Frequently Asked Questions
What platforms can you migrate from to Google Workspace?
Our Google Workspace migration services support migrations from Microsoft Exchange (all versions), Microsoft 365 and Office 365, Microsoft SharePoint, IBM Lotus Notes and HCL Domino, Zimbra, Novell GroupWise, IMAP and POP3 email systems, Dropbox, Box, OneDrive, on-premise file servers, and other Google Workspace tenants.
What data can be migrated to Google Workspace?
Our Google Workspace data migration services cover email (full mailbox history, folder structure, attachments, and labels), contacts, calendar events including recurring meetings and reminders, Google Drive and file migration including folder hierarchy and permissions, shared drives, Google Chat and Spaces conversation history.
Will our email continue to work during the migration?
Your existing email environment continues to function normally during the migration period, and we manage the DNS cutover to Google Workspace at the agreed time, typically during a low-traffic window with real-time monitoring to confirm successful cutover before closing the migration window.
How long does a Google Workspace migration take?
Migration timelines depend on the number of users, total data volume, source platform complexity, and whether a phased or cutover approach is used. Small migrations of under 50 users can typically be completed within a few days.
What is the cost of Google Workspace migration services?
Migration cost depends on the source platform, number of users, total data volume, and the level of service required fully managed, co-managed, or advisory. We provide a transparent cost estimate after the initial assessment.
How do you ensure data is not lost during migration?
We run pre-migration scans to identify data integrity issues in the source environment before migration begins. During migration, every transferred item is validated against the source to confirm completeness and accuracy. Multiple validation checkpoints are built into every stage of the migration process.
Do you support phased migrations?
Yes, migrating users in batches over a defined period while maintaining coexistence between the source and Google Workspace environments is our recommended approach for larger organisations.
What post-migration support do you provide?
Every engagement includes a structured post-migration support period during which our team is available to resolve data discrepancies, address user access issues, answer configuration questions, and confirm that all integrations and third-party applications are functioning correctly in the new environment.
