Move to the cloud with ease with Mimecast migration software

While more companies are considering cloud-based platforms for storing and archiving email data, legacy migration software solutions can make the task of moving data to the cloud prohibitively costly and complex.

Data migration with legacy migration software has traditionally been an arduous and time-consuming task. With migration taking weeks (during which time valuable data may be unavailable to end-users) and costing as much as $10,000 per terabyte, organizations may be tempted to maintain the status quo rather than attempt to take advantage of new cloud storage solutions.

To reduce the cost and complexity of migration, organizations need state-of-the-art migration software that can eliminate the need for time-consuming drive shipping and accelerate the process of extracting and validating data and performing integrity checks. That's why more businesses today are turning to powerful new migration software from Mimecast.

FAQs: what is migration software?

What is migration software?

Migration software is an application that helps organizations to manage the movement of data from one storage system, format or computer system to another.

What makes migration software effective?

Because data migration can be a costly and time-consuming task and because data may be inaccessible during migration, superior migration software should simplify migration management, minimize migration timelines and reduce or compress the amount of data to be migrated in order to accomplish migration more quickly and affordably.
