Microsoft 365 Groups are the foundation of collaboration in Microsoft 365. When migrating between tenants, preserving your groups with all their connected resources is essential for maintaining team productivity.
Cloudiway migrates all Microsoft 365 Group components including mailbox, SharePoint site, Planner, and Teams connections.
What Are Microsoft 365 Groups
A Microsoft 365 Group is more than just a distribution list. Each group automatically includes:
Group Mailbox
- Shared inbox
- Group calendar
- Conversations
SharePoint Site
- Document libraries
- Files and folders
- Permissions
Teams (if connected)
- Channels
- Chat history
- Tabs and apps
Planner
- Plans and tasks
- Buckets
- Assignments
When you create a Team in Microsoft Teams, a Microsoft 365 Group is automatically created. Cloudiway handles these Teams-connected groups, migrating both the group and its Team together.
