What does a Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace migration involve?

A migration moves your email, calendars, files, and collaboration data from your current platform (e.g. on-premise Exchange, another cloud provider, or a different productivity suite) to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. We handle planning, data mapping, migration execution, user cutover, and post-migration support so your business transitions with minimal disruption.

How long does a migration typically take?

Timeline depends on mailbox count, data volume, and complexity (e.g. shared mailboxes, public folders, third-party integrations). A typical SMB migration can run over a few weeks with phased cutover. We provide a detailed project plan and timeline during the assessment phase.

Do you support migrations across South Africa?

Yes. We work with businesses across South Africa. Migrations are largely remote; we coordinate with your team and handle the technical work from our side. We can arrange on-site support for cutover or training if needed.

What is a productivity platform migration?

A productivity platform migration moves your email, calendars, files, and collaboration tools from one system to another (e.g. to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace). Done well, it minimises downtime and data loss while giving your team access to modern collaboration features. We handle the technical complexity so you can focus on your business.

Planning & assessment

We assess your current environment, data volumes, and requirements to design a migration plan. We identify dependencies, risks, and the right migration approach (e.g. cutover, staged, hybrid) so the move is predictable and low-risk.

Microsoft 365 Migration

We migrate your organisation to Microsoft 365 (Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams). We handle mailbox migration, file migration, and user provisioning so your team can work in M365 from day one. We support migrations from on-premise Exchange, Google Workspace, or other platforms.

Google Workspace Migration

We migrate your organisation to Google Workspace (Gmail, Drive, Calendar, Meet). We handle email, calendar, and file migration with minimal downtime. We support migrations from Microsoft 365, on-premise systems, or other providers.

Planning & Assessment

Before migration we assess your current setup: mailbox and file counts, data volume, integrations, and compliance requirements. We produce a migration plan with timeline, phases, and cutover strategy so you know what to expect.

Migration & cutover

We execute the migration with clear communication and support. We handle data migration, user cutover, and post-migration validation so your team can work in the new platform without disruption.

Data Migration & Cutover

We run the migration using industry-standard tools and methods. We migrate mailboxes, calendars, and files with integrity checks and validation. Cutover is coordinated with your team; we support during and after the switch so users can access their data immediately.

Post-Migration Support

After cutover we verify data completeness, assist with user questions, and help with any follow-up configuration (e.g. mobile sync, shared mailboxes, permissions). We stay available until you are confident the migration is complete.
