Egnyte Files Migration to SharePoint With Versions

When planning a full-scale Egnyte files migration to SharePoint, one area you cannot miss out on is preserving file versions. Similar to other metadata like permissions and external sharing, versions are critical to maintaining the integrity of migrated files and maintaining user collaboration post-migration.

Why Do Businesses Need to Retain Versions When Migrating Egnyte Files to SharePoint?

Versions are the historical context of various types of documents and preserving them during migration is critical for various reasons, including:

  • Preserving historical data and information
  • Backtracking previous versions
  • Analyzing the changes made over time
  • Retrieving information lost during new changes
  • Record keeping for documentation compliance

In many companies and teams, versions are also integral to file collaboration between internal and external users. Therefore, preserving all versions during migration becomes important for businesses of all sizes and industries.
