Movebot keeps data migrations simple for MSPs | Movebot - Data Agility

When it comes to technological change or optimization of services and platforms, Managed service partners (MSPs) are trusted partners for their clients.  Clients rely on their MSPs as experts, and as such, they expect MSPs to use the optimum solutions for their projects. One of these solutions is Movebot, a tool that offers actionable insights and agility for your customers' data and has many benefits for MSPs. 

 
 
 

Benefits of Movebot for MSPs

Movebot for MSPs delivers data insights and allows scalable, fast, secure, and cost-effective data migrations.  Whether it’s an on-premises solution moving to over 30 cloud platforms or cloud-to-cloud data migration ( Google to Google Workspace ), Movebot scales from a few hundred GB to several PB of data transferred quickly, accurately, and securely. 

Movebot is built on Couchdrop’s modern cloud-native architecture meaning it is infrastructure-free and scales to any amount of data (even PB scale), there’s no need to worry about spinning up and managing compute power - Movebot does all of the heavy lifting. Movebot’s architecture means that data is never stored at rest and is fully encrypted in transit, meaning your data is always secure and transfers quickly. 

 

Self-service data transfers for MSPs

Movebot is designed to be a self-service tool, especially for MSPs.  We believe in reinforcing the MSPs trusted client relationship, setting migration projects up for success, and providing great support if and when needed. MSPs can set the project up for success by getting a full overview of the data to be migrated with a scan or through Explorer.  This helps find any potential issues as well as a measure of the true amount of data to be migrated (and therefore cost) prior to the actual data migration.

Movebot’s FREE pre-migration scan provides a full overview of the data, its structure and any potential issues which will generally be taken care of automatically by the tool. We always recommend that this free scan is done to set up the migration for success. 

Movebot has partnerships with a number of key platform providers Dropbox (Strategic Migration Partner), Google Cloud, Microsoft, Backblaze, Egnyte, and Box, making it easy for MSPs working with these platforms to use Movebot.
