Question 4

4. Is it better to move or copy files from Google Drive to OneDrive for Business?

Accepted Answer

There are several benefits to copying files than moving them. With a copy-and-paste action, your company can migrate Google Drive to OneDrive for Business while resuming everyday operations. Also, copying files helps you cross-check partial or entire data after the migration is finished.

Question 5

5. What to do if the API rate throttles during the migration?

Accepted Answer

The larger the data size, the higher the odds of the API transfer rate throttling. In most cases, it’s the cloud service provider that throttles the transfer rate due to high volume data transfer. Therefore, it’s important to abide by the waiting time that the cloud service provider sets. CloudFuze’s re-try mechanism will reinitiate the migration after the waiting time is over.

Question 6

6. Which permission to migrate to OneDrive: Root folder or sub-folder permissions?

Accepted Answer

With CloudFuze, you can migrate root folder as well as sub-folder permissions to OneDrive for Business. This essentially means that root folder files as well as sub folder files’ permissions will be migrated.

Question 7

7. What is the safest way to migrate data from Google Drive to OneDrive for Business?

Accepted Answer

CloudFuze, by default, offers a highly safe Google Drive to OneDrive for Business migration. It uses REST API calls and, therefore doesn’t have access to the actual data of your company. Also, by using the OAuth 2.0 protocol, CloudFuze does not have access to your company’s user account credentials. With CloudFuze, you also have the option to download the migration platform as a standalone program and run it in your company’s data center.

Question 8

8. Will working at the source cloud during the migration not have any negative effect?

Accepted Answer

No. CloudFuze performs the entire data migration in the background to make it simple and hassle-free for your company to work on the source cloud while the migration is in progress. No data will be affected when working at the source cloud during CloudFuze’s migration.

Question 9

9. What are some of the factors to consider before starting the migration?

Accepted Answer

The most important factor to consider is to do as much proactive work as you can prior to starting the migration. This is because getting everything right and initiating the migration will ensure hassle-free project completion rather than identifying loopholes during the migration and doing reactive work.

Question 10

10. How to prepare company employees to work in the new cloud suite?

Accepted Answer

Prior to completely switching from Google Workspace to Microsoft 365 for Business (G Suite to Office 365), it’s best to provide employees with a basic level of training. Also, it’s important that all the employees log into their new Microsoft 365 accounts to activate their accounts.
