New File Server Agent Release




Movebot released updated file server agent

Moving files to and from on-prem servers and the cloud just got easier. We've released a brand new file server agent, built from the ground up to be more robust with better performance, increased security, and easier customization options. Here's some upgrades you can find in the new agent. 

 

Automatic Updates

A drawback of our previous file server release was that the update process was manual, and you would need to re-download and reenter your connection information to update. Not anymore. The new agent will let you know when an update is available and let you apply it without any manual processes. 

 

Performance and security

We've made major performance improvements to the backend agent and you should see better results for your migrations. Migrating to or from file servers is more robust in terms of file sanity, and security fixes and enhancements keep data protected. 

 

Windows and OSX versions

We’ve included two updated Mac versions of the agent and dropped support for Windows 2012 servers to focus on versions still receiving ongoing support. You can still migrate to and from Windows 2012 using virtual machines. 

 

Easier Customization

Advanced options like proxy server configurations, logging, and debugging can now be found directly in the agent. You'll find links to the config file and local logs in the options section, and on Windows machines, you have the ability to run the agent as a service with one click.

 

Simple Setup process

Setting up the new agent is fast and simple.

  1. Configure a connection for Microsoft Windows/Apple OSX and download the agent. It will be called Couchdrop - Movebot Cloud Connector.
  2. Run the agent on the target device you want to migrate to/from
  3. Copy the unique token from Movebot, paste it into the agent, and test the connection

And that’s it! Movebot will be able to connect to the server and NAS devices on the same network.

Straightforward pricing with no hidden fees

Forget complex pricing based on users and licenses. Simply pay for the amount of data you move and nothing else.

“Simple to use – outstanding support.”

Movebot's support team was legendary in their quick responses and willingness to jump on a video conference to talk through how to resolve the problems. They have deep knowledge of their product and of the file storage platforms their solution is built for. We can approach future migrations with a lot less trepidation – given the accuracy and speed of Movebot, but especially because of their support team.

“Efficient, Reliable, and Exceptionally Supported”

Movebot has been an indispensable tool for our MSP looking for an efficient and reliable data migration solution. Our experience with it across various platforms, including SharePoint, Egnyte, on-prem file servers migrating to SharePoint, and O365 tenant to tenant migrations has been exceptionally positive. Their support team is responsive, offering assistance via and Discord, which was great in a pinch.

“A Game Changer In Data Migration”

Movebot.io emerges as a frontrunner in data migration tools. Its rapid data transfers, user-intuitive interface, and compatibility across cloud platforms mark it as a standout. Added security measures bolster data protection. In the realm of data migration, Movebot.io truly transforms the landscape, offering a streamlined and elevated experience.

“Great team, great product!”

We needed a tool for moving large data sets with detailed enough logging to give us confidence in the successful move of millions of files and folders. Previous tools we used choked on large data sets (>1TB or > 1 Million files) or the logging was too simplistic for us know find errors or have confidence in deleting the source data set at the end of the migration. Movebot solved this for us.

“When you put dedication, attention to detail and quality support, you get this.”

I tried several competitors, and there was always something: lack of human contact, price, quality, speed, etc. I started looking around and ended up meeting with the VP of Sales for Movebot, he jumped on a call, and we went over the product, capability, and next steps and WOW. I have been using Movebot for a while now, and to be honest, there is no one out there doing the job the way they do.

“Amazing tool for migrations!”

Fantastic experience... We were able to do a file migration for a high-priority / high-touch client and move them to Azure AD from their on-prem environment in approximately 48 hours. The scanning and the data move itself really felt seamless. Thank you so much for the tool and to your incredible team!
