How to Transfer from Google Photos to Box

Last Updated :

Google photo storage launched in 2015 and promised its users that it would be offering unlimited free image hosting on its platform. But since then, things have changed and this year, Google made an announcement stating that it will discontinue its unlimited free image hosting services.

The taking away of unlimited free photo storage and Google photos backup is a huge blow to many users, especially creative artists and photographers. However, it doesn't have to be that way as PicBackMan is here to save the day.


Transfer Your Photos From Google Photos To Box

PicBackMan does exactly what it's supposed to. It's quick and efficient. It runs unobtrusively in the background and has done an excellent job of uploading more than 300GB of photos to 2 different services. After having lost a lot of personal memories to a hard drive crash, it's nice to know that my photos are safe in 2 different places.

LOVE this program! Works better than ANY other program out there that I have found to upload thousands of pictures WITH SUB-FOLDERS to SmugMug! Thank you so much for what you do! :) #happycustomer

I pointed PicBackMan at a directory structure, and next time I looked - all the photos had uploaded! Pretty cool. I use SmugMug and while I really like it, the process of creating directories in is pretty laborious when you need to make 80+ at a time. This was a breeze. Thank you!

PicBackMan was really easy to setup and has been running for 3 days now backing up all my locally saved photos to Flickr. My photos are really valuable to me so it's great to be able to have them easily backed up to a secure location.
