Moving Google Drive Files to Dropbox (with a team account)

Hello,

I need to bulk transfer our organizations files from Google Drive to our Team Dropbox account. I saw the article where you can do it as a personal user, but is there a way to move the files without downloading them to my computer than uploading to Dropbox?

Dropbox doesn't have a transfer utility, but there are third-party services such as Multcloud, Cloudsfer, etc., that can do it for you.

Edit: I forgot about this feature. It might be able to handle it for you, though I don't know if there are any limitations.

Hi @hshupe16, thanks for messaging the Community.

Currently, the feature that @Rich mentioned is only available for personal plans, and not for Dropbox Business teams.

There isn't an official method to do what you're asking, so you'll need to look into other third party services to transfer the files across.

If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

While Dropbox doesn't have a built-in solution for this (especially for team accounts), one option you could consider is using tools like CloudMounter. It allows you to mount both Google Drive and Dropbox as local drives, so you can transfer files between them directly, without the need to download everything to your computer. It's a bit more manual but can still be a solid solution. Apart from that, if you're comfortable with tech stuff, you could explore using the Google Drive and Dropbox APIs to set up a more automated transfer process. But that’s a bit of work and not the easiest route unless you’re familiar with coding.
