CodeTwo Exchange Migration vs Shoviv Email Migration Tools

CodeTwo Exchange Migration is a server application for moving mailboxes and public folders into on-premises Exchange Server Subscription Edition. Sources include earlier Exchange versions, Microsoft 365, hosted Exchange and IMAP systems. Exchange Server 2013 and newer can move directly to Subscription Edition. The software supports cross-forest and cross-domain moves, staged and hybrid migrations, and delta passes that copy new items without duplicating migrated ones. IMAP sources include Google Workspace, HCL Notes, Rackspace, Zimbra, Kopano and Kerio Connect. Administrators can schedule jobs, filter by time or folder, choose item types and monitor detailed reports. Installation runs in the customer environment without third-party migration tools or cloud services. Connections are encrypted, and Microsoft 365 uses OAuth 2.0 without storing credentials. Calendar and contact migration are supported; tenant-to-tenant moves are not. A 30-day trial is available, while paid licenses include support and updates.

Shoviv Email Migration Tools is Windows software for moving Exchange mailboxes between on-premises Exchange and Microsoft 365. It supports all versions of on-premises Exchange and Microsoft 365 as sources and targets, including Microsoft 365 tenant-to-tenant migration. Multiple mailboxes can be processed, with no stated restriction on mailbox size or mailbox count. The tool migrates shared, public-folder, and archive mailboxes. Incremental export can resume an interrupted job and carry new or changed items on a later run. Filters can target dates, folders, or item types, and jobs can run daily, weekly, or monthly. Shoviv describes standalone installation in the customer environment, with no third-party tools or cloud services used for migration and no source-data modification. Windows and Windows Server are supported, with Windows 10 or 11 recommended and 32-bit and 64-bit architectures listed. A free trial processes or saves the first 50 items per folder.
