Manage OVH Cloud Object Storage — Sync with S3, Google Drive, and More Using RcloneView
OVH Cloud offers affordable, GDPR-compliant object storage built on OpenStack Swift. But managing containers through the Horizon dashboard feels like infrastructure work, not file management. RcloneView changes that.
OVHcloud's Object Storage is a strong choice for European businesses needing GDPR-compliant, affordable cloud storage. Built on OpenStack Swift, it's reliable and well-priced. The challenge is managing it day-to-day — the Horizon dashboard is designed for infrastructure admins, not for browsing files, syncing to other clouds, or running automated backups. RcloneView provides the visual file management layer that OVH Cloud lacks.

RcloneView is a cross-platform GUI for rclone. Compare folders, transfer or sync files, and automate multi-cloud workflows with a clean, visual interface.
- One-click jobs: Copy · Sync · Compare

Free core features. Plus automations available.
Why OVH Cloud + RcloneView?
OVH Cloud Object Storage gives you S3-compatible and Swift-compatible access. RcloneView supports both protocols, so you can connect and manage your containers with a familiar two-pane file explorer.
What you get
- Visual browsing of all OVH containers and objects
- Cross-cloud sync between OVH and any of 70+ providers
- Scheduled backups from or to OVH storage
- Folder comparison for transfer verification
Connect OVH Cloud to RcloneView
You can connect via the S3-compatible API (recommended for new projects) or the native Swift API. Either way, your OVH containers appear in the file explorer immediately.
Common Workflows
Sync OVH to Google Drive
Keep a working copy of OVH files accessible in Google Drive for team collaboration. Sync changes back to OVH for long-term, cost-effective storage.
Back up OVH to another provider
Protect against vendor lock-in by maintaining backups on Backblaze B2 or AWS S3:
Migrate to or from OVH
Moving from AWS S3 to OVH for cost savings? Or consolidating from OVH to Azure? The two-pane explorer makes migration a drag-and-drop operation.
Monitor transfers
Track progress with real-time transfer monitoring:
Getting Started
- Download RcloneView from rcloneview.com.
- Add OVH Cloud as an S3-compatible or Swift remote.
