Movebot

Movebot migrates files, team drives and personal data between platforms, and it prices by the volume moved rather than by seats or a project licence. File migrations are seventy five cents or less per gigabyte in United States dollars, with equivalent rates published in euros, pounds and Australian dollars.

Per gigabyte pricing is a genuinely different commercial model in this category and it suits a particular buyer. A migration is a finite piece of work, so paying for the data actually moved rather than an annual licence means a one off project costs a one off amount, which is the honest shape for what is being bought.

It also makes estimation possible before committing. An organisation can measure what it holds, multiply, and know roughly what the migration will cost, which is not possible with quote based competitors where the figure arrives after a discovery call.

The model's limitation appears at large volumes. A migration of many terabytes may cost more under per gigabyte pricing than a flat licence would, so the crossover point is worth calculating rather than assuming against a competitor quoting a flat project fee. Multi channel support is included at every tier and a free trial is offered, which together mean a small organisation can run a real test transfer, see the throughput it actually achieves against its own providers, and price the full move from measured data rather than from an estimate.
