File Share & SharePoint Migration to Microsoft 365
Move your files to SharePoint Online, OneDrive and Teams without losing structure, permissions or a working day.
We migrate content from file servers, older SharePoint versions and cloud drives such as Google Drive, Box and Dropbox into Microsoft 365. Every migration starts with an inventory and clean-up, maps structure and permissions to a modern design, pilots first, then runs bulk and incremental passes with validation, so users switch over with everything where they expect it.

Why migrations go wrong
“We copied everything, and now nobody can find anything.”
A lift-and-shift copies 15 years of clutter and deep folder paths into the cloud.
“People lost access on Monday morning.”
Permissions and identities were not mapped before cut-over.
“Our SharePoint 2016 server is out of support.”
SharePoint Server 2016 and 2019 reached end of support in July 2026, so the server no longer gets security updates.
Migration paths we handle
Planned, piloted and validated, using Microsoft’s supported migration tools.
File server & NAS to SharePoint
Network shares moved into SharePoint libraries and Teams, with structure redesigned where needed.
SharePoint Server to SharePoint Online
Sites, lists, libraries and permissions from SharePoint 2013, 2016 and 2019 moved to the cloud.
Google Drive, Box, Dropbox & Egnyte
Cloud drives moved into OneDrive and SharePoint with permissions and identity mapping.
OneDrive & Known Folder Move
Personal files and desktops synced to OneDrive for every user.
Workflow & customisation review
Old workflows, InfoPath forms and add-ins assessed and rebuilt with Power Automate, Power Apps or SPFx.
Validation & cut-over
Counts, permissions and spot checks validated before users switch, with incremental syncs until cut-over.
Migration tools have changed
Microsoft’s migration stack is more capable, and some older options are gone. What we use and plan around:
- Migration Manager now covers file shares plus Google Drive, Box, Dropbox and Egnyte; the separate Mover tool is retired
- SharePoint Migration Tool (SPMT) for on-premises SharePoint sites and lists
- Incremental runs (delta or full) keep the destination current until the cut-over weekend
- End of support: SharePoint Server 2016/2019 support ended 14 July 2026; the options are SharePoint Online or SharePoint Server Subscription Edition
Tool limits apply: for example, maximum file sizes, and folder-level versus file-level permissions for some cloud sources. We plan around them in the assessment.
Our five-stage migration method
Inventory
Size, file types, long paths, permissions and owners.
Clean & map
Archive clutter; map structure, metadata and identities.
Pilot
One department migrated and signed off.
Migrate
Bulk and incremental runs in planned waves.
Validate & switch
Reports, spot checks, cut-over and user support.
A migration you can sign off with confidence
- A pre-migration assessment and target structure
- Permissions and identities mapped before any data moves
- Migration reports with file counts, errors and fixes
- Old workflows and customisations rebuilt or retired
- User guides and day-one support at cut-over
Common migration projects

Migration questions, answered
Plain answers to what business owners ask before they start.
Ask us a questionHow long does a file migration take?
It depends on volume, file count, network and clean-up. Small shares can move in days; larger estates are migrated in waves over several weeks with incremental syncs.
Will permissions be kept?
We map users and groups first and migrate permissions where the tool supports it, simplifying them to a modern model where possible.
Can people keep working during migration?
Yes. Bulk copies run in the background, incremental passes keep content current, and users switch on a planned cut-over date.
Our SharePoint 2016 server is out of support. What are our options?
Move to SharePoint Online in Microsoft 365, or upgrade to SharePoint Server Subscription Edition if you must stay on-premises. We help you choose and migrate.
What happens to old workflows and InfoPath forms?
They don’t migrate as-is. We rebuild the ones still needed with Power Automate and Power Apps, and retire the rest.
Can you migrate from Google Drive or Dropbox?
Yes. Microsoft’s Migration Manager supports Google Drive, Box, Dropbox and Egnyte; we handle identity mapping, scanning and validation.
