That's where this direct-transfer feature becomes especially useful. Sometimes the files our business partner shared need not to be downloaded to local computer, and only need to be stored on cloud. If Dropbox could establish a direct tunnel with Google Drive, I will be more confident to transfer files. For someone who barely shows their face, doesn’t do customs, and purely just does OF on the side for those who want a little more.

During the process, files from both Google Drive and Dropbox have a high risk of being exposed to a third party or even leak to public. In addition to being among the best cloud storage for photos and video, they’re excellent for document. In the past, I have to install third-party app to my Google Drive to allow the files stored on Google Drive to be downloaded to the server provided by the third-party developer, and then they upload the files to my Dropbox account. Google Drive and Dropbox are mainstays in our list of the best cloud storage providers. As my business partners always use Google Drive to share large files every day, and I use Dropbox to store all my own files. I have to say this feature is so critical to my Dropbox using experience. I thought it was the day to end the Google Drive nightmare, but unfortunately the next day Dropbox took this feature away. I used to be able to transfer files directly from Google Drive to Dropbox using the Dropbox's native feature on Jun 18, 2022. As a Dropbox fan, Google Drive has always been a nightmare to me, due to its unstable download speed, horrible syncing app, irrational sharing logic, etc.
