An Office 365 migration tool that allows for convenient user mailbox migrations from all Microsoft Exchange Server / SBS editions (2003 included) and IMAP servers, such as G Suite or IBM Notes, directly to Exchange Online. Migrations between Office 365 tenants are also supported. The program comes with bulk mailbox auto-matching feature, support for cutover, staged and hybrid migrations, item age and type filters, delta sync capability, detailed live and post-migration reports, custom email alerts, and more.
One of the worst software ever. I was doing migration for exchange 2007 to office 365 for out of 22 mailboxes only 3 got uploaded. Chat with support and email them buy they do not have fix for this. Ask for refund and they told me they do not have any policy for refund
You literally but the software on your own risk. GOOD LUCK
Easy to use, a must have for anyone thinking of move to Office 365 from On Prem. Saves hours of work or just have as a backup. But the best part about this software is the people behind it. Fast and knowledgeable.
You install the software on the server itself, to push the migration towards Office 365. A different approach than the Office 365 pull mechanism, where a valid and publically available Outlook Anywhere endpoint is needed to connect to.
Also, you can migrate from as low as Exchange 2003!
I found that CODETWO migration is just so easy to use, affordable, and does exactly what it claims.
The software is intuitive, and has many options for migration. I have migrated from an old IMAP server, GSUITE to Office 365, and from exchange. It just works.
If I had to find a fault it would be with the reporting, would be great if I could have got the migration summary of each mailbox as it completed and even better if the summary could have been sent automatically to the source or target mailbox (depending on preference)
If you need to move CodeTwo Office 365 Migration tool to another computer but do not want to purge mailboxes which were already processed and start over (to avoid duplicates creation) you need to follow the workaround mentioned in the document below to migrate settings and cache objects of the software to the new computer: CodeTwo Documentation
What CodeTwo does not mention in the article is that you need to have Messaging Api And Collaboration Data Objects 1.2.1 installed on the computer in case you are trying to migrate from Exchange 2003 or 2007.
If you already have office installed on your computer you need to remove it first before installing CodeTwo as per the guide's instructions. If you don't like I did Messaging Api won't be installed automatically and you won't be able to start the jobs or reconfigure the source server connection.
You can always remove and reinstall after removing Office from the "host" computer but you can also navigate to Add/Remove Programs and repair the installation of CodeTwo . If you do so a message will popup which indicates that Messaging Api And Collaboration Data Objects 1.2.1 is not installed on the computer and ask if you want the software to be installed. If you do so source server connection will be established .
Ilias Drosos is currently working in OfficeLine as a Cloud Architect. He has extensive experience in on-premise IT enviroments with expertise on especially identity , collaboration , infrastructure and security . During his carreer he has been involved in very large migration projects , regarding Exchange on premise to online Hybrid migrations , tenant to tenant migrations (rebrands) , legacy Exchange to Modern Exchange server migrations , on-premise to cloud working enviroments (like Windows 365,Azure virtual desktop ,Intune etc.) . He is also involved in complex Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager architecture- design-deployments, and troubleshooting which is a product he is in love with along with Exchange , Active Directory and Intune.
You are at a crossroads, and you are not alone. Practically everyone these days is wondering what the best move will be, which path they should take to move their messaging solution forward. Many who have remained on Exchange 2003 through the past 3 releases of Exchange (and multiple service packs and now cumulative updates) are finding themselves in a precarious position with no direct upgrade path to Exchange 2013 and an end-of-life support coming soon. The marketing hype on moving to the cloud may (or may not) be just what you need, but no matter which way you go you will have to figure out how to migrate there.
Have you ever been frustrated by something that is completely beyond your control? And when someone steps in to assist, you take your frustration out on them. That is somewhat how I feel when I review migration tools. There are so many wonderful aspects to third-party migration tools but the one thing that continues to frustrate me is the lack of ability to perform a migration from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2013 without either performing an intra-organizational double-hop (to Exchange 2007/2010 first and then to 2013) or a cross-forest (meaning new forest or resource forest) migration.
