September 9, 2021 Google

You can migrate your users’ email data to Google Workspace using the data migration service if you’re migrating from:

Microsoft Exchange Server 2003, 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, or Exchange Online (Microsoft 365).
A webmail provider that uses the IMAP protocol, such as 1&1 IONOS, AOL, Apple iCloud, Bluehost, Yahoo!, or Zoho.
Another Google Workspace account.
A personal Gmail (@gmail.com) account

You must be signed in as a super administrator for this task.

Here’s the Google Workspace migration product matrix. It will tell you what tool is best to use for each type of email source.
