Cigati Google Drive Migration Tool

While it can also be carried out manually, data migration between cloud-based storage and data sharing platforms is easier to do with a dedicated tool. One example is Cigati Google Drive Migration Tool, which provides a quick and easy method to migrate or backup data from Google Drive to OneDrive, another Google Drive account or a local disk.

Featuring a wizard-like user interface, Cigati Google Drive Migration Tool is very intuitive and easy to use. Migrating your data from Google Drive becomes a matter of clicking on a few “Next” buttons, with minimum interaction that mainly requires you to select the folders to migrate.

The first wizard screen allows you to select the location where the action log and the temporary files will be saved. To move forward, you must first authorize the application to access your Google Drive account by signing in in the opened browser window. This allows the application to import a list of all the files and folders in the cloud in the next step. Importing all the data takes more or less time, depending on the size of the files and directories, but the entire operation should not take more than a minute or two.

All the files and folders in your Google Drive are shown in a tree-like view, each having a checkbox that marks the selection. The application also reveals the total storage space in the cloud, as well as the used space and the amount of data in the trash folder.

Cigati Google Drive Migration Tool features a few file filters that allow you to make your data selections easier. Files can be filtered by type (extension) or their timestamp, meaning you can set a time interval for both the date of a file’s creation and its last modification. What is more, the application can eliminate duplicates in the backup and free up the server space, meaning it can delete the original files stored on Google Drive.

The last step is to choose the destination of the data backup or migration, be it another Google Drive account, a OneDrive account, or a local folder.

Cigati Google Drive Migration Tool provides a quick and easy method to migrate or backup data stored on Google Drive. Although cloud storage is one of the most popular backup modes, keeping your eggs in more than one basket is never a bad idea.
