Move Google Drive to Dropbox
Move the files you choose from Google Drive into Dropbox without downloading a thing to your computer. The copy runs on our servers, so you can close the tab — and your Google Drive originals are never touched.
How it works
- Sign in to CloudRaft and connect your Google Drive account on its own login screen.
- Pick the files or folders you want to copy from Google Drive.
- Connect Dropbox as the destination.
- We measure everything first and show you the plan — file count, size, and anything we have to set aside — before a single byte copies.
- Press Start. The copy runs on our servers, so you can close the tab; your Google Drive originals are never touched.
Your originals are never touched
CloudRaft is copy-only. It reads the files you pick from Google Drive 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
- Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides aren't regular files — they live inside Google's system and can't be copied byte-for-byte. Export them (to PDF, .docx, .xlsx) from Drive first if you want them in Dropbox.
- Very large files copy more slowly than small ones, but there's no size cap on our side beyond what your Dropbox plan accepts.
Questions
Do I have to download my files to move them from Google Drive to Dropbox?
No. CloudRaft copies directly between Google Drive 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 Google Drive 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 Google Drive — 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.
Will my Google Drive files be deleted after copying to Dropbox?
No. CloudRaft is copy-only — it reads the files you pick and writes copies into Dropbox. It never deletes, moves, or modifies anything in Google Drive. Your originals stay exactly where they are.
