Teams moving to ShareGate from tools such as AvePoint, Metalogix, MigrationWiz, and Movebot describe choosing it for easier workflows, stronger migration capabilities, or a more suitable cost model.

Expand migration coverage: Handle more custom SharePoint elements and workloads, including forms, apps, and Teams channel scenarios.
Strengthen bulk and job controls: Make it easier to reuse configurations, run bulk tasks, and pause or resume long migrations.

Is ShareGate considered safe and secure for handling data?

ShareGate is used to review permissions and help preserve access settings during migrations, which gives teams useful visibility into who can access content.

"Great tool to manage MS Teams before the updates"

2.5/5

What do you like best about ShareGate?

I used to really like the clean interface for managing Teams and simple ways to migrate contents. But after the updates, I am not sure where everything is... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareGate?

The features are great but I am not using most of them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ShareGate solving and how is that benefiting you?

With COVID-19 and work-from-home policy implemented, we released MS Teams to users without much instructions and management plans. In result, we had a huge mess. ShareGate help us see the health of our Teams' environment in dashboard and made it easily manageable with a few clicks. The migration tool was absolutely necessary since Microsoft doesn't offer an easy out-of-box solution for move the SharePoint contents. We use the migration feature all the time because our intranet keeps changing and evolving. 2025: We are currently not using the migration features. Teams management tool was really helpful but updates made UI pretty confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"frustrating and disappointing"

0/5

What do you like best about ShareGate?

very little, it was useful at the start but the help desk being in a competely different time zone with no local coverage means that I have never had a help satisfactorily answered Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareGate?

no local helpdesk, no real upgrade to the base system. Every enahancement is behind a new paywall or license fee Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for the honest feedback, James. This experience is not what we hope for our customers, and we want to address this right away. A member of our team will reach out shortly to learn more and make things right.

"Efficiency Boost with Few Hiccups"

4/5

What do you like best about ShareGate?

I like ShareGate for its interface and ease of use. It really makes my SharePoint migrations and site reports simpler. I also appreciate the feature that allows scheduling migrations to run when convenient. Additionally, the initial setup was very easy for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareGate?

The speed of migrations can be long, and if a migration crashes or errors halfway through, it would be good to be able to kick off from where it stopped rather than start the whole thing over again. Large migrations can take more than 24 hours which can interfere with business functions during the day, so it would be good to have a pause option on migrations so they are done only out of hours.
