What ShareGate is
ShareGate provides migration tools plus Microsoft 365 governance and security products for IT teams. ShareGate Migrate moves SharePoint, Teams, and Planner content between on-premises and cloud environments, between tenants, or within an environment. Pro and Enterprise add workloads for Google Workspace, Exchange Online, Box, and Entra ID identity migration. Migrate installs on Windows computers and does not support macOS. ShareGate Protect gives tenant visibility, identifies risky sharing and permissions, and provides actions for resolving issues. Reports cover sites, groups, OneDrives, sharing links, and users, with AI report generation from plain-language prompts. Protect is limited to one production tenant per subscription. Protect and Migration Assessment use TLS 1.2 in transit and 256-bit AES at rest, do not collect full document contents or personal messages and email content, and can store data at rest in North America or Europe while processing remains in Azure East US 1. A full-featured 15-day trial is available.
