Cutover Google Workspace to Office 365 migration (IMAP migration). Just email and email folders: 7-Days Consulting Service

Note: If you have contacts, tasks, and calendars in your mailbox and you need to migrate this data in addition to your email messages and email folders, then you need a different Service -- G Suite to Microsoft 365.

We can migrate user mailboxes from your source email system to Microsoft 365 using the Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) for email migration, focusing on emails and folders only.

Our objective is to efficiently plan, design, and execute G Suite to Microsoft 365 mailbox migration via the IMAP protocol, ensuring minimal downtime and data loss.

The migration project will be considered successful if all mailboxes are moved to Microsoft 365.
