If you think that it will be good for our suite to include CloudDownload control you can create new feature request in our feedback portal, with detailed description about how you expect the control to look and feel. Then we are going to consider your request and if we decide that it is good-to-have feature we will approve the request. Once a feature request is approved it will be visible for all our customers and they can vote for its implementation and increase its priority, and at some point its implementation might be included in our planning.
As for support of the cloud storage services, we don't expose a provider for Azure or any other service out of the box. Instead the CloudUpload provides an interface (ICloudUploadProvider) that should be used to implement custom provider that wraps the API of the used cloud service.
Our SDK examples demonstrate how to implement custom providers with different services. Currently, we have examples for the Azure, Amazon and Everlive APIs. If you want to use "One Drive" or "Dropbox" you can implement providers using their APIs. However, the Dropbox doesn't support a C# API officially, but you can take a look at the third party API's.

Hello Todd,
Can you share some more information about this type of control? For example, what exactly it should do and how it will look. Also, can you show a similar UI used in an application?

A file browser style interface where you can connect to a cloud storage endpoint and then select files you wish to download. Then show the progress of them downloading.
Can't think of a competitor who does this. Look at most DAMs and CMSs and you will see examples where you can connect to blob style storage (in S3 or Azure.)
Hello Todd,
Thank you for the additional information. I've logged a new feature request in the feedback portal where you can track its status.
