Google Workspace to Office 365 FAQs - AVAMIGRATRON

Why should I perform my G Suite to Office 365 migration using a third-party application?

Performing a manual migration can consume a lot of time and can even lead to data loss. Whereas, when you’re performing the migration using a genuine third-party application like AVAMIGRATRON you can achieve a high-speed migration without any data loss.

How is AVAMIGRATRON more secure than other third-party applications?

When you’re performing migration using AVAMIGRATRON your data will be encrypted and stored in your environment, (not anywhere else) to ensure the security of your data, whereas most of the tools in the market do not offer this. And that’s how we stand out from the rest!

Do I need to provide any credentials?

No, you needn’t provide any credentials, as the authentication of the source is done using service account configuration with a super admin role in G Suite.

Won’t I face any business interruption during the migration process? What is the ideal time to perform migration?

As AVAMIGRATRON assists both inventory and migration simultaneously, you won’t face any interruptions during the migration progress. However, domain cutover may happen and to resolve this, we recommend you perform the process on weekends.

Can I make customizations in my Office 365 atmosphere?

Guess what? You can! We design and develop custom solutions of your choice in your new Office 365 atmosphere so that you can retain the same look and feel as in Google Sites.

How long does a migration to G Suite take?

Usually, the time frame of the migration depends on the size of your data. Especially Office 365 can cause throttling problems while migrating bulk data. To avoid this, AVAMIGRATRON offers the best throughput to enable hassle-free file sharing.
