What is Email Migration?
Email migration is the process of moving email data—such as mailboxes, folders, contacts, calendars, permissions, and archives—from one email system to another with minimal downtime and zero data loss.
- On premises email → Cloud email (e.g., Exchange → Microsoft 365)
- One cloud provider → Another (e.g., Google Workspace → Microsoft 365)
- Legacy platforms → Modern platforms (e.g., IBM Domino → Exchange Online)
