File Migration FAQ
Everything you need to know about file migration
01 What is a cloud file migration tool?
A cloud file migration tool is enterprise software that automates the transfer of files, folders, and metadata between cloud storage platforms like Google Drive, OneDrive, SharePoint, Box, and Dropbox. It preserves folder structure, sharing permissions, and file properties while ensuring data integrity throughout the migration process.
02 How do I migrate from Google Drive to OneDrive?
To migrate from Google Drive to OneDrive, connect both accounts to Cloudiway using OAuth 2.0, map source folders to destination locations, configure permission mapping rules, then execute the migration. Cloudiway automatically converts Google Docs to Office formats and preserves sharing settings.
03 Can I migrate from Box to SharePoint?
Yes. Cloudiway fully supports Box to SharePoint migration. All files, folder structures, metadata, timestamps, and permissions are transferred. Box collaborations are mapped to SharePoint sharing permissions, and large files are handled without size limitations.
04 How do I migrate Dropbox to Microsoft 365?
Dropbox migration to Microsoft 365 (OneDrive or SharePoint) is fully automated with Cloudiway. Connect your Dropbox Business account, select Team Folders and user drives to migrate, map destinations, and run the migration. All permissions and folder structures are preserved.
05 How long does a file migration take?
Migration duration depends on data volume, number of files, and network conditions. Cloudiway uses parallel processing to migrate terabytes efficiently. A typical 1TB migration completes within 24-48 hours. Delta sync ensures only changed files are transferred in subsequent passes.
06 Are file permissions preserved during migration?
Yes. Cloudiway intelligently maps and preserves sharing permissions across platforms. Internal sharing, external sharing, folder-level permissions, and user access rights are translated between Google Drive, OneDrive, SharePoint, Box, and Dropbox according to configurable rules.
07 What happens to Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides during migration?
Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides are automatically converted to their Microsoft Office equivalents (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) when migrating to OneDrive or SharePoint. Formatting, comments structure, and embedded content are preserved. Original files can optionally be kept as links.
08 Is there a file size limit for migration?
Cloudiway handles files of any size, including files larger than 15GB. The platform uses chunked uploads and resumable transfers to ensure large files are migrated reliably. There are no artificial size limits imposed by Cloudiway itself.
09 Can I migrate files without disrupting users?
Yes. Cloudiway uses delta sync technology, allowing users to continue working during migration. Initial migration runs in the background, then incremental syncs capture any changes. Final cutover is seamless with zero downtime for end users.
10 Is cloud file migration secure and compliant?
Absolutely. Cloudiway uses OAuth 2.0 authentication (no passwords stored), encrypts all data in transit with TLS 1.2+, and is fully compliant with GDPR, SOC 2, and HIPAA requirements. No file content is ever stored on Cloudiway servers - €"data flows directly between source and destination.
11 What is the cost of file migration?
Cloudiway offers flexible per-user licensing for file migration. Pricing depends on the number of users and source platforms. Volume discounts are available for large migrations. Contact sales for a custom quote or start with a free trial to test with your own data.
12 Can I automate file migration with an API?
Yes. Cloudiway provides a comprehensive REST API for automating migrations. You can programmatically create migration projects, map users, start migrations, monitor progress, and retrieve reports. This enables integration with your existing IT workflows and scripts.
13 Does the cloud file migration tool support incremental delta migrations?
Yes. After the initial bulk migration, Cloudiway runs incremental delta passes that copy only files added or modified since the last run. This dramatically reduces the cutover window and lets users keep working in the source platform until the very last hours of the migration project, with no risk of losing recent edits.
