Egnyte to Google Workspace Migration for Large Enterprises

Large enterprises looking for Egnyte to Google Workspace migration need to ensure accuracy when migrating all the data. What stands out the most about Google Workspace is its ability to integrate easily with different applications. Hence, enterprises can move files of all types and sizes without hassles.

Enterprises must assess the data they want to migrate and collaborate with IT team, stakeholders, and key decision makers to develop appropriate migration strategies to migrate from Egnyte to Google Drive and Google Shared Drives.

The following guide takes you through the steps to successfully perform Egnyte to Google Workspace migration.

1. Remove Unwanted Data Before Migration

To make your cloud migration cost-effective and seamless, the IT team must prepare a list of data that requires migration. At the same time, the team can remove data that is no longer in use and duplicate contents.

2. Proper Migration Planning and Choosing the Right Migration Partner

After removing unwanted data, enterprises can plan to move specific sets of data from Egnyte to Google Drive with replication. This includes the preservation of various metadata, including permissions of root and inner files and folders, preserving access levels of users, and adhering to the hierarchy structure of files and folders of Egnyte.

To migrate data from Egnyte to Google Drive with maximum security, enterprises must have robust security protocols in place to prevent any threat to data and immediately address any concerns that may arise during migration.

3. Map Users, Data & Migrate all Types of Files

To transfer Egnyte to Google Shared Drives and Google Drive without user impact, your team can use a third-party cloud migration tool to map user accounts and data, convert them to the required format, and check where the data sits in the destination cloud. All the files from Egnyte can be converted and moved to Google Workspace for effective collaboration.
