Cloud-to-cloud migration

Move Box to Dropbox

Copy the files you choose from Box into Dropbox, directly between the two clouds, without downloading anything. Your Box account stays exactly as it is.

How it works

  1. Sign in to CloudRaft and connect your Box account on its own login screen.
  2. Pick the files or folders you want to copy from Box.
  3. Connect Dropbox as the destination.
  4. We measure everything first and show you the plan — file count, size, and anything we have to set aside — before a single byte copies.
  5. Press Start. The copy runs on our servers, so you can close the tab; your Box originals are never touched.

Your originals are never touched

CloudRaft is copy-only. It reads the files you pick from Box and writes copies into Dropbox— it never deletes, moves, renames, or changes anything in your source. We don't store your file contents; they stream between the two clouds through our worker and are never written to our disks.

What to know for this move

  • Box Notes are Box's own document format — they copy as a .boxnote file that only opens in Box. Export them to PDF or Word from Box first if you want them readable in Dropbox.
  • There's no size cap on our side beyond what your Dropbox plan accepts.
  • CloudRaft reads Box only to copy — it can't delete, move, or rename anything in your Box account.

Questions

Do I have to download my files to move them from Box to Dropbox?

No. CloudRaft copies directly between Box and Dropbox on its own servers — nothing is downloaded to your computer and you don't need to keep a device running.

Will CloudRaft delete or change my Box files?

Never. CloudRaft is copy-only: it reads the files you choose and writes copies to Dropbox. It cannot delete, move, or modify anything in Box — that's enforced in code, not just policy.

What does it cost?

You can copy up to 10 GB free, no card. Beyond that you buy a one-time pass — a fixed amount of data for a one-time price, no subscription.

How long does it take?

As fast as both providers allow — we don't throttle. Small files move quickly; very large files take longer. It runs in the background, so you don't have to watch it.

Did everything copy correctly?

We verify every file landed at the destination before counting it done — by size, and by checksum where the provider supports one. The count you see is the verified count, not just attempted.

Can I move my Box files to a personal Dropbox?

Yes. CloudRaft copies the files you pick from Box into any Dropbox account. Copy-only, so your Box originals stay exactly where they are.

Will the folder structure be kept?

Yes — the folders you select are recreated in Dropbox with the same structure.
