Migrate Groups from Meta Workplace to Google Chat
If your company is planning to migrate Meta Workplace to Google Chat, your team must focus on transferring groups as part of ensuring accurate replication of Meta Workplace in Google Chat.
In this post, we have shared the process of migrating Meta Workplace groups to Google Chat using our migration tool. The overview of the process should help you understand the flow and plan your company’s Meta Workplace groups migration accordingly.
Process to Migrate Public Meta Workplace Groups to Google Chat
Our Meta Workplace migration tool makes it simple to migrate public groups to Google Chat.
To get started, navigate to the Groups migration stage of our migration tool. There, under the “Public Groups” tab, select the public Meta Workplace groups you want to migrate. You can either select all or choose individually:
Once you have selected the public groups, click on “Start Migration” to start the migration process.
Monitor the ongoing migration in the Reports dashboard of our tool. The “Completed” status indicates that the migration process has been completed.
The Process to Migrate Private Meta Workplace Groups to Google Chat
The process of migrating private Meta Workplace groups is similar to migrating public groups.
In the Groups stage, toggle to the “Private Groups” tab and select the private groups to migrate. You can either select them individually or entirely.
After selecting the private groups to migrate, click on the “Start Migration” button to initiate the migration process.
Make sure to monitor the ongoing migration. Our tool has a dedicated Reports dashboard where you can check the status of the migration.
Migrating Meta Workplace Groups Manually vs With a Tool
If you are considering trying out migrating Meta Workplace groups with a manual approach, you will likely face a lot of limitations. Migrating private groups, in particular, is next to impossible with a manual approach, given the limited access they allow.
It’s only by using a tried-and-true migration tool that it becomes possible for your company to transfer all Workplace groups in a secure, seamless, and cost-effective way.
| Scope | Manual Approach | Tool-based Approach |
|---|---|---|
| Migration capabilities | Rudimentary manual approaches have a lot of technical limitations, such as inability to replicate metadata at a scale. | REST API and OAuth process-based tools can transfer all the complex features without any limitations. |
| Cost of migration | Unpredictable, and often high as a lot of IT man hours is needed to build an in-house solution. | Cost-effective to outsource and turnkey enterprise-level migration capabilities. |
| Return on investment | Unpredictable, and often complex to justify with the IT man hours spent. | It can help generate substantial ROI for the first year and subsequent years. |
| Success of migration | Unpredictable, and often riddled with errors as building a tool in-house involves a steep learning curve. | Almost always successful. Migration vendors that are partners with Google Workspace, like CloudFuze, have an advanced technical edge. |
