Built for moves that have to finish
Cloud to cloud
Start the move and close the tab. It keeps going, for days if it has to, straight from OneDrive to Dropbox.
Move it your way
One folder today, the rest next week. Pick folders or single files, send them to any Dropbox folder, and come back for more.
Every file accounted for
A report lists every file that moved, was skipped or failed, with the reason. Failed files are never charged, and you can retry them.
A safe switch-over
Keep working in OneDrive while the move runs, nothing there is changed or deleted. For 30 days, a catch-up pass moves only what changed since.
Your folders, recreated
The folder structure is rebuilt inside the Dropbox folder you choose.
Personal and work OneDrive
Microsoft 365 Family, Personal or Basic, a free Microsoft account, or OneDrive for work or school. You connect your own account and move the files in it.
What moves
- Every file and folder you pick, or your whole OneDrive
- File names, folder structure and modified dates
- Any file type, videos and design files included, up to 350 GB per file
- Into any folder in your Dropbox you can add files to
What stays behind
- Sharing settings, comments and version history
- OneNote notebooks, which OneDrive does not hand out as files, show greyed out in the picker, and any inside a folder you move are listed in your report. So are shortcuts to files other people shared with you.
- Your OneDrive itself: nothing is deleted there
How long it takes
Dropbox has no daily upload limit like Google Drive's 750 GB, so your move does not stop for the night. It runs as fast as OneDrive hands the files over and Dropbox takes them in. Thousands of small files take longer than a few big ones of the same size.
When either service asks apps to slow down, the move waits and carries on by itself. Close the tab: the progress and the report are there when you come back.
