Move Data from Dropbox to Azure Storage
Hi All,
We have data of 15TB and want to move all of them to an Azure storage account, could you please give us any suggestions on how to transfer this.
Thanks

Dropbox doesn't have such a feature. You'll either need to download the files and re-upload them to the other cloud storage, or look for a third-party service that specializes in could-to-cloud data transfers.
Thanks for the confirmation, Rich. Just wanted to know, do you have any recommendations for third-party apps that specializes in could-to-cloud data transfers?
You can use Azcopy the CLI tool , it is free, efficient for large data transfers, supports various Azure storage types (blobs, files, etc.), multi-threaded for faster uploads.
Or you can use GUI alternatives sync tools like Sharegate and Gs Richcopy360 , both are professional tools with additional features like data filtering, scheduling, error handling, cloud-to-cloud transfers.
I recommend evaluating your specific needs and constraints to choose the most suitable method for transferring your 15TB data to Azure storage efficiently and securely.
