    Overview

    The need for a better email migration tool

    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 about 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. Organizations use email migration tools to move email data from one platform to another. Many businesses today are moving data from on-premise email archives to the cloud to take advantage of opportunities for cost saving, simplified management and integrated data stores. 

    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.

    How do I migrate to Office 365, Outlook or Exchange?

    Moving data from existing email data archives to Office 365 can be timing consuming, costly and risky. Data may be lost and the time required to transfer data can prevent users from accessing it during the migration process.

    Mimecast simplifies migration to Office 365 with an Exchange/Outlook migration tool that accelerates migration while significant reducing costs. Mimecast's solution also provides O365/Exchange online protection, safeguarding data by storing multiple, encrypted copies and providing tamper-resistant chains of custody.
