Move All Types of Files from Box to OneDrive for Business
When planning to move files from Box to OneDrive for Business, you must consider all types of files living in your company’s Box account, including Office files, Google files, and even Box’s exclusive Box Notes files.
To migrate all these types of files, you must use a highly advanced Box to OneDrive for Business migration tool like CloudFuze Migrate. Equally important is to have a proper strategy and roadmap to ensure you do not go wrong in any area.
This brief guide offers insights into moving all types of files from Box to OneDrive using CloudFuze Migrate:
Migrate Office Files Created in Box to OneDrive for Business
Box allows users to create various types of Office files, including:
- Microsoft Word
- Microsoft Excel
- Microsoft PowerPoint
It is important to migrate these files as part of adopting OneDrive. And since these are Microsoft files, no format conversion is needed. With our migration tool, you can move your company’s entire Office files (created in Box) to OneDrive as well as SharePoint Online.
Migrate Google Files Created in Box to OneDrive for Business
Similar to moving Office files, it is important to migrate all Google files that your company’s users have created in their Box accounts. And when doing so, ensuring proper format conversion is critical.
Google files created in Box | Conversion in OneDrive |
---|---|
Google Sheets | .xlsx (Microsoft Excel) |
Google Docs | .docx (Microsoft Word) |
Google Slides | .pptx (Microsoft PowerPoint) |
Migrate Box Notes Files to OneDrive for Business
Since Box Notes also make up the bulk of files that users create and collaborate on, it is important to transfer them during your company’s Box to Microsoft 365 migration. And when migrating Box Notes, ensuring proper conversion to Microsoft-supported formats is a must!
Our tool’s Box Notes migration function makes it seamless for companies of all sizes to migrate Box Notes as .docx files to OneDrive as well as SharePoint Online.
