CloudHop

The easiest way to copy files between cloud storage services. Free, open source, runs on your machine.

Download / Install

Mac -- Download CloudHop.dmg from Releases

First launch: right-click > Open > click "Open" (why?)

Windows -- Download CloudHop-windows.zip from Releases

pip

pip install cloudhop && cloudhop

Homebrew

brew tap ozymandiashh/tap && brew install cloudhop

From source

git clone https://github.com/ozymandiashh/cloudhop && cd cloudhop && pip install -e . && cloudhop

Docker

docker run -d -p 8787:8787 \
  -v ~/.config/rclone:/root/.config/rclone:ro \
  husamsoboh/cloudhop:latest

Then open http://localhost:8787 in your browser.

Note: Configure your cloud accounts with rclone config first, then mount the config into the container.

Why CloudHop?

• Free and open source, no limits, no account needed
• Files transfer directly, never touch our servers
• 70+ cloud providers (Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, iCloud, MEGA, S3, Proton Drive...)
• Visual wizard, no command line needed
• Pause, resume, and schedule transfers across restarts
• Copy, sync, or two-way bisync modes

How it works

1. Run CloudHop -- launch the app or run cloudhop in a terminal
2. Pick source -- choose where your files are (e.g., OneDrive)
3. Pick destination -- choose where to copy them (e.g., Google Drive)
4. Configure options -- set parallel transfers, exclude folders, limit bandwidth
5. Connect accounts -- authorize each cloud provider in your browser
6. Start transfer -- watch progress in the live dashboard with speed charts and ETA

CLI Usage

Supported Providers

Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, iCloud Drive, MEGA, Amazon S3, Proton Drive, Local Folder + 70 more via rclone

How is this different from...

rclone? CloudHop uses rclone as its engine. If you're comfortable with CLI, you don't need this. CloudHop adds a visual wizard and live dashboard.

MultCloud / CloudFuze? Those are paid SaaS that route files through their servers. CloudHop is free and your files transfer directly between providers.

Download and re-upload? That requires local disk space and 2x transfer time. CloudHop uses server-side copy where supported.

The story

I needed to move 500GB of files from OneDrive to Google Drive. Every tool I found was either paid, required uploading my files to someone else's server, or needed a PhD in command-line tools. So I built CloudHop -- a simple, visual way to move files between any cloud service, running entirely on your own computer. No accounts, no subscriptions, no middleman.
