Google Apps to O365 migration
Edgar Vicioso You're in great hand with Antonio Maciel De Vargas. I've worked with him and the BitTitan team. Also if you need help with Google Sites or Drive migration please let me know as I know plenty of folks Down under :-)
Also here are some tips on what does and what does not get migrated with the BitTitan tool: BitTitan
What migrates and what doesn’t for Google Mail\Vault to O365 migrations https://community.bittitan.com/kb/Pages/What%20items%20are%20migrated%20with%20MigrationWiz.aspx
- Google Apps: Inbox, Folders/Labels, Email, Muted Email (as regular email), Contacts, Calendars (including links for Google Hangouts within calendar meetings).
o Note: Links for Google Hangouts are a new default feature added to Google Meeting. Microsoft Office 365 doesn't have the corresponding property to map. Therefore, when migrating to Office 365, the links for Google Hangouts are added to the beginning of the meeting description body text on Office 365.
- Google Drive: Folders, Shared Folders in your Drive, permissions, Google Apps native files except Google Forms, Code Files (Xml, cs, cpp, h, etc.), Documents (docx, doc, odt, csv, pdf, etc.), Images (png, jpg, etc.), Executables (exe), Videos (avi, mp4, etc.), Audio Files (mp3, wave, etc.). Typical Destinations: OneDrive for Business, Google Drive.
- Google Sites: Files on Google Sites that are of the "File cabinet" page type can be migrated using MigrationWiz to SharePoint Online document libraries. The migration includes both documents and document permissions.
- Google Vault (Source Only): Folders, Email

Hi @Faiza Qadri
Thanks for the very useful information. What would you say are the questions to ask/information to know before this type of migration?
I may be involved in a similar project soon and having never done this before want to make sure I ask the right questions, etc. before starting. And I assume this will also give me an idea of the effort involved?
Thanks again
