Samsung Cloud Shutting Down
Part 1

How To Transfer Samsung Cloud To OneDrive Officially

As with all responsible manufacturers, Samsung is not leaving users in the lurch to figure out for themselves how to transfer Samsung Cloud to OneDrive as it shuts the service down. Instead, it has provided ways to do that officially to ease customers into the OneDrive service provided by Microsoft.

Until April 29, Samsung had provided the option to move Samsung Cloud to OneDrive directly. Post this date, the only option it provides is to download the data, and that could be to any other place, a USB drive, or a cloud storage service provider of choice, such as Dropbox or Google Drive.

How To Transfer Samsung Cloud To Another Cloud Drive

In case you are a paying Samsung Cloud member, Samsung says they will match your storage capacity in OneDrive free of charge for 1 year. So, if you are a paying member, it makes sense to take advantage of the offer for a year and then decide what to do. However, if you are not, then be advised, OneDrive only offers 5 GB free storage whereas Google Drive offers 15 GB.

So, how do you transfer Samsung Cloud to another cloud storage that is not Microsoft OneDrive?

InClowdz To The Rescue

You can use InClowdz to seamlessly transfer your Samsung Cloud to any other provider, be it Dropbox, pCloud, or Google Drive.

Step 1: Go InClowdz here: https://inclowdzapp.wondershare.com

Step 2: At launch, InClowdz opens in the Migrate module and you can see two options in front of you - add source drive and add target drive. Click Add Source Drive and select Samsung Cloud from the list of supported cloud services.

Step 4: Authorize the target drive and click Migrate to start the process. If you want to choose what to transfer instead of the entire Samsung Cloud, you can click the account and choose.

Going One Step Further With InClowdz

You would have noticed how easy it is to use InClowdz by now. That same philosophy is put to use in two other InClowdz modules that can be accessed from the sidebar. They are Sync and Management. The sync module allows you to sync your data between two cloud drives, and the management module allows you to do something you have always wanted to do - it allows you to access your data from all the cloud drives connected to the software, in one place, and while you can perform routine tasks such as creating, copying, renaming and deleting files and folders, you can do one more thing that you cannot do anywhere else - you can transfer your data from one cloud to another in one click, whenever you want. This is a next-level productivity booster today when we all have multiple cloud storage accounts for personal and work use.

Here is how to use InClowdz to manage your cloud drive accounts:

Step 1: Click the Management module from the sidebar. You will see a list of your connected accounts under it.

Conclusion

Samsung Cloud is shutting down soon and if you need to save your data, Samsung gives you a way to download it to a USB drive or Microsoft OneDrive. But, if you want to transfer Samsung Cloud to another drive, you need to use other software such as Wondershare InClowdz that helps you transfer Samsung Cloud to your chosen cloud seamlessly and provide advanced tools to help you manage your array of cloud drive accounts easily and intuitively.

OneDrive is integrated well in Samsung phones and that can work well for you if you have less than 5 GB of data since that is the free storage OneDrive offers. If you paid for storage in Samsung Cloud, Samsung would provide you with the same storage capacity in Microsoft OneDrive free of charge for a year, and post that you can choose what to do. If you are not a paying user, you might want to transfer Samsung Cloud to another cloud storage that offers more storage such as pCloud, Dropbox, or Google Drive.
