Microsoft 365 to
Google Workspace Migration

Move from Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace — Outlook to Gmail, OneDrive and SharePoint to Google Drive, Teams to Google Chat — with complete data fidelity.

Overview

What this migration involves

Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace migrations cover multiple product pairs: Outlook maps to Gmail, OneDrive and SharePoint map to Google Drive and Shared Drives, Outlook Calendar maps to Google Calendar, and Microsoft Teams maps to Google Chat.

Each workload has its own migration tooling, data structures, and edge cases — Teams in particular needs its own plan, since it doesn't have a direct one-to-one equivalent in Google Workspace. CloudyNex handles all of them in a coordinated sequence so your team transitions cleanly. For the full planning picture, see our Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace migration guide, including what happens to your OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams data.

Business Challenges

What makes this migration complex

01
Teams to Google Chat mapping

Microsoft Teams doesn't have a direct one-to-one equivalent in Google Workspace. Channel conversations and files need a dedicated migration path to Google Chat Spaces — see our OneDrive, SharePoint & Teams migration guide for the full detail.

02
SharePoint permission redesign

SharePoint's granular permission model must be deliberately redesigned for Google Shared Drives — access levels and group memberships don't translate automatically.

03
User adoption

Moving from Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace is a significant experience change. Communication planning and user documentation reduce friction at cutover.

Our Process

How we run the migration

01 — Audit
Environment audit
Audit of Outlook mailbox sizes, OneDrive/SharePoint storage volumes, Teams usage, and Calendar configurations.
02 — Mapping
Identity mapping
Every user, group, and site membership mapped to its Google Workspace equivalent before migration begins.
03 — Pilot
Pilot migration
A representative group migrated first — email, files, Calendar, and Contacts — to validate the plan end to end.
04 — Pre-stage
Historical data sync
Outlook history and OneDrive/SharePoint content synced before cutover to minimise the live migration window.
05 — Cutover
DNS and MX update
MX records updated, Microsoft 365 email paused, final sync completed, users switched to Google Workspace.
06 — Hypercare
Post-migration support
7-day priority support. Device setup guidance. Source tenant maintained until full sign-off.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

No. All historical email is migrated to Gmail. Outlook folders are mapped to Gmail labels. Post-migration integrity checks verify that all mail has transferred correctly.
OneDrive personal files migrate to Google Drive, and SharePoint document libraries migrate to Google Shared Drives. Office documents remain usable in Google Workspace, with conversion to Google's native formats available where needed.
Teams channel conversations and files are migrated to Google Chat Spaces and Shared Drives through a dedicated migration path, since Teams and Google Chat aren't structurally identical.
Most mid-size organisations complete the full migration over two to four weeks including discovery, pilot, and cutover phases.
