A possitive experience for a needed product.

Pros

Helped us in complex migration scenarios where time is at the escence. Without this tool the manual taks and controls could delay the process for weeks.

Cons

Cost per user and process time, in some cases the cost per user is a hard sell for customers.

This tool has improved in the past year. The new layout the team did in the past 6 months has greatly improved the experience and I think will help partners like Onix sell it more.

Pros

As a remote company that is Cloud based (we don't have a traditional LDAP, etc) , we have the opportunity to allow our end-users to update their own information in CloudM Manage based on the information that they want to provide. I love this idea because it is empowering our users to take control of the information, especially if they are moving to new places or getting new phone numbers, we take out IT as the middleman. This is actually part of our onboarding process to have the new employee go fill out this information!

From an administrator/implementation, I enjoy the domain insights and the ability to have smart groups. Smart groups are HUGE considering Google has not had dynamic groups and even now coming out in beta that is fairly limited. Smart groups are more intuitive for administrators who aren't skilled in APIs so it still one-ups the future of dynamic groups in Google.

Lastly "MIGRATE" Email in the offboarding! This is HUGE! Other tools don't offer this as a deprovisioning workflow.

Cons

I think it's still not as intuitive to create different smart contacts and groups by utilizing the search functionality. That always trips me up a bit. Also I wish in the "Roles" section you could see who all is assigned to the different roles. This can be a bit confusing.

Migrating from Micro Focus Groupwise to gMail. It did not go smoothly.

Pros

It provided lots of options for source and destination platforms, and lots of ways to handle and translate data.

Cons

It simply did not work for a large portion of my users, and support is near non-existent. Unable to actually speak to anyone about support, multiple days between emails from support, generally asking for you to send duplicates of logs that you already sent. Possibly the worst support experience with any paid company that I've ever experienced.

Response from CloudM

Thankyou for the fair feedback. We will be in contact regarding this.

Works for a messy job - SLOW

We used this software to move from an outside separate Gsuite into a combined divisional Gsuite. We also used it for bringing in O365 into our Divisional Gsuite.

Again, slow as molasses. Support was marginal, especially when you need it the most.

Also, transitioning a domain name over from Gsuite to Gsuite can't be done easily because no two Gsuite accounts can have the same name. That means, there is a block of time 8-48 hours minimum that may miss messages.

Pros

The software does what it's supposed to do by moving items from Gsuite to Gsuite, O365 to Gsuite. This includes Google Drive and all updates.

Cons

It's so slow.

The process of moving items across takes days. Just to run an update (not many files changing takes 8-48 hours). This makes planning a transition difficult. There's seems to be no way to speed it up and support was unhelpful in this process. I don't know if this is specifically because of API limits or what?

Once you do the transition from Gsuite to Gsuite and then rename the accounts, it breaks the link, possibly leaving possibly many emails and docs not transitioned over.

Response from CloudM

Thanks for the review Tyler, we will definitely be looking into what we can do to speed up the process!

The overall experience has been very helpfull, especially on the onboarding-offboarding process, avoiding human error.

Pros

CloudM Manage supports an onboarding and offboarding management which works very well. For many, including us, onboarding-offboarding of employees is a repetitive, tiring and rather time consuming tasks. but everyone knows its importances. For so long, we have been doing it all manually, but now with cloudM, our onboardin-offboarding tasks are finished very soon, with very little margin of error because all can be started, managed, from a single platform. The user management features are also very helpful, now we can utilize our budget better that we have a way to monitor license usage, determine which license is not fully optimized and/or utilized and can be reduced. Vice versa, we can determin what license is required more than others.

Cons

We are hoping that CloudM Manage could also monitor endpoint and add features in EndPoint monitoring and management. The Email signature is i think nice to have, but not necessarily crucial.

Response from CloudM

Thank you for the feedback Robby, we will certainly look at your suggestions for future development.

It has been a great experience, the company behind this app has great knowledge about Google's environment and API use to enable features that are helpful to speed up admin tasks and save time.

Pros

CloudM Manage is a great admin tool, the installation is very easy and the features include the most common needed by companies:
- SSO
- email signature
- Group Management
- User Management (Provision and De provisioning workflows are great)

It has some security insights that are basic but very helpful to trigger a more in depth security review.

Cons

The menu can be more intuitive and some features need to be separated for better management.

Effective for completing migrations from a variety of sources to varied destinations. The documentation is well written and the interface is effective and simple. Great product overall.

Pros

The web browser user interface makes the process seamless and easy to deploy in a matter of minutes.

Cons

The challenge I often face with this tool is the purchasing of the licensing. The online portal allows for a minimum of 25 users but I have in the past done migrations for less than 25 users which extends the purchase process as I need to go directly through the sales team, but still a great solution otherwise.

Have used it several times to move companies from Microsoft Office 365 to Google G-Suite. I've run the migrations from on Amazon VM each time. Migration is very fast and reliable.

I even had one migration where my licenses had expired, emailed their tech support after hours on the Saturday morning I was planning to start the migration and a guy called me back from England and helped me get it going. Very cool

Pros

Does one thing and does it very well. Moved all the mailboxes and has great status and reporting afterwards to track down any problems.

Cons

Nothing really bad. Did take a little bit to figure out where to plugin the licenses but once you understand how the interface is laid out, it's real simple and consistent throughout the product.

Our overall experience as an integrator for our clients is that CloudM is the best tool available for our use. We have been working with their tools for many years.

Pros

The software is the only tool we use for our migrations to Google Workspace. We have worked with CloudM for years and always find the product to be very functional for our purposes and do not look elsewhere.

Cons

It can be a little pricey on a per user license basis. However, we judge that cost by the cost of not migrating files/folders correctly and it no longer becomes a barrier.

Found that this software has been quite easy to use, and gives good reporting at the end as to what did and didn't get migrated

Cons

The speed of the migration is limited by thread, so it takes the same amount of time to move 1 user as it does to move 20, which is a little odd. When moving many users, doesn't make a difference, but kinda weird for smaller moves.

Best In Class

Reviewed on 2020/11/12

Pros

In this case we decided to go with the managed migration. We've used the product in the past on our own and while fairly straight forward, we thought we'd leave this new project up to the professionals. Working with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] has been a great experience. They're both very helpful and quick responders, despite the time difference.

Cons

From the one occasion we used this on our own, we noticed the software only runs 10 users at a time which could make migrations for large companies take a lot longer than it would for a smaller organization.
