What Moves — and What Requires Reconfiguration
A transparent breakdown of every component in your Microsoft 365 environment: what transfers automatically, and what is re-engineered for Google Workspace.
What Moves (Full Migration Scope)
| Component | Source (Microsoft 365) | Target (Google Workspace) | Migration Protocol & Verification |
|---|---|---|---|
Emails & Mailbox Folders | Exchange Online / Outlook | Gmail / GWS Mailbox | All inbox emails, sent items, sub-folders mapped cleanly to Gmail labels, and online archives with zero data loss. |
Calendars & Meeting Schedules | Outlook Calendar | Google Calendar | Primary calendars, recurring meetings, attendee acceptance statuses, meeting links, and descriptions. |
Personal Contacts & Address Books | Outlook People / Contacts | Google Contacts | Personal contacts, company details, phone numbers, notes, and custom distribution contact lists. |
Files & Document Libraries | OneDrive & SharePoint | Google Drive & Shared Drives | OneDrive files migrate to personal My Drive. SharePoint libraries map directly to Google Shared Drives preserving permissions. |
Microsoft Teams Channels & Message History | Microsoft Teams (Channels) | Google Chat Spaces | Teams public and private channels map directly to Google Chat Spaces, preserving conversation history, original timestamps, sender attribution, and attachments via Google Chat Import API. |
Domain Routing & DNS Security | Microsoft 365 Tenant | Google Workspace DNS | MX records, SPF, DKIM, DMARC security authentication, email aliases, and domain routing with continuous dual delivery. |
User Identity & Authentication | Microsoft Entra ID | Google Cloud Identity | User accounts, security groups, 2-Step Verification (2SV), and SAML single sign-on federation. |
Our Approach to This Migration
A controlled, transparent rollout process tailored for Microsoft to Google Workspace transitions — built around zero operational disruption and full technical oversight.
Assessment first.
We map your current Microsoft 365 setup — Exchange mailboxes, shared mailboxes, SharePoint permissions, OneDrive storage, and connected SaaS tools — before proposing a plan. This isn't a generic checklist; it determines your specific migration sequence, timeline, and validation criteria. Nothing moves until we know exactly what's there.
Phased execution.
If you also need broader Google-side security changes (Google Cloud Identity, context-aware access, endpoint management), that happens as a sequenced next phase, not bundled into the same cutover window. We sequence each cohort deliberately with verification checkpoints between phases.
On your systems, in view.
The migration runs where you can see it happen, not behind closed doors. Your data stays in your environment throughout — we're not routing it through a third-party pipeline you can't inspect. You know what's happening at every step, with no surprises mid-migration.
Who This Is For
Tailored migration delivery whether you are modernizing collaboration, reducing software spend, or scaling alongside IT.
