Three user scenarios for easy email migration into G Suite

If you are interested in using our G Suite email migration tool, there are three primary use cases for your consideration:

  • End-user driven (online)
  1. Firstly, create all the user accounts within your new G Suite domain. Follow the steps located here for bulk or individual user creation.
  2. Go to the Marketplace website and install our tool following this link.
  3. Click on “Domain install” to allow your users to migrate their email by themselves.
  4. Send them an email including these steps on how to begin migrating. Your users will be able to migrate their email by themselves at https://gsuite.shuttlecloud.com
  • Admin-driven (online)

As a G Suite Admin, you can migrate all the email accounts of your organization by yourself. You have to follow similar steps to the ones detailed above:

  1. Once you create all the user accounts within your new domain, go the Marketplace website and install our tool following this link.
  2. Then, click on “Domain install.”
  3. After launching the app, you will be taken directly to https://gsuite.shuttlecloud.com. From here, as an administrator, you will be able to migrate messages from the old email accounts into the new user accounts one by one.
  • Admin-driven (offline)

You can provide us with a CSV, and we will load all those migrations for you. You will have to follow the steps below:

  1. Write to project@shuttlecloud.com asking for our bulk migration option, and we will provide you with the cost, instructions and a template for the CSV.
    • (The template requires the old user email address, old user password, and mapping from old email to the new G Suite email address).
  2. Create all the user accounts within your new domain. Follow the steps located here for bulk or individual user creation.
  3. Go to the Marketplace website and install our tool following this link. Then, click on “Domain install.”

The first step to migrate your emails from Gmail is to either launch the app previously installed in your G Suite domain (see the following help article for details on how to launch the app) or by visiting: https://gsuite.shuttlecloud.com.

In Step 1 you will be selecting the Supported Providers option and typing in the email address and password information of your Gmail account.

Step 2 is very similar, except you will be selecting the destination account to which the emails are migrating into, this can be an account in your G Suite domain or a consumer @gmail.com email address.

Step 3 is simply adding the email address you want to be contacted once your migration has begun, as well as when your migration has completed.

What is the difference between ShuttleCloud integrated within Gmail and the ShuttleCloud G Suite Marketplace Tool?

Depending on what your final goal is, you will be better off using 1. ShuttleCloud’s integration within Gmail or 2. the ShuttleCloud Migration Tool in the G Suite Marketplace.

1. If what you want is to import mail and/or contacts to your Gmail or G Suite account from a prior webmail provider such as Hotmail or Yahoo then the ShuttleCloud app within Gmail is the best option for you!

Your users will be able to complete their migrations following the steps in this article: https://blog.shuttlecloud.com/how-do-i-import-email-from-another-email-account-into-a-gmail/ or if you prefer a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEeorOjbbNU&t=

2. If, on the other hand, what you want to do is import emails to your G Suite account from a business email provider such as G Suite, Office 365, or others, then the ShuttleCloud Migration Tool in the G Suite Marketplace App is what you are looking for! This option includes bulk import and dedicated support.

You may install it following these steps: https://support.shuttlecloud.com/article/362-how-to-install-the-shuttlecloud-migration-app or if you prefer a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X02g-bKkR7U

So, going a bit deeper. What is the difference between both options?

ShuttleCloud integrated within Gmail:
– It’s a free service provided by Gmail.
– User-driven migration within the Gmail interface.
– Migrates from most consumer email systems (e.g., Yahoo, Gmail, Outlook, AOL, etc.).
– G Suite admins can activate the service for end-user-driven migrations within Gmail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1o5X7d0mWY&t=7s
– Includes email forwarding and contacts import capabilities.

ShuttleCloud G Suite Marketplace app
– Has 1 free migration, then each additional migration is $19.95.
– Includes dedicated support and advice from G Suite Experts.
– Admin-driven or user-driven from a separate interface to Gmail’s UI. (email us about admin-driven bulk migrations)
– Provides support for consumer email providers, business email providers, and custom IMAPs.

How to enable importing from other webmail hosts in G Suite

The admin can allow their users to import email and contacts from non-Google webmail accounts, such as Yahoo!, Hotmail, or AOL. First, you must enable this feature in your Google Admin console. After that, users will see an extra function in the Accounts tab in Gmail settings.

To enable importing from other webmail hosts:

  1. Sign in to the Google Admin console.
  2. From the dashboard, go to Apps > G Suite > Gmail > Advanced settings.
  3. In the Setup section, check the box next to User email uploads to let users see the option to import mail and contacts from webmail or POP3 accounts, such as Yahoo!, Hotmail, or AOL.
  4. Tip: If you don’t see this section, select your account’s top-level organization under Organizations at the top of the page. This feature isn’t available when a sub-organization is selected.
  5. Click Save. There might be a delay before changes take effect.
  6. Tell your users to go to Gmail > Settings to start the import process. Check out our help articles, How Do I Import Email from Another Email Account Into Gmail? and How to import contacts into Google Contacts?.
