Migration Manager – simplify file share migrations
Migration Manager is now generally available. It is a key part of the SharePoint admin center, to help orchestrate and simplify management of file share migrations. Admins can add and manage multiple migration agents to centrally orchestrate all migration activities.
Migration Manager lets you migrate your on-premises file share content to Microsoft 365. Through a simple interface within the SharePoint admin center, admins can manage thousands of migration tasks across multiple machines.

SharePoint Migration Tool (SPMT) – accelerate on-premises migrations of SharePoint
The SharePoint Migration Tool (SPMT) is a simple and fast solution to help you migrate content from on-premises SharePoint Server sites and file shares to SharePoint, OneDrive, and now Microsoft Teams in Microsoft 365. It is designed to help you bring your information to the cloud and take advantage of the latest collaboration, intelligence, and security solutions within Microsoft 365.
Using the SharePoint Migration Tool, you can quickly bring your most important content to Microsoft Teams to create a more open, digital environment. The tool makes it easy to select Teams that you are an owner of, to then set them as the destination(s) for the migration. The tool will also let you select what specific channel you want the content to go into. Parallel to SPMT is the SharePoint Migration Assessment Tool (SMAT), a simple command line executable that scans the contents of your SharePoint farm to help identify the impact of migrating your server to SharePoint with Microsoft 365.
