Box to Google Drive Migration

Move your team off Box and onto Google Drive, files, folder structure, collaborations and version history intact. One workspace for storage, real-time co-editing and AI, with fidelity checks at every step.

Box to Google Drive migration
Quick answer

Yes, you can migrate from Box to Google Drive. Codimite, a Google Cloud Partner, moves your Box files, folders, collaborations/permissions and version history into Google Drive (My Drive and shared drives) with a phased, fidelity-checked cutover, so your team keeps its content and access while consolidating storage into Google Workspace. Box's enterprise governance features are assessed and mapped to the closest Workspace control up front.

Why migrate

Why teams move from Box to Google Drive

No separate storage bill

Drive storage is included in Google Workspace, moving off Box removes a standalone content-management subscription.

Real-time co-editing

Files in Drive open into Docs, Sheets and Slides for simultaneous editing, native, not via an add-on.

Gemini-powered search

Find files, summarize documents and ask questions across your Drive content with AI built into Workspace.

Generous pooled storage

Workspace pools storage across the org under one governance model.

One admin, one identity

Storage, mail, calendar and collaboration under a single admin console, identity provider and DLP/retention policy.

What we migrate

What we migrate from Box

Box object Migrates to Google Drive Notes
Files (all types) Files in Drive Convert to Docs/Sheets/Slides on request; counts & sizes reconciled
Folders & structure My Drive / shared-drive folders Full hierarchy preserved
Collaborations & permissions Drive sharing / shared-drive roles Access levels mapped to viewer/commenter/editor
Version history Drive version history Where exposed by source/API; current versions always move
Shared links Drive links (re-issued) Old links redirected where feasible
Governance (retention, labels) Drive labels / Vault / DLP Mapped to closest equivalent; gaps flagged in assessment

Box metadata, retention and classification coverage depend on the source plan and API access, confirmed during assessment.
