G Drive to O365 Onedrive: Server to Server Drive Migration: Systools Application
In, almost every case of G suite to O365 Mailing solution transfer, client is asking for G drive into O365 Onedrive server to server migration. Through Systool application process can be handled easily. In this article, we will discuss the process of drive migration.
There is no drive migrator integrated with O365 admin so as to handle the process from the admin console itself. Hence manual download of files from G drive and upload to one drive is the suggested way. It takes a long time to download the files and upload in One drive and also due to the manual process internet bandwidth also gets affected.
Hence as an alternate solution, we found a third-party application called Systool Migrator for G Drive to One Drive. You can go to the below link for Systool:
