Box is the secure collaboration tool that offers the best security and information governance across the storage providers. They tick all the boxes from strict data privacy, residency, and industry compliance. Migrating your team from Google Drive into Box can be daunting as Google is quite the simple platform that doesn't offer too much when it comes to extensive features and security. However, migrating out of Google Drive has its challenges, this ranges from duplicate files in the same directory to different proprietary Google file document types that other platforms do not natively support.
Google Drive to Box migrations are simple, fast, and cost-effective with Movebot. Movebot handles errors, Google limitations, and will automatically convert your Google Doc types into Microsoft Word during your migration, and at no extra cost.
Go to the registration page and create an account, it'll only take a minute. Once your account is created you will be taken into your Movebot dashboard.
Click Create Project and you'll be taken to a guided series of steps to set up your Google Drive to Box Migration. For Source, choose Google Drive and authorize the connection. Movebot can connect both personal Google Drive accounts as well as Google Workspace accounts.
From the dropdown select Box. Box is easy, all you need to do is login via OAuth into your Box Administrator account and tick Team Admin.
When you've been through the OAuth process click Next Step.
If you're moving from Google Workspace, you can add and map users, drives, and folders from the source and destination. All of these are covered under the Permissions step. If you do decide to migrate permissions, more options will appear to refine your choices.
Movebot is fully customizable right down to the region the migration is run from and how many worker nodes you wish to run on each individual migration. When migrating from Google to Box we would recommend no more than 3 nodes per migration, as there are limitations on the provider's end that could impact your migration negatively if adding too many nodes.
You'll now be taken back to your project dashboard. You can now start all or some migrations, run preflight discovery scans, edit each individual migration or dig deeper and look into the logs and analytics.
Movebot makes moving files from Google Drive to Box simple, with a straightforward and intuitive interface and zero infrastructure to worry about. All the tough parts are handled for you and you can get the status of your current project at any point.
