Backup entire Dropbox folder to cloud backup service
I have stopped using my local hard drive to store my files and instead upload everything to Dropbox. Realizing the risk this presents, I'd like to create an automatic backup system as a precautionar...
Hello TL73. Thanks for posting in the Community about this.
There isn’t a way to back up your Dropbox desktop app folder directly to other services, however there are third party services that can help you do this. Here you will find our official migration partners.
Hope other users jump in to this topic and offer more alternatives.
Cheers!
Hi there TL73,
I know this might be an old question but I've recently had this thought as well. Dropbox is great and does provide a 180day file recovery for deleted files, but like you, having everything in one place seems to pose a bit of a risk.
The best solution I've found as of February 14th, 2021 is using a service like "multcloud". For USD120 you can move "unlimited" data from Dropbox to a Backblaze bucket for example. They support several clouds including pcloud, google drive, Backblaze, amazon s3 just to name a few. This seems to work great for me and my team, and we're backing up 30TB between Dropbox and Backblaze.
Hopefully this helps anyone else who's looking for a similar solution
Hi Ruanth,
I to found Multcloud and attempted to back my dropbox to Mega cloud. But I found that it was totally incapable of backing up my data. I have 3TB of data to back up, I tried to set the whole lot as a single task and after 13 hours it failed. I tried dividing the data down into sections so that the tasks would be smaller, but these to failed.
I'm still hunting around for a reliable cloud - cloud one way back up solution. For the time being I'm going to use an external HD and just sync it every few days. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
