Switching from ShareGate? Keep the workloads. Halve the bill. Gain resume.
ShareShift migrates file shares, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams and Planner with fidelity, pauses and resumes anything, and never routes your content through our cloud. $2,995 a year against ShareGate Essentials at US$5,995, or $499 a month with no commitment.
30-day free trial, full product, card taken at checkout, nothing charged until day 30. Windows and macOS. App-only authentication as Microsoft requires.

The four things the renewal quote made you think about
Everything Essentials moves, and more
File shares, SharePoint Online with lists, columns, content types, pages and navigation, OneDrive, Teams with private channels and chat archives, and Planner. Authors, timestamps and versions intact.
Pause, stop, schedule, resume
Every step is persisted. Stop a run, lose power, switch machines: it picks up where it left off. ShareGate's own FAQ says its migrations can only be cancelled.
Three workers, unlimited concurrent jobs
Every plan includes three workers and each runs as many jobs as it can hold. ShareGate Essentials is one machine running one migration at a time.
Worker-only, never a processor
The app runs on machines you control and pushes straight into Microsoft-provided storage in your tenant. Our licence server holds aggregate counts and nothing else.
Same workloads. Half the price. Resume built in.

Coming from another tool?
Every comparison uses the vendor's own published prices and limits, with a section on where they are stronger than us. How switching works.
Try it on your own tenant before you decide
Full product, three workers, every workload and no data limit for 30 days. Pick a plan, add a card, and pay nothing until day 30; cancel before then from your portal and there is no charge. The key is issued the moment checkout completes.
Mid-project with another tool?
ShareShift re-runs are incremental, so it can finish a migration another tool started, copying only what is new or changed. User mapping CSVs can be reused. Read how switching works.