Working with both tools at the same time gave me the advantage of seeing how they both install and perform, especially if I wanted to perform a hybrid approach for my migration strategy. Right after the installation (which was a simple N-N-F, Next-Next-Finish install) I liked that the tools provide an easy to grasp quick tour of the product. It explained the ability you have to have automatching of mailboxes using the Automatch button, although you can also choose to manually specify each mailbox connection one-by-one.
Just one personal note: I absolutely love that the tools, although separate, are exactly the same with regard to the look and feel of them. The wizards work the same, the concepts are the same. It was so nice during testing to be able to jump from one to the other and be familiar with each immediately.
You can connect to your server through the wizard, shown in Figure 2, and choose a specific mailbox you wish to connect to. The program will create a MAPI profile and check whether you have appropriate rights to enumerate mailboxes, which is necessary to perform a migration.
The next part of the process is the verification portion. Once you verify your connectivity and the account you are using to enumerate mailboxes you are good to go on the source server side, as shown in Figure 3.
Once the connection to the target is complete you will be good to move forward. Keep in mind, if you are using the 30 day trial you will be allowed to only migrate up to 10 items for each folder from all selected mailboxes. After the migration completes you will be able to see quickly if it succeeded. And there is a log you can peruse to confirm the results. My testing went off without a hitch.
Selecting the Settings button, shown in Figure 7, helps you make some basic changes to concurrency and address rewriting. The default number of active connections is 2 (although you can alter this). The address rewriting helps with migrations where the current EX addresses are not recognized after the migration completes (e.g. after migration from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2013).
Code Two Office 365 migration tool is garbage. For clarity, it does NOT migrate the entire mailbox. It only copies the data within the mailbox to office 365. Therefore, you do have to use powershell to migrate the mailbox. They advertise there is no scripts involved and that is simply false advertising. In the end, this product does not do what it says (full migration) since it does not migrate the whole mailbox just the contents and does not transfer the mailbox attributes (most critical part of every mailbox) to Office 365 so the mailbox is still on the on-premise server.
CodeTwo Exchange Migration allows for secure and hassle-free migrations to Exchange 2019, 2016 and 2013 directly from older editions of Exchange (starting from Exchange 2003). This server app also lets you centrally manage migrations from servers supporting IMAP, such as IBM Notes, Zimbra, Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) and hosted email services. No double-hops, scripting or PST exports required.
No matter which Exchange Server version you are currently on, the program will let you easily migrate from one Exchange Server to another. CodeTwo Exchange Migration is especially useful when either moving users to another forest or upgrading your entire email server installation to a newer version.
Migrating away from the cloud is not an easy task and is not supported natively. But thanks to the EWS source-to-target connection, it is possible to use our software to easily migrate from Office 365 to the on-premises Exchange Server. You can move the entire organization or only its specific part to any modern Exchange Server (2010+).
Exchange Servers that are at least two versions apart cannot coexist in the same forest. It means that you cannot migrate directly, for example, from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2019. CodeTwo Exchange Migration lets you migrate from any legacy Exchange Server to the newest versions without the necessity of pre-installing an intermediate Exchange version first. As a result, keeping your servers up-to-date and moving to Exchange 2019/2016 requires fewer resources and costs you less money.
The program gives you full flexibility for configuring your migration projects. You can transfer all mailboxes in one migration run or in multiple batches, as well as migrate data from or to a hybrid environment.
CodeTwo Exchange Migration also lets you centrally manage migrations of emails from IMAP servers like IBM Notes (formerly Lotus Notes), Google Workspace, Rackspace, Zimbra, Zarafa, Kerio Connect, etc. to Exchange 2019 or 2016. During IMAP migrations, you have access to all filtering, scheduling and reporting features that are available in Exchange migrations.
The language is not a barrier for migration with our software. CodeTwo Exchange Migration lets you migrate all items, regardless of which language is set on the source and the target servers. Even if every item you migrate is in a different language, the software will migrate each of them, including all special characters.
