Edgar da Silva wanted a better migration tool. Although experienced with moving customers into Google Workspace, finding a tool that was comprehensive, reliable, and without an unreasonable price tag was a challenge.
Research brought da Silva to Movebot, and he noticed that the company is based in New Zealand. Having good experiences with NZ customers in the past, he decided to take a deeper look and try out the tool.
First Impressions
It quickly became clear that Movebot was different. Obstacles that felt like fundamental aspects of migrations like uncertain timeframes, disruptive processes, and complicated configurations didn't happen with Movebot.
The first Google migration was particularly impressive. "It was even faster than projected," da Silva said, earning a pleased customer by exceeding expectations.
One aspect of Movebot that stood out was ease of use, "any person can jump in and start working from their service and be able to do it. That's how good it is."
The ease of use combined with the knowledge base articles and a support team that is helpful and responsive made The Noctilucent Project confident that they could use Movebot going forward.
Favourite features
There are a few features that The Noctilucent Project noted made Movebot stand out from other migration tools:
Movebot is browser-based and doesn't require managing machines or infrastructure
Non-intrusive delta migrations where users can work in the source right up to cutover
Pricing is transparent and fair, and it's easy to estimate migration costs
“It's been my go-to tool. I just use this for all my migrations.”
Moving forward
After some more uses, The Noctilucent Project found that Movebot fit their needs better than any other migration tool. "They're just literally a couple steps ahead", da Silva said when asked about where he thinks Movebot thrives. "It works more than fine, it's just perfect."
Having a reliable tool means the company can focus on other things in the business instead of babysitting migration projects. "You need to move customers fast, but with a higher rate of satisfaction and make sure that snowball effect keeps going and gets you more and more," da Silva said about Movebot's combination of speed and not having to constantly check for errors.
Now, Movebot is the only migration tool The Noctilucent Project uses. “It's been my go-to tool. I just use this for all my migrations.”
