To sync multiple Dropbox Business accounts with corresponding Google Drive accounts you need to create two-way sync pairs like this:

Dropbox (bob@acme.com)   <-> Google Drive (bob@acme.com)
Dropbox (alice@acme.com) <-> Google Drive (alice@acme.com)
Dropbox (coddy@acme.com) <-> Google Drive (coddy@acme.com)
...

The above sync pairs will ensure that each user’s Dropbox account are the exact mirror of that user’s Google Drive account. All files and folders data will be transferred and it will also be kept in sync.

cloudHQ will also keep in sync all sharing information and permissions between Dropbox to Google Drive.

The Dropbox team folders will be automatically excluded because Dropbox team folders should be migrated to corresponding Google Drive Team Drives.

So it is important that created sync pair have the following:

  1. All sync pairs must have Sync only files I own (skip all files and folders which are shared with me) enabled
  2. All sync pairs must have the following two options disabled:
    Sync Google Team Drives (Business Plan required)
    Sync Dropbox Team Folders (Business Plan required)

Sync Dropbox Team folders with Google Drive Team Drives

Optionally, you can setup sync of Dropbox Team folders with corresponding Google Drive Team Drive. So you need to create two-way sync pairs that look like this:

Dropbox (admin@acme.com)/Team folder1   <->  Google Drive (admin@acme.com)/Team Drives/Team Drive 1
Dropbox (admin@acme.com)/Team folder2   <->  Google Drive (admin@acme.com)/Team Drives/Team Drive 2
Dropbox (admin@acme.com)/Team folder3   <->  Google Drive (admin@acme.com)/Team Drives/Team Drive 3
...

Here are step-by-step instructions for how to set up the above sync pairs.
