Wooooohhhh, this is bad.. REALLY BAD.

Your sales team just sold me Dropbox Teams so I can migrate over from Google Drive. I'm trying to migrate a lot of data and without this feature... It aint gonna work.

 

Surely there is a solution to this? Third party tools are slow (Literally 4 years to do it) or expensive ($350/TB to transfer).

Help!

Facing same issue with similar catalogue size. Only solution I’ve come across is to connect your google drive to a large enough external drive or raid and choose to have your files synced locally in Google drive settings. Then take those files for upload to Dropbox.
