Multi data migration Case Study

Google Drive Migration Case Study

Robinson & Henry, P.C., a full-service Colorado law firm, migrated their data from Box to Google Drive using Cloudsfer cloud migration solutions. They migrated successfully 4.6 TB of data and 110 users. At first, the company search for a migration tool and to migrate all their data to one place. Manish Dhakal, the company’s IT Manager told us that they were using Google for email and making the Google Drive as the storage made sense since the google drive started integrating with Salesforce so having all the data in one place makes sense. Robinson & Henry were supposed to migrate initially into Google Shared Drive as per shareholder decision. First consultation call with Robinson & Henry showed some restrictions and limitations pointing the transition into a Google Drive master account for maximum flexibility. Manish took the recommendations to management which agreed to steer the migration process according to Cloudsfer’s recommendations.
