CloudRaft
Cloud-to-cloud migration

Move OneDrive to Dropbox

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

How it works

  1. Sign in to CloudRaft and connect your OneDrive account on its own login screen.
  2. Pick the files or folders you want to copy from OneDrive.
  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 OneDrive originals are never touched.

Your originals are never touched

CloudRaft is copy-only. It reads the files you pick from OneDrive 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

  • When you connect OneDrive, Microsoft may show an "unverified publisher" notice — that's a Microsoft account step, not a CloudRaft problem, and it's safe to continue. We only request read access to your files.
  • Files your OneDrive hasn't finished syncing yet may be set aside (we don't copy a file we can't measure). Open or finish syncing those, then run a quick second migration for the leftovers.
  • There's no size cap on our side beyond what your Dropbox plan accepts — very large files just take a little longer.

Questions

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

No. CloudRaft copies directly between OneDrive 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 OneDrive 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 OneDrive — 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.

Is this a good way to move off Microsoft 365 to Dropbox?

Yes. CloudRaft copies your OneDrive files straight into Dropbox without downloading them, so you can wind down OneDrive once everything's across. Copy-only — nothing in OneDrive is removed until you remove it yourself.

Will my folder structure be preserved?

Yes — the folders you pick are recreated in Dropbox with the same structure. CloudRaft copies into your Dropbox; it never changes anything in OneDrive.
