How to move your Team from Google Drive to Dropbox for Business
Moving your individual storage from one provider to another is one challenge, but how about moving your entire team, or better yet — your organization? Often you have to outsource this work or find hacky solutions to help make the move bearable. Or, download all the files and then re-upload (sync) the files to your new provider. This last option is great if you have lots of time and enough space to handle the data.
Are there easier ways? Sure there are, especially with MoveBot. MoveBot can move your entire organization, or team no matter the size and it really doesn’t take much time at all. Not to mention, MoveBot can convert your Google file types (.gdoc, .gsheet, etc.) into the standard formats .doc, .xlsx, etc.
There are two ways MoveBot can do this…
User Driven method
As a Team Lead or Administrator you just need to send out a link to everyone who can then sign into their individual Google Drive and Dropbox for Business using OAuth and ta-da! You just press Go and MoveBot will move everyone to their new storage. This way is the most versatile and supports a wider range of storage options at this time.
Backend Automated
For this you need to have Domain Authority of Google Drive and be a Dropbox for Business administrator. But, the best thing is, it doesn’t need everyone to sign into their accounts. It’s all done in the back and all you need to do is map users Google Drive login with their Dropbox for Business login — more often they are exactly the same.
MoveBot is quick easy and affordable. It takes the challenge out of being locked down in a cloud and the team are happy to help. Check out the MoveBot website at MoveBot.io or flick an email to support@movebot.io
