“Couchdrop is very easy to setup and maintain. The solution just works. Once you hooked up your cloud storage and mounted it to an endpoint, all you need to do is give access to your SFTP users within the interface. That's it. You're done.”

Four ways to move files to and from Dropbox (Personal)

Whether you need to support manual file transfers, self-service uploads, email-based collection, or fully automated SFTP workflows, Couchdrop provides a secure gateway into your Dropbox (Personal) environment.

Connect to Dropbox (Personal) using SFTP

Create SFTP user accounts that map directly to Dropbox (Personal) folders. Partners connect using standard SFTP/FTP protocols, and clients like FileZilla or WinSCP, to upload and download files. You control permissions down to the folder level, while they use the tools they already know.

Upload files into Dropbox (Personal) via web portal

Generate secure, branded upload pages where external users can drag-and-drop files directly into Dropbox (Personal). No accounts or software needed—just send them a link. Perfect for collecting documents from clients, vendors, or anyone who needs to send you files occasionally.

Save email attachments to Dropbox (Personal)

Create dedicated email addresses that automatically extract attachments and save them to Dropbox (Personal). Partners just email files like they always have—Couchdrop handles the rest. Set rules to route files based on sender, subject, or attachment type.

Automate Dropbox (Personal) transfers

Set up scheduled or triggered file movements between Dropbox (Personal) and any SFTP endpoint. Monitor Dropbox (Personal) folders and automatically send new files to partners, or pull files from external servers into Dropbox (Personal). Build complex workflows with file processing, routing, and notifications—all without writing code.
