How it works
1: Scan and prepare SharePoint

2: Migrate your sites & data
Migrate all your SharePoint data to a new tenant. Maintain file hierarchies and metadata. Create activity reports. Identify access issues & remediate.
3: Reduce SharePoint clutter by 70%
Eliminate 75% of post-migration tasks, including content cleanup, permissions mapping, and file structure validation. Migrate faster.
“Managing SharePoint at scale often leads to blind spots, but ShareGate has helped us eliminate them. We now enjoy clear visibility into permissions, external sharing, and inactive content throughout our tenant.”
“ShareGate facilitates our SharePoint migrations from on-prem to cloud, but it also provides the ability to report on many different use case scenarios including stale content, last modified, permissions, and workflow associations.”
“ShareGate is a tool that allows us to perform migrations where the source or destination must be SharePoint. It not only allows migrating the content but also the structure, which has enabled the technology office to reduce time and maintain the organization of the content to be migrated.”
“I use ShareGate for migrating data from local network drives and SharePoint Online to another SharePoint site. It's the only tool that can do that easily, with its easy UI and large community support making migration fast and easy.”
“I recently migrated thousands of files from a file share to a SharePoint Online library. The process involved moving a large volume of documents, which required careful planning and attention to detail. Overall, the migration was successful, and I was able to transfer all the files to SharePoint Online as intended.”

Frequently asked questions
ShareGate Migrate handles SharePoint-to-SharePoint migrations across on-premises and Microsoft 365. That means on-prem to online, on-prem to on-prem, tenant-to-tenant, and even restructuring within the same tenant.
Beyond SharePoint sites, you can also migrate OneDrive, Teams, and file shares into Microsoft 365. Need to move from Google Drive (including Shared Drives) or Box? We've got that covered too.
ShareGate Migrate handles all the SharePoint essentials: sites, lists, libraries, files, folders, metadata, content types, permissions, and versions. We copy everything as-is, so what you had in the source is what you get at the destination.
What we don't migrate: third-party add-ons, custom code, or apps built outside SharePoint. Classic pages and web parts will move, but they won't automatically modernize. If you need those to work in a modern site, you'll need to rebuild them.
Yes. ShareGate Migrate doesn't cap how much you can move, but SharePoint and Microsoft 365 do care about how you move it.
Don't run millions of items as one giant job. Break migrations into manageable batches, typically 500k to 800k items per operation, with 1M as a practical ceiling. This avoids throttling and keeps things moving smoothly. Need to go faster? Run multiple migrations in parallel across different machines.
Check ShareGate Migrate's migration report. Every item gets a status: Success, Warning, Error, or Skipped. A migration is successful when ShareGate sends the content and SharePoint confirms the import.
Don't just count files at the destination—ShareGate tracks versions, folders, and other objects too, so the numbers won't match a simple file count. For extra confidence, run Source Analysis before and after your migration, then compare the totals.
Yes, if you run a migration with "Copy and replace" mode. ShareGate will overwrite whatever's at the destination, even if users updated it after your initial migration.
To avoid overwriting user changes, use "Don't copy existing items" or "Copy if newer (incremental)." Incremental mode only replaces destination items when the source version is newer based on last modified date.
