ShareGate vs. DIY: Easy wins, smart savings, big impact

ShareGate is a true out-of-the-box solution for managing Microsoft 365, SharePoint, and Teams. Migrate, resolve, control, and automate without those labor-intensive Microsoft native tools.

More than 75,000 IT pros trust ShareGate to securely and accurately migrate more than 3 petabytes of data every month

What sets ShareGate apart?

Microsoft offers best practices and some free tools like PowerShell. But using its tools effectively to manage Microsoft 365 requires time, specialized skills, advanced licensing, and continuous oversight. ShareGate simplifies—skip the complexity, dive into action. Spend less time on repetitive tasks, more time winning. Choose results over resource drain.

No coding, just results

Simplify Microsoft 365 management with ShareGate, no manual scripting or complex workflows. Using Microsoft tools like PowerShell is time-consuming and requires frequent script adjustments for Microsoft updates or changes in your environment.

Get going quickly

Use ShareGate to turn Microsoft 365 into the collaborative and secure environment it should be, within minutes of setup. Building solutions using Microsoft tools can take weeks to months, require specialized skills not all IT admins have, and drain your resources.

Hands-free tools

ShareGate cuts daily Teams and SharePoint operational tasks down to minutes. Streamline governance policies, manage permissions centrally, get actionable insights, and auto-collaborate with users to keep things tidy. Using Microsoft tools requires IT intervention and continuous oversight.

Fully automated solution

Get hands-free automation with ShareGate. It’s like having a full-time IT professional, for just $5,995/year. Developing and maintaining complex DIY solutions with Microsoft tools involves advanced licensing and often results in half-automations.
