Moving email, files, and chats to a new platform sounds risky, and most of the risk sits in the planning. Google’s own migration tools now handle the heavy lifting: they move data cloud to cloud, need no extra servers or third-party licenses, and are free to use.

This guide walks through the approach Google recommends, from auditing your data to company-wide go-live. As a Google Workspace Premier Partner, Revolgy plans and runs Google Workspace migrations for companies of every size, so you don’t have to work it out alone.

• Five steps to a smooth migration: From defining your strategy and cleaning up legacy data to planning for risks before you move anything.
• A phased rollout plan: Start with your IT team, then 5–10% of users as early adopters, then everyone, so problems surface while they are still small.
• Free, built-in migration tools: How Migration Planner estimates your timeline and how Data Import moves Exchange Online, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams chats up to 5x faster than legacy tools.
• Staying productive after the switch: How your teams keep working with Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files directly in Gmail and Drive.
• Real migration stories: Including LifeCell, which moved more than 1,200 employees to Google Workspace in under three months.
