Chapter 01Introduction
If you're looking to migrate your files from Koofr to Google Drive, you've come to the right place. Whether you're consolidating storage, switching to Google Workspace, or simply prefer Google Drive's ecosystem, the process doesn't have to be complicated.
In this guide, we'll show you how to transfer files from Koofr to Google Drive for free using RiceDrive — a cloud-to-cloud transfer tool that requires no installation and no local downloads. This method is faster, more reliable, and saves your local bandwidth compared to traditional download-and-upload approaches.
Chapter 02About Koofr
Koofr is a European cloud storage service founded in Slovenia, with a strong focus on privacy and GDPR compliance. Unlike many US-based cloud providers, Koofr stores data exclusively in EU data centers, making it an attractive choice for users who prioritize data sovereignty.
Key features of Koofr include:
- 10 GB of free storage — generous for a privacy-oriented service.
- Multi-cloud integration — connect external services like Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Amazon Drive directly into the Koofr interface.
- Built-in tools — duplicate file finder, storage usage analysis, and file versioning.
- Cross-platform support — available on web, desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux), and mobile (iOS, Android).
- File sharing — share files and folders with password protection and expiration dates.
Despite its strengths, some users may prefer Google Drive for its seamless integration with Google Workspace, wider third-party app ecosystem, and collaborative features like real-time document editing. This is where migration becomes necessary.

Chapter 05Step-by-Step Migration
Sign up for RiceDrive
Go to the RiceDrive official website and create a free account using your email. You can also sign in with Google or other supported accounts.
Once logged in, you'll be taken to the RiceDrive dashboard, where you can manage all your connected cloud storage accounts.
Connect Koofr
In the RiceDrive dashboard, click Link Drive and select Koofr from the list of supported cloud providers.
You'll be prompted to authenticate with your Koofr credentials. RiceDrive uses OAuth 2.0, so your password is never exposed to RiceDrive. Once connected, RiceDrive will display your Koofr files and folders, ready for transfer.
Connect Google Drive
Repeat the process for Google Drive. Click Link Drive → Google Drive and complete the OAuth authorization flow.
If you're using a Google Workspace account, make sure to select the option that supports Shared Drives if you plan to transfer files there.
Create a transfer task
Go to Cloud Transfer → Create Transfer to set up your migration task.
- Source (FROM): Select your Koofr account and choose the folder(s) you want to migrate.
- Destination (TO): Select Google Drive and choose the target folder where files will be saved.
- Transfer Mode: Choose between One-time transfer for full migration or Scheduled transfer for ongoing sync.
- Advanced options: You can choose to overwrite existing files, skip duplicates, preserve file modification dates, and receive email notifications when the task completes.
RiceDrive will preserve the original folder structure during migration, keeping your files organized just as they were in Koofr.
Start the transfer
Click Start to begin the migration. RiceDrive will transfer your files directly between Koofr and Google Drive without downloading them to your computer.

Monitor progress
Track your migration progress in real-time on the Transfer Tasks page. You can view files being transferred, current speed, and total data moved.
