General Questions
Is MultCloud FREE?
MultCloud has the free version as well as the paid version.
For free accounts, you can get 5GB of data traffic provided by MultCloud every month to transfer files
from one cloud to other clouds. However, if you want to experience more features and get more data
traffic every month, then you can subscribe to the premium plan.
Is MultCloud a cloud storage service?
MultCloud is like a cloud management channel and it does not have any
storage space. If you have multiple clouds, then you can add them to MultCloud to manage and transfer
your files from one cloud to other clouds as long as there is enough free space on your destination
cloud.

If you are using a free account, there's 5GB of data traffic every
month. But you can have more data traffic if you subscribe to the premium plan.

you need to upgrade your account so that you can continue to transfer them.

There is no doubt that MultCloud is safe to use. It does use three
methods to ensure the safety of your account and data.

transmission.

authorization framework that enables third-party applications to build up a connection to cloud
services without username and password required.
(3) Your data and files will not be stored on the
MultCloud server. They'll be still kept in the original cloud drives. MultCloud can only be allowed to
access your cloud drive account with your own permission.
Does MultCloud have apps for mobile devices?
MultCloud does not have a separate app at present.

Data Transfer FAQs
Are there any difference between Cloud Transfer and Cloud Sync?
Generally, the transfer task will copy the whole source
folder to the destination, while the sync task will only copy files/folders under the source folder to
the destination. And, the Cloud Sync feature supports more sync ways. For more details, please refer
to here.
What's the difference between using "Cloud Transfer" and "Copy+Paste"?
In the new version of MultCloud, there is no difference between the
two, except that "Cloud Transfer" is more suitable for transferring folders or the contents of entire
cloud drive, while "Copy+Paste" is good for moving a small number of files or folders.
Will the transfer/sync feature delete all source data?
For the transfer task, it only copies data from the source cloud drive
to the target cloud drive. But, if you check the option “Delete all source files after transfer is
complete” under Options, it will delete the source data after the transfer is completed. For sync
task, there are multiple sync ways. The “Move Sync” will delete all the files in the source directory
when the synchronization is completed. Other sync way will not delete the source data.
Will MultCloud transfer/sync all files/folders again when you run the
transfer/ sync task again?
Generally, for the transfer task, it default selects “If the
destination location contains the file:Directly skip the file, don't transfer it.”. So, it will skip
the same files to transfer failed or new files. For sync task, the simple sync will skip the same
files to sync failed or new files when you run the existing task again.
Why has the modified date of files been changed when transferring/syncing
to the target drive?
Most of clouds’ API doesn’t offer the feature to keep the modified
date. Only when transferring to Dropbox, Google Drive, and G Suite, they will keep the file
modification date. When you create the transfer task to Dropbox, Google Drive or G Suite, you can
check the option "Keep file modification date" under Options. For sync task, it currently doesn't
support the feature. We will optimize after.
Exceed the maximum number of tasks
The maximum amount of tasks is 100 for Cloud Transfer and 100 for Cloud
Sync. So for this situation, you can click "Task Manager"-">>"-"Edit" to delete the tasks that you no
longer need.
Do I have to be logged in or can I shut my PC and the transfer will
continue in the background?
When the transfer task begins, you can close your current page and even
close your network and computer because MultCloud supports to transfer your files under background.
Transfer progress is stuck
Please cancel the process, and then run the transfer or sync task
again. For transfer or simple sync task, generally, it will skip transferred/sync files.
Slow transmission speed
The transfer speed depends on many factors, such as the size of the
files being transferred, the Internet connection, the API restrictions of the cloud providers to
third-party services like MultCloud and so on. And if you were using the Cloud Sync feature to migrate
your files. For your situation, we suggest that you can use the Cloud Transfer feature to migrate them
as the speed of the Cloud Transfer feature is faster than the speed of the Cloud Sync feature.
How many tasks can I run at a time?
Each free account can run one transfer task and one sync task at a
time, but you can run one transfer task and two sync tasks simultaneously if you upgrade your account.
Does MultCloud support the real-time sync?
The previous version of MultCloud does not support real-time sync, but
it supports real-time sync in the latest version. If necessary, you can update to the latest version
and use the real-time sync function.
How to find transfer/sync errors in MultCloud?
Please check the failed task under Task Manager and click “Menu”
option, then you can see the “view logs”. Open the logs to view the error files.
Why does the video resolution decrease after transferring the video from
Google Photos to another cloud via MultCloud?
MultCloud accesses Google by integrating Google API, and downloading
videos or photos through the API is compressed.
Why the used space of Google Drive in MultCloud is less than the one on
official Google Drive?
MultCloud only reads Google Drive used space but does not include
Emails and Google Photos space. To check the used space, please log into Google Drive offical website,
click "Buy Storage" -->"View details", then you will see the used storage of Drive, Gmail and Google
Photos.
Why Google Photos does not list all albums in MultCloud?
MultCloud does not support listing empty albums. You need to save some
pictures to albums.
Transferring files from Google Drive/Workspace fails with the error "403
Forbidden {"message":"This file is too large to be exported." }".
For MIME type Google documents, Google API restricts third-party tools
to export the maximum limit of 10MB. So MultCloud as a third-party tool can not export/transfer MIME
google documents over 10MB. Please download them manually from Google Drive/Workspace then upload to
other clouds.
