Dropbox to Microsoft OneDrive,
without the manual swap.
The most common Dropbox migration. Teams standardizing on Microsoft 365 land their existing Dropbox content in OneDrive without the export-and-reupload routine.
Mover handles Dropbox → OneDrive migrations end to end. Authorize Dropbox, authorize OneDrive, pick the data, run a free dry run. The first byte moves only after you see the price.

The M365 standardization move
Why teams move from Dropbox to OneDrive
Dropbox is where the data lives; OneDrive is where the company is going. The migration is almost always part of a broader Microsoft 365 push — one identity, one billing line, one storage layer.
Standardizing the team on Microsoft 365
IT consolidates on M365 for identity, billing, and security. Dropbox content has to land somewhere — OneDrive for personal folders, SharePoint for shared sites — for the cutover to actually complete.
Cutting per-seat Dropbox cost
Dropbox Business is per-user. For organizations already paying for an M365 plan that includes 1 TB of OneDrive per seat, the Dropbox line becomes redundant. Migrating the data is what lets you drop the Dropbox renewal.
Tighter integration with Office, Teams, and Entra
Files in OneDrive open natively in Office, share through Teams, and inherit Entra (Azure AD) identity. Moving the data closes the gap between "where files live" and "where work happens".
Compliance and retention controls
Purview, retention labels, and DLP policies apply uniformly across OneDrive and SharePoint. Pulling Dropbox content into the M365 tenant brings it under one governance regime.
Getting started
4 steps to Go.
From credential to first byte in a handful of clicks. The dry-run is free, every time, and shows the exact cost before you commit a byte.
Connect Dropbox.
Sign in to Dropbox through Mover and authorize the connection. Mover lists every Dropbox the connected account can see — personal accounts and Business team folders alike.
Connect OneDrive.
Sign in to OneDrive through Mover with a Microsoft 365 account that has rights to the destination drives. Mover supports per-user OneDrive and the OneDrive-backed personal layer of SharePoint sites.
Run a free dry run.
Mover walks the Dropbox source, counts files, sums bytes, and tells you the exact cost. The dry run is free, every time. You see the number before any data moves.
Launch the migration.
Live progress, automatic retries on transient failures, and a structured audit log of every file moved. Pause, resume, or cancel at any time.
The price
The pricing math, honestly.
Dropbox does not charge egress. OneDrive does not charge ingress. The only line item is Mover — as low as $0.15/GB on a 10 TB pack. The dry run shows the exact total before you commit.
Pricing example
5 TB Dropbox → OneDrive migration
The dry run is what to trust — it runs against your actual data and reflects the actual pack size you need.
Common Questions
Frequently asked.
Most teams launch their first migration in under 15 minutes. The dry run is free, every time.
Folder hierarchy is preserved. File modification timestamps are preserved where the destination supports it; OneDrive accepts the original modified-time on upload, so the metadata you care about stays intact.
