your service without any hesitation!!!
