Microsoft focuses on providing a seamless move to Microsoft 365 with as much expertise and tooling we and our ecosystem can offer – across the globe. Our goal is to help move to the cloud with confidence.

 

At times, you need to move content cloud-to-cloud. We’re pleased to highlight Mover integration progress, to bring more of their technology directly inside the SharePoint admin center in Microsoft 365. Now, the Migration Manager admin tab is the home to manage all content migrations into Microsoft 365 (primarily into OneDrive, SharePoint, and Microsoft Teams) – without leaving the service. 

 

Connect your Box, Dropbox, or Google Workspace account to Microsoft 365 to move files and folder into OneDrive, SharePoint, and Microsoft Teams.

Microsoft offers numerous content migration tools and services to assist your migration into Microsoft 365 – from assessment, to planning and onboarding. And we work closely with our 3rd-party migration partners to optimize their offerings as well.

 

Migrate your files and folder from Box [roadmap ID: 68816]

SharePoint and Microsoft 365 admins require support to migrate content from Box into Microsoft 365; that’s Box files and folders as well as conversion of Box notes into Word documents – to where you choose as destination into OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams. Now it’s more centrally located and fewer clicks to discover content and move it into Microsoft 365.

 

After clicking “Get Started” from the main Migration Manager page, Box users are scanned automatically. You can also review reports and logs pre-migration to investigate any possible issues that might block your migration.

When you connect to a Box enterprise account, the service discovers users and their files. The service will automatically map to an individual’s OneDrive accounts, and you can manually map to a specific OneDrive user account, or route to SharePoint sites or a Teams channel for content meant to be in shared spaces.

As you connect to a Dropbox for Business account, the service begins discovering users and their files. The service will automatically map to an individual’s OneDrive accounts, and you can also manually map to a specific OneDrive user account, SharePoint site, or a Teams channel.

What’s next…

As we continue to invest across the migration offerings, we are excited to expand our cloud-to-cloud capabilities to allow moving content from Egnyte into Microsoft 365 [roadmap ID: 82016]. And before you move any file or folder from on-premises into Microsoft 365, you need to discover content and plan for the migration. Soon, Migration Manager will provide content discovery so admins can best understand what content they have, decide what to migrate and what to remediate. If you are interested, you can complete this form for the Migration discovery preview.

 

Regardless of your organization’s size, data scale or information complexity, you can migrate documents and sites into OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams in Microsoft 365 successfully. And we are here to help.
