Dropbox to Microsoft SharePoint,
into the team-content layer.
The team-content half of a Dropbox → M365 migration. Dropbox shared folders and team folders land in SharePoint sites — same identity, same governance, same search.
Mover handles Dropbox → SharePoint end to end. Authorize Dropbox, authorize SharePoint, map sources to destination sites, see the price before any bytes move.

Why teams move from Dropbox to SharePoint.
Most Dropbox → SharePoint migrations are part of a broader M365 standardization. SharePoint is where shared / team content lands; OneDrive is where personal content lands. The migration is what makes the cutover real.
Standardizing the team on Microsoft 365
IT consolidates on M365 for identity, billing, and security. Dropbox's shared folders and team folders have to land somewhere; SharePoint sites are the natural target — team-permissioned, governed, integrated with Teams.
Ending the Dropbox Business renewal
Dropbox Business is per-user. For organizations already paying for M365 with bundled OneDrive + SharePoint storage, the Dropbox line is redundant. Migrating the data is what lets you drop the Dropbox renewal.
Integration with Teams and Office
Files in SharePoint open natively in Office, share through Teams, surface in Microsoft Search. Pulling Dropbox shared content into SharePoint closes the gap between where files live and where work happens.
Compliance and retention under Microsoft Purview
Purview, retention labels, and DLP policies apply uniformly across SharePoint and OneDrive. The Dropbox content joins the same governance regime as everything else in the tenant.
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. For Dropbox Business migrations, authorize as a team admin so Mover can see every team folder and every member's files.
Connect SharePoint.
Sign in to SharePoint through Mover with a Microsoft 365 account that has rights to the destination sites. Mover supports per-site mapping so each source folder lands where it belongs.
Run a free dry run.
Mover walks the Dropbox source, sizes the transfer, and produces an exact-cost estimate. The dry run is free, every time.
Launch the migration.
Live progress, automatic retries on transient failures, structured audit log of every file moved.
The pricing math, honestly.
Dropbox and SharePoint are both zero-egress and zero-ingress for migration traffic. The only cost is Mover — as low as $0.15/GB on a 10 TB pack.
5 TB Dropbox → SharePoint migration
The dry run is what to trust — it runs against your actual data and reflects the pack size you need.
Frequently asked.
Most teams launch their first migration in under 15 minutes. The dry run is free, every time.
Run a free dry run. Connect Dropbox and SharePoint, and Mover walks the source, counts every file, sums the bytes, and returns the exact file count and price before you commit. Buy the matching usage pack, launch, and Mover handles the transfer — re-running later moves only what changed or failed.
You map each Dropbox folder (team folder, shared folder, or specific path) to a specific SharePoint site or document library. One-to-one mapping is most common; many-to-one (consolidate multiple Dropbox folders into one site) and one-to-many (split a Dropbox folder across sites) are supported.
Mover migrates file content. Sharing models differ between Dropbox and SharePoint — permissions don't transfer 1:1 and have to be re-established on the SharePoint side through Entra groups, site sharing settings, and external sharing policies.
Folder hierarchy is preserved. Modification timestamps are preserved where SharePoint accepts them on upload.
Yes. Authorize Dropbox Business as an admin so Mover sees every team folder + every user's personal Dropbox, and Mover can move all of it in one coordinated migration — typically with personal Dropbox content landing in OneDrive and shared content landing in SharePoint.
Yes. Mover reads from Dropbox via OAuth while the migration runs. Cancel the Dropbox plan after the migration is verified — not before.
It depends on size and on Dropbox and SharePoint API rate limits, which Mover respects automatically. Multi-TB migrations typically complete inside a single business day.
Move Dropbox to SharePoint in one pass.
Connect both sides, run a free dry run, see the price. No exports, no manual reupload.
