Moving Large Amount of files in SharePoint Online

Hi,

Looking for some feedback from the community. We are converting our classic SharePoint site to modern and we have to move large number of files (close to a 1TB) from different site to new sites. What is the fastest way to move files in a SharePoint online environment?

thank you for your feedback.

    Sharegate is good tool for the file migration specially when you compared it licensing cost with others.
    it also provide option to speed up your migration process using storage account in azure cloud.
  • The SharePoint migration tool doesn't support SPO to SPO content migration. ShareGate is a good option here. It also supports flattening the subsites into modern sites.
