Box migrations,
without scripts.
Mover is the data-migration tool from Files.com. One-time moves between 20+ providers — no subscriptions, no surprises, no scripts.
Migrate data to or from Box with Mover. Move between Box accounts, consolidate into a single Enterprise tenant, or shift teams to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace — without exporting and re-uploading by hand.
BoxThe Box story
Why customers move to and from Box
Box's strongest pull is compliance-driven — regulated industries already on Box bring their counterparties in. Outbound moves are usually M365 or Workspace standardizations. Hundreds of Box migrations later, those two stories cover most of it.
Aligning with a regulated-industry partner ecosystem on Box
Box has invested heavily in compliance and is the de facto standard in segments of healthcare and financial services. Customers whose partners, customers, or auditors are on Box pull files into it for shared workflows.
Consolidating scattered personal accounts into Box Enterprise
Companies formalizing an existing Box footprint move personal-account data into a centrally-managed Box Enterprise tenant for billing, identity, and compliance.
Coming off legacy file servers
Decommissioning Windows file servers, SMB shares, or aging NAS appliances into Box as part of a cloud-first push, especially in regulated industries.
Standardizing on Microsoft 365
The most common Box migration. Teams moving to M365 shift Box content into OneDrive or SharePoint to land on one identity, billing, and storage layer.
Standardizing on Google Workspace
Teams moving to Workspace shift Box content into Google Drive as part of the transition.
Reducing per-seat cost at scale
Box per-user pricing adds up at scale. Customers with primarily-archival data move it to S3, Azure Blob, GCS, or a discount storage tier at a fraction of the per-TB cost.
Archiving to object storage
Inactive or compliance-retained data moved to a cheaper at-rest tier with longer-term retention rules.
Common pairings
Pair Box with any cloud.
Box migrations rarely happen in isolation. These are the providers we pair with most often — one-click setup on either side, same dry-run flow, same audit trail.
Connection
How Mover connects.
Mover connects to Box the standard way. Provide the credential, nothing more — generate a scoped token if you want minimum-privilege.
Box OAuth
Standard sign-in flow. Authorize Mover against your Box account and pick the Box you want to migrate to or from. For migrations across Box Enterprise tenants, run the OAuth flow once per side.
The price
The pricing math, honestly.
Mover charges as low as $0.15 / GB when purchasing a 10 TB pack. Your Box-side cost depends on direction. No invoice math, no surprises — the dry-run shows the exact number before you commit.
Provider side
no inbound fees
Mover
When purchasing a 10 TB pack
Box doesn't charge an inbound transfer fee. Storage is bundled into your Box plan; the cost is the per-user seat, not per-GB.
Provider side
no egress fees
Mover
When purchasing a 10 TB pack
Box doesn't charge an egress fee. Migrating data out costs only Mover's fee plus the destination's inbound rate (usually nothing).
