[Three Ways Included]: How to Transfer Files from Dropbox to Amazon Cloud Drive easily?

Why Need to Transfer Files from Dropbox to Amazon Cloud Drive?

This is a relatively laborious process, but it ensures that your files are indeed safe and secure. Because Amazon Cloud Drive stores files only in the cloud, you can only access files manually from a device with a modern Web browser and manually grab files, then manually re-upload files to Amazon Cloud Drive once any changes has been made.

So you can use it as a backup tool to back up files from Dropbox to Amazon Cloud. But is there any solution that can copy files from Dropbox to Amazon Cloud Drive directly?
