Profuse HR Consultancy – Google Workspace to Zoho Workplace Migration

1. Background

Profuse HR Consultancy, a mid-sized enterprise, relied on Google Workspace for email, collaboration, and storage. Over time, increased subscription costs, fragmented data across multiple drives, and operational inefficiencies created barriers to productivity. The organization sought consolidation within the Zoho ecosystem to improve collaboration, reduce costs, and simplify administration.

2. Objective

The primary goal was to migrate all communication and file-management systems from Gmail and Google Drive to Zoho Mail and Zoho WorkDrive without disrupt­ing business operations. The project aimed to deliver a seamless transition with zero data loss and minimal downtime.

3. Key Challenges

Before migration, the organization faced several bottlenecks:

  • Rising Google Workspace costs.
    • Scattered, unorganized data across multiple drives.
    • Limited integration with internal tools and workflows.
    • Complex alias and forwarding setups across departments.
    • Operational inefficiencies due to multi-platform dependency.

4. Solution & Implementation

FusionHawk executed a structured end-to-end migration using Zoho’s native tools:

1. Email, Calendar & Contacts Migration

        • Gmail → Zoho Mail via Zoho Mail Migration Tool.
        • Calendar and contact data fully transferred.

2. Drive & Shared Folder Migration

        • Google Drive → Zoho WorkDrive using TrueSync Import and CLI tools.
        • Folder structures, permissions, and shared-drive hierarchies replicated exactly.

3. DNS & Security Setup

        • MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC configured for secure email delivery.
        • 2FA and security policies aligned with Zoho best practices.

5. Validation & Training

    • Data integrity verified post-migration.
    • Users and admins trained on Zoho Mail and WorkDrive collaboration.
