Why is contentGATE your best choice?

Secure and Reliable

Everything runs automated, controlled and secure.

Case studies

Soluvia IT Services in Mannheim were using Metalogix Archive Manager for many years. Due to its limitations, not supporting multiple sites nor being able to scale, they have decided to switch to contentACCESS. contentGATE was used to migrate more than 30TB and 150+ million emails. It was crucial that emails from both archives would stay accessible during the whole migration time. And this was possible thanks to our contentACCESS’s virtual migration capability, which allows all users to access the Metalogix archive exploiting a native access directly to the archive store and database.

• Office365

PPF was looking for a new email archiving solution with the ability to support Microsoft 365 (formerly Microsoft 365). A hybrid coexistence of the On-Premises and Cloud world, as well as mobile access to the archived emails, were neccessary. contentACCESS fulfilled all the requirements and provided PPF with even more benefits. Thanks to contentGATE, the former archiving solution 'Enterprise Vault' was migrated in few days, transferring more than 11TB and 30+ million emails.

HKL Baumaschinen in Hamburg were facing a huge challenge. They had to decide between an update of their existing EMC Dell Source One email archive or the implementation of a better solution. Based on new archiving requirements, to have an automated, reliable, and secure archive, contentACCESS has been chosen as their destination and contentGATE became the best tool for this migration. contentGATE helped to migrate 4,6 TB of EMC Source One data and 24+ million archived items into contentACCESS. contentGATE was the best solution for migrating PST’s into contentACCESS while staying compliant to all regulations.

• Office365

The Coutts & Co Bank in Zürich has been planning the transition of Microsoft 365 (formerly Microsoft 365) for a long time. Prior to Exchange Online, an On-premises Exchange was used together with Saperion ELM email archive. Saperion ELM was used to offload emails from mailboxes, replacing emails with their shortcuts. The target was to fully reintegrate the original emails through their shortcuts back into Microsoft 365. Also the restoration of all archived emails was planned, migrating them back into Microsoft 365's live and archived mailboxes under a new folder. Using contentGATE, both goals were easily and quickly achieved.

• How much time does the migration take?

  Time of the migration depends on these specifications: a. Performance of the old environment – Store, Database and VMs performance, b. Where are we migrating to – Exchange is usually the bottle neck, c. Even the internet connection can play a role (connected to client’s location), d. Performance of the new (target) environment The best way to determine the migration speed is through a test migration / POC – prove of concept phase of the project.

• What migration possibilities do I have?

  To migrate your data first, then shortcuts: In this strategy, the data are migrated in the background. User can access the data from the former archive until the new archive is switched to production. The shortcuts are migrated as soon as the switch is done. After that, the user can use all his new applications to access his archive. Conclusion: a. all data available, full-text search is ready (depending on target system), b. no time pressure, c. no risk of losing access to data. To migrate shortcuts first, then data: This strategy is useful if the new archive needs to be used immediately and the user wants to migrate emails that are already archived but still present in his mailboxes. The shortcut migration ensures that the active (live) data in mailboxes are migrated first. Emails or shortcuts, which are not active (live) in mailboxes, are migrated during the data migration. The emails that are already migrated through the shortcut migration are skipped during the data migration and no duplicates are created. Conclusion: a) The user can immediately use the new archive; live data are available in short time, b) More time is needed until the full archive is built (inactive data). It is also possible to apply different strategies for different users.

• Can I run multiple migrations at the same time? Will I create duplicates if I run the migration multiple times?

  Yes, you can run multiple migrations at the same time, also from different sources - PST and Metalogix for example. contentGATE keeps a record of already migrated items, therefore no items are migrated twice.

• Can I prioritize / select what users will be migrated at which point?

  Migration is group-based, and the migration group can contain any selected users. You can prioritize users by adding them to a migration group and starting their migration ahead of others.

• Can I migrate deleted / inactive users?

  Yes, the inactive users can be migrated to the new target system /archive. The inactive users can also be exported to PST files, the folder structure will be kept.

• How can I check if all the data has been successfully migrated?

  At the end of every migration, a migration report can be generated and compared with the prior generated archive size report. You can also run search queries within your report to find a proof of every migrated item.

• How can I check my license usage?

  In contentGATE, there is an option to check the “License usage information” that will provide you with the exact license usage info.
