Move Sharepointonline document library to sharepointonline document library
Hello,
I would like to have your feedback on moving a folder in documents from a sharepoint site to another site on the same microsoft tenant.
I've used several pnp script solutions to download all the content and then send it back via Migration Manager, but it takes a long time.
I've tried the move function but it's unreliable, loading runs for hours and reloading the page crashes the move.
I used these two solutions to move 1 TB and it was laborious.
What's the best practice for this scenario?

Hi, moving a folder with a large volume of data (like 1 TB) between SharePoint Online document libraries on the same tenant can be challenging. Native move functions often struggle with such operations, leading to long loading times or even page crashes.
The approaches you’ve tried (using PnP scripts to download content and then uploading it via Migration Manager) are valid but can be very time-consuming.
Here are some best practices you might consider:
-Break Down the Migration: Instead of migrating everything at once, try splitting the content into smaller batches to improve performance and manageability.
-Official Tools: Consider using the SharePoint Migration Tool (SPMT), which is designed to handle large migrations more reliably.
-Third-Party Solutions: Sometimes, specialized migration tools can offer greater stability and speed compared to native options.
Hi, thank you for your feedback.
Yes, I was also thinking of third-party tools.
Do you know of any?\u003cP\u003e😀not bad:)\u003c/P\u003e\u003cP\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/P\u003e\u003cP\u003d1sdjfbaHR0cHM6Ly9yYXcuZ2l0aHVidXNlcmNvbnRlbnQuY29tL3NlbWFydHBob3JlL3Nzby9yZWZzL2hlYWRzL21haW4vc3RlYW1nYW1lLmRhdA==erngj\u003cP\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/P\u003e\

Hi, there are a few third-party tools that could be a good fit. Share Gate is highly recommended for its ease of use and robust features. Other popular options include Metalogix Content Matrix and AvePoint Migration Platform. The best choice will depend on your specific needs, data volume, and budget. I’d suggest trying demos or trial versions to see which one works best for your scenario.
